Ceragon Selected to Provide Connectivity to Remote Indonesian Islands and Regions

Ceragon Networks Ltd | September 27, 2021

Ceragon Networks Ltd. the global innovator and leading solutions provider of 5G wireless transport, announced today that it has secured a multi-million-dollar contract to design and supply a microwave network in Indonesia as part of an ambitious government project to provide Internet and telecom access to rural areas in the country, including schools, government offices, and hospitals. In this project, Ceragon is the primary vendor selected to provide the wireless transmission solutions for the 4G LTE access network, including design and project management services.

With 16,056 islands, extreme humidity that ranges between 70-90%, heavy rainfall, and climbing cases of COVID-19, the project poses a challenge for Indonesia in the achievement of its Universal Service Obligation goal. Ceragon's solutions and services will help finish the project on time.

Ceragon's all-outdoor microwave solutions, based on the IP-20 platform, will contribute to cost savings on site construction thanks to their small footprint and minimum power consumption. Its Advance Space Diversity (ASD) solution will optimize the tower load in addition to saving overall logistic costs and speeding up the construction schedule. Ceragon's ASD solution requires fewer total antennas compared to other providers, creating a competitive advantage for both Ceragon and its customers. 

We are very excited to participate in projects that are aligned with our vision to enable equal digital opportunities to all citizens of the world. As governments around the world intensify rural digitization, our all-outdoor high performance, low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) products and our expertise in providing full turnkey solutions position us as a leading vendor to win such projects. We have a strong presence in Indonesia, including long-term experience deploying our solutions in the country. I believe it is our reputed high-value technology, designed to save costs which is critical in such projects, that has differentiated us from our competition.

Doron Arazi, CEO of Ceragon Networks

Semtech Releases New Surge Protection Product to Safeguard Electronics

Businesswire | June 01, 2023

Semtech Corporation a high-performance semiconductor, IoT systems, and Cloud connectivity service provider, announced the latest addition to its Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) product portfolio, the RClamp0822B. The RClamp® platform is a purpose-built, versatile circuit protection platform for safeguarding high speed data interfaces across a broad spectrum of circuit interfaces in industrial, datacenter and telecommunication applications. The 2-line, 8V RClamp0822B offers high-performance electrostatic discharge (ESD) and surge protection in an industry standard three lead SC-75 package. Semtech Protection products safeguard the industry’s leading electronic systems and circuits from potentially harmful electrostatic discharge and surge threats. Semtech’s TVS product suite keeps products and the people they serve safe. With more than 50 years industry experience, customers building and bringing to market devices with Semtech Protection know that their products have been tested to the specifications for the latest silicon transceivers and interfaces regardless of end user application. Presenting a very-low sub 1 picofarad of loading capacitance, the RClamp0822B is ideally suited to safeguard high-speed data lines that are increasingly vulnerable to electrical transient threats. The RClamp0822B also provides a robust surge immunity, while it is packaged in a small but user-friendly SC-75 package. This package affords circuit designers flexibility in their PCB layout designs as this package includes a pair of diodes for two signal lines. “The easiest and most sensible path to ensuring reliable system operation while ensuring signal quality in power quality-challenged environments is prevention. Organizations and their teams must plan and build safeguards at vulnerable points in a system to mitigate damage caused by surges and voltage spikes. It’s vitally important that designs address high performance protection across many different circuit interfaces,” said Tamir Reshef, product marketing vice president for Semtech’s Advanced Protection and Sensing Products Group. “The expense to install these circuit protection solutions is nominal compared to the potentially damaging costs if no safeguards are installed and the unthinkable happens. The RClamp0822B is an extremely flexible device. It gives hardware engineers a single-package high performance protection solution that is well suited for broad range of industrial designs.” Key Features of Semtech Protection’s RClamp0822B Transient protection for high-speed data lines to: IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) ±30kV (contact), ±30kV (air); IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) 40A (5/50ns); IEC 61000-4-5 (lightning) 7A (8/20μs) 8V bi-directional working voltage protection High surge capability: 7A (tp=8/20μs) Protects 2 I/O lines Low capacitance (0.7pF typical) SC-75 package Pb-free and RoHS/WEEE compliant About Semtech’s Circuit Protection Products Semtech provides reliable system-level Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) circuit protection solutions that meet the industry's toughest requirements. Semtech ESD protection diodes feature low clamping voltage, low capacitance and low leakage current to protect your system interconnects from external ESD threats.
