FreeWave Technologies, Market Leader in Oil and Gas, Will Exhibit Latest Wireless Data Radios at ENTELEC 2011

BOULDER, Colo., May 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- FreeWave Technologies, (http://www.freewave.com), manufacturer of the most reliable, high-performance spread spectrum and licensed radios for critical data transmission, will showcase its portfolio of wireless data radio solutions and provide hands-on demos of its latest technology for customers in the oil and gas market May 24-26 in Houston, Texas at the annual ENTELEC conference. FreeWave will display its new licensed LRS Series and offer additional demos for visitors at its booth (#219). Additionally, FreeWave and its premier partners will host a cocktail reception for its customers at the George R. Brown Convention Center in George Bush Grand Ballroom A.

"ENTELEC is a great opportunity to showcase our latest innovations for the oil and gas industry," said Ashish Sharma, chief marketing officer at FreeWave Technologies. "As the leading provider of wireless data radios for oil and gas with more than 50 percent of all new installations and 250,000 radios deployed, we offer many options for a variety of applications in the industry and will have them available for booth visitors at the show."

At the event, FreeWave will highlight its new licensed LRS Series. FreeWave's family of licensed radio offerings includes the narrow band licensed frequencies of 400 MHz, 455 MHz, 700 MHz and 1.4 GHz. The new LRS radios are designed to meet the communication standards in international markets and support the respective licensed spectrum frequencies.

"At FreeWave, our customers are our top priority and we designed a licensed series for communication in international markets based on demand," said Sharma. "By exhibiting at ENTELEC, both existing clients and prospects will have a hands-on look at our new radios so they can better understand what makes FreeWave the most reliable wireless data radios with the lowest power consumption in the industry."

Already European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) certified for use in more than 27 European countries, plus Canada, Mexico and New Zealand, the LRS Series radios offer superior RF link budgets through higher RF receive sensitivity, rather than increased RF output power. The LRS Series radios provide optimum use of the available bandwidth in narrow-band UHF channels without the protocol overhead of native-IP radios.

Event attendees can take a closer at this new series of radios and several other radios by visiting FreeWave's booth (#219). Also, the cocktail reception, hosted FreeWave and its premier partners will take place on Wednesday, May 25 from 5:30 p.m. – 7 p.m. at the George R. Brown Convention Center for customers attending the conference.

"With so many valued customers attending ENTELEC, we felt a cocktail reception would be a great chance to show our appreciation to their continued loyalty," said Sharma. "We strive to build meaningful relationships, and feel that we can leverage this event not only to showcase our technology, but continue to connect with our customers to ensure we are doing the best job possible for them."
