Ceragon is the first to provide a licensed, Point-to-Point, native IP wireless connectivity solution with TDM capabilities and built-in AES encryption that is FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) compliant.
"This contract with General Dynamics for the U.S. Air Force is an important validation of Ceragons' technology and leadership in secure wireless communication," said Ira Palti, president and CEO, Ceragon Networks Ltd. "Ceragon is ideally positioned to capitalize on the major opportunities presented by the growing defense market"
Ceragon's FibeAir 1500P-AES has been certified as FIPS140-2 compliant by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and meets national security requirements for cryptographic modules. This level of cryptographic protection is necessary to maintain the security, confidentiality and integrity of the information being transmitted across the U.S. Department of Defense's wireless networks.
By combining a FIPS-compliant AES encryption and multiplexing into a single platform, Ceragon's FibeAir 1500P-AES eliminates the need for a multibox solution. This configuration reduces costs and space, while improving reliability and capacity over the Air Forces' previous solution.
