UBS Wednesday June 2, 8:02 am Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: Unique Broadband Systems, Inc. Unique Broadband Systems, Inc. delivers the first of nine high-speed wireless Internet transport systems to Bell Canada MARKHAM, ON, June 2 /CNW-PRN/ - Unique Broadband Systems, Inc. (VSE: UBS - news) has completed testing and has shipped the first transport system for Bell Canada's Wireless Internet project. This shipment represents the first of nine transport systems being built by Unique Broadband Systems, with the remaining eight systems to be shipped within the next 30 days. The project consists of a point-to-multipoint L-Band and S-Band wideband data network that will provide high-speed wireless access for up to 74 schools in rural areas of the Thames Valley District School Board and London District Catholic School Board. Unique Broadband Systems was chosen to supply the backbone of the network, a bi-directional transport system. The transport system takes the signal from the ATM network at the RF headend via S-Band to the receiver where the signal is then converted to L-Band and retransmitted to the individual school. The return path operates in the same manner, from L-Band to S-Band, for retransmission back to the RF headend and the school board offices. The transport systems designed and manufactured by Unique Broadband Systems for Bell Canada include L-Band and S-Band transmitters, receivers and transceivers. To meet Bell's requirements, both the transmitters and receivers were modified to increase efficiency and reliability through redundancy features and other enhancements and the transceivers were custom designed to meet Bell's specific bandwidth requirements.
