RADWIN Chosen by Kenya Wildlife Service to Connect Kenya's National Parks


TEL AVIV, September 17 /PRNewswire/ --

- RADWIN's MPTP Systems Transmit VoIP, Data, E-Ticketing & Video 
Surveillance Information with High-Capacity and Long Range

RADWIN (http://www.radwin.com), a leading provider of wireless broadband
solutions, announced that Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) has deployed its
systems in eight national parks. KWS is in charge of Kenya's national parks,
and has deployed RADWIN's Multiple point-to-point (MPtP) systems to connect
its headquarters in Nairobi to a number of parks. UUNET Kenya and Adwest were
in charge of project deployment.

Dr. Julius Kipng'etich, Kenya Wildlife Services' Director, stated: "We
needed a cost-effective, high-capacity solution to link the dispersed
national parks to our HQs, and RADWIN's MPtP systems were the perfect answer
to our needs. RADWIN's links transfer E-Ticketing information, Safari Card
data, Internet and VoIP from the parks to our main office. We also use the
systems for transmitting video from the closed circuit televisions (CCTV)
that are deployed in the parks' entryways to our offices, enabling us to
monitor activities by remote."

Mr. Paul Makobi, General Manager at Adwest, stated: "The quality of
RADWIN's PtP and MPtP solutions give us the confidence and assurance of
delivering multiple applications over an unlicensed link. This will enable
KWS to serve the tourism sector better, and we are proud to be part of the
Tourism Sector."

Joseph Oyieke, UUNET's RF Engineer, stated: "RADWIN's MPtP links are
highly reliable, robust and extremely easy to deploy. KWS can run multiple
applications on these systems because they provide high-quality dedicated
bandwidth to each site from one hub site location."

Hanoch Maskalchi, RADWIN's Director of Sales for Africa, said: "Through
our partnership with UUNET and Adwest we were able to meet KWS' needs for a
reliable, cost-effective network. This is an exciting project and our MPtP
systems meet the requirements of customers who need to interconnect multiple
sites with high-speed broadband."
