Cambium Networks (News - Alert) has already made a name for itself as one of the top global providers of broadband network solutions. Now the company has announced it has set a new world record for the longest network link that has been recorded to date. The company was able to set out a link test that spanned from Pike’s Peak, Colorado to Cheyenne, Wyoming. That length was 153-land miles that even managed to go across the metropolitan Denver area of the state.


Cambium was able to send out high definition streaming video signals using AXIS cameras, as well as VoIP services across the state lines. "At Cambium we have a culture of challenging ourselves. We decided to set up the longest point to point link ever established in the world, set it up quickly, and added a noisy metro center right in its path. We did it flawlessly showcasing high definition video and VoIP," said Atul Bhatnagar (News - Alert), president and CEO, Cambium Networks in a recent statement announcing the record setting feat.

While this particular move appears to be more of a “see what we can do?” sort of achievement it does have some bearing in today’s business world. Companies that don’t have access to broadband networks in this day and age are companies that aren’t going to find much success in their business days. Cambium has long established itself as a firm that can certainly deliver high speed broadband Internet services that are also high quality. The company has also forged a great deal of business success by coming up with new and innovative ways to deliver its solutions and services.

This time, the company used its PTP 650 and PTP 700 products in order to demonstrate the signal strength and quality of both those offerings. Even more impressive is that this particular record setting test link was done in a part of the country where cellular phone service is known to be almost non-existent. The company says it was able to set up and deploy the network link in less than an hour.
