The two equipment vendors will integrate Carrier Access’ FLEXengine compression technology with Tellabs’ 5500 digital crossconnect to create a solution that increases bandwidth efficiency by compressing GSM/EDGE Abis and UMTS I traffic between cell sites and switching offices.
The two vendors hope the combination helps wireless carriers efficiently add 2.5G and 3G wireless data to their networks.
Separately, Carrier Access received a notice from the NASDAQ exchange on Friday notifying the company that it has failed to file its second-quarter financial report on time. The company is working “diligently” to complete its first- and second-quarter reports by the Sept. 2 deadline required for continued listing of its stock on the NASDAQ, Carrier Access said in a statement issued Friday, but offered no assurance that it will meet the deadline.
