Harris Stratex Showcasing 'Full-Blown 4G' at Mobile World Congress

Thursday February 12, 2009, 4:15 pm EST

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Feb. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Harris Stratex Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSTX), a leading specialist in backhaul solutions for mobility and broadband networks, will showcase a "full-blown 4G" solution at the Mobile World Congress 2009 show in Barcelona, Spain, February 16-19.

The showcase will feature a live, end-to-end network demonstration of a converged services platform. The demonstration network will include a complete 4G broadband wireless ecosystem using the advanced WiMAX 802.16e standard, and will include key core elements of a wireless services gateway, core services gateway, IP wireless backhaul, mobile base stations, fixed and mobile subscriber stations -- all under a single Harris Stratex umbrella management solution.

Look for the demo at the Fira de Barcelona in Hall 2, booth #2F27.

"All of the constituent elements are deployable now and may be used to form a greenfield solution or a broadband services overlay to any existing network," said Harald Braun, Harris Stratex president and CEO. "Our complete solution enables the introduction of incremental fixed and mobile broadband services, resulting in increased revenue streams from an expanded subscriber base."

At the show, Harris Stratex will unveil breakthrough technologies designed to enhance its market-leading Eclipse wireless IP platform and support the rising backhaul demands expected during the transition to 4G. New features and capabilities on display will include greatly increased nodal and link capacities for native Ethernet/IP traffic. Other capabilities include an innovation that enables operators of existing 2G/3G networks to get the highest possible capacity from their expensive frequency spectrum investment while preparing for packet networking at the same time.

The $787B stimulus bill contains $7.2B for broadband grant and loan programs. Certainly wireless broadband is a lot more "shovel ready" than wireline broadband. How much of this might reach the HSTX top line?

The bulk of the funds directed at broadband--$4.7 billion--will be distributed through a program run by the Commerce Department, while $2.5 billion will fall under the jurisdiction of the Agriculture Department, giving particular emphasis to broadband deployment in rural areas.

NTIA (Commerce Dept)

The final version of the bill maintains that projects funded by the Commerce Department's National Telecommunications and Information Administration must adhere to nondiscrimination and openness principles. The funds must also be distributed before September 30, 2010, to projects that can be completed within two years.

The NTIA's "Broadband Technology Opportunities Program" is intended to "award competitive grants to accelerate broadband deployment in unserved and underserved areas and to strategic institutions that are likely to create jobs or provide significant public benefits," the bill says.

Rather than specify that certain portions of the NTIA funds go to rural areas, the bill says the $4.7 billion is intended to serve all parts of the country, including rural, suburban, and urban areas. The money may also go to any recipient that best serves an area's needs, including wireless providers, wireline providers, or any provider offering to construct last-mile, middle-mile, or long-haul facilities.

RUS (Agriculture Dept)

While the Senate intended to distribute only $100 million in broadband funds through the Agriculture Department's Rural Utilities Service, the final number--$2.5 billion-- is much closer to the House's plan to allocate about $2.8 billion through the RUS.

HSTX share price is down substantially today. As I see no company-specific reason, this seems due entirely to broader market fears. IMHO this is a buying opportunity.
