End-to-end Demo Based on ComMAX CM1125 Processor and WiNetworks WiMAX Base
Station to be Shown at 2 Major WiMAX Exhibitions

    HERZLIYA PITUACH, Israel, May 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Comsys Communication &
Signal Processing Ltd, fabless semiconductor vendor specializing in multimode
communication processors for mobile devices, and WiNetworks Ltd, leader in
the development of WiMAX 802.16e Wave 2 (MIMO) technologies, have announced
today that following completion of IOT between Comsys Mobile's ComMAX CM1125
multimode mobile WiMAX/GSM-EDGE communication processor and WiNetworks
Compact and Pico WiMAX base station, the companies will be cooperating on
demos at WiMAX Taipei and WiMAX Forum Global Congress Amsterdam opening June
2.
    The demo will take place at Comsys Mobile's booth at both exhibitions,
using a CM1125-enabled multimode dongle-phone manufactured by ECS Elitegroup.
Visitors will be able to gain first-hand experience of this device by
conducting voice conversations over a cellular network and websurfing over
the WiMAX network provided by WiNetworks' WiN7200-2 Pico BST. The
dongle-phone is commercially available for service providers requiring
multimode devices capable of supporting and providing seamless handover
between WiMAX and legacy GSM technologies - a necessity at least for the
initial stages of WiMAX deployment.
    "It is important for us to conduct IOT with major stakeholders within the
WiMAX industry." stated Mr. Yoram Shkedi, VP Sales & Marketing at WiNetworks
Ltd. "We consider it most worthwhile to have participated in IOT with Comsys
Mobile as we see how their ComMAX CM1125 communication processor is steadily
becoming an industry winner. In addition we are proud to provide WiMAX
functionality for a demo showing the capabilities of the only handset
available today supporting WiMAX/GSM."
    "We are happy to have accomplished IOT with WiNetworks. They are an
important company in the WiMAX ecosystem and their WiN7200-2 Pico BST fills a
significant niche in the industry," said Mr. Ehud Reshef, Director for WiMAX
Product Marketing at Comsys Mobile." He continued: "WiNetworks has the
perfect WiMAX baseband solution for current installations being reliable,
compact and easy to install and operate."
    Comsys Communication and Signal Processing Ltd is a fabless semiconductor
vendor specializing in integrated digital baseband solutions for mobile
handsets.
    The ComMAX(TM) line provides manufacturers with comprehensive multimode
baseband solutions with architecture spanning 2G to 4G standards such as
