Englewood, Colorado and Milpitas, California — February 29, 2024 — Digicomm International, a leading telecommunications distributor, and Tarana, the creator of next-generation fixed wireless access (ngFWA), today announced their partnership to equip internet service providers (ISPs) with Tarana’s ngFWA platform, Gigabit 1 (G1).
Since its commercial launch in late 2021, Tarana G1 has been embraced by well over 200 operators in 21 countries. With unparalleled interference cancellation and the ability to connect in non-line-of-sight (NLoS) environments, G1 enables ISPs to cover previously hard-to-reach locations with high-speed broadband. In unserved and underserved areas, where fiber deployment is too inefficient or expensive to deploy, operators can swiftly and cost-effectively deliver reliable internet that meets the increasing bandwidth requirements of residential and business end-users.
Digicomm has stocked, distributed, and manufactured telecom equipment for over 30 years. The company serves international customers with a historic focus on cable operators and regional telecom companies in the Americas. Eager to help their customers bridge the digital divide in rural areas and across tribal lands, Digicomm’s addition of Tarana Wireless to its product lineup was a natural fit.
“Together with Tarana Wireless, we aim to provide a full suite of ngFWA solutions to our valued customer base,” said Rob Donziger, President and CEO of Digicomm International. “By supplying Tarana’s cutting-edge fixed wireless access products, we’re enabling service providers in every market to conquer once-insurmountable network challenges to truly close the digital divide.”
George Hellmuth, Head of North American Sales at Tarana, shared, “We’re excited to add Digicomm’s vast inventory and logistics capabilities to our network of channel partners. We share a mission to provide operators with the best possible solution to accomplish their goals, and look forward to the progress this partnership will make in connecting underserved communities.”
