So much went on at IWCE over a week ago that it had to take two parts to get it all out there. And believe me, this is just scratching the surface.
Atec Wireless
If there is anyone out there who thinks they can’t actually make a purchase while attending IWCE, think again. We had a customer take one prolonged look at Atec’s iMeasure Data Collection Application for indoor (and outdoor) coverage, and bought one on the spot.
Atec has long provided engineering services for indoor networks and then added some of the tools they developed over the years. From network designing, to CW measuring tools, Atec is there to help. And believe me, they were noticed at IWCE.
Cable AML
Sometimes when I look at Cable AML, I think there is nothing they can’t do. They say, “bring me your broadband or IT problem, and we’ll find a solution.” Cable AML can provide simple licensed or unlicensed microwave data links (one hop at a time), all the way up to designing and installing your own private LTE system.
Cable AML has been operating since 1992 and has completed thousands of microwave installations in at least 54 countries. Millions of subscribers receive TV, data or telephony service through Cable AML equipment.
And Cable AML loves a challenge. If it’s about how to get broadband to your facility, call me about this amazing company. They are passionate about finding the right solution for you.
Astronics Test Systems
There is no way to mention IWCE without talking about Astronics Test Systems. You may know them better as Freedom Communications Technologies (and in fact the website is still located at https://freedomcte.com/) their test equipment is now branded as Astronics.
After a demo of the R8200, one customer asked for a quote right there. One look at the quote and he was overheard saying, “I’ll be right back with my company credit card.” Especially with their IWCE special discounts, it makes sense to buy during the show.
Their ease of use, software upgradable options, the new R8200 with an internal single port VNA, and top notch support/on-site training, makes it easy to be confident you are buying the right analyzer. Their warranty not only covers all firmware upgrades, but also a calibration each year. And yes, they turn around repairs and calibrations usually within the same week.
If you missed last week’s opportunity to see Astronics analyzers, give me a call. Or make sure you stop in at next year’s show. They’ll make it worth your while, especially if you need some digital options. I know this special pricing is expired, but if you’re thinking you need a new analyzer, remember that their special pricing may be coming around again, so don’t miss out more than once.
‘Til Next Time
Yes, it’s time to get to dog training, and believe me, my dogs need a lot of it. Remember you can always find the current list of manufactures at The Aegis Array or you can contact me at Kerry.OConnell@TheAegisArray.com or Kerry@TheSalesGroup.com, or call me at 406-930-2849. The dogs can always wait until I answer the phone…
