E-Band Communications, which supplies 80 GHz wireless backhaul solutions, announced that it has secured funding to complete development of its next-generation "small cell" wireless backhaul system. Financial terms were not announced.

"Compact size, affordability and bandwidth delivery are the ingredients that network service providers and mobile carriers are looking for," said E-Band CEO Sam Smookler. "E-Band's track record of delivering over 5,000 millimeter-wave 80 GHz wireless terminals with outstanding proven network reliability positions us well for addressing the burgeoning 4G/LTE market along with its small cells."http://www.e-band.com
