BridgeWave (News - Alert) Communications, company offering 4G millimeter wave backhaul solutions, has announced three new considerations for healthcare IT managers that can support the growing network needs of their healthcare facilities.

In the current market scenario, IT managers are working with the challenges of investing in a reliable, scalable and cost-efficient infrastructure that helps providers improve patient care and productivity and to meet this need, BridgeWave has come up with its product suite of high capacity wireless gigabit Ethernet solutions that works out best with hospitals and medical facilities to support their evolving networks.

The first consideration by the company is that the WAN infrastructure works out best for healthcare provides that can handle traffic demands for servers located in disparate locations. Millimeter wave wireless links provide cost-effective gigabit point-to-point connectivity ideal for medical campus environments, says the company officials.

The second consideration is that to ease network congestion and provide optimal performance, medical facilities go for fiber or point-to-point gigabit wireless links that ensure the network experience remains the same for patients and medical personnel outside the main building.

The third consideration offered by BridgeWave is the affordable option -- gigabit Ethernet wireless links, that promise to offer the capacity, HIPAA-compliant security, ‘five-nines’ availability, and can be deployed in days. This solves the security patient privacy issue and securing healthcare data for all healthcare IT organizations.

“As the healthcare industry adapts to evolving medical technologies, IT managers are faced with securing patient data and maintaining five-nines availability for mission-critical healthcare data exchanges,” said Amir Makleff (News - Alert), CEO at BridgeWave.

Makleff said that their company’s links are designed to address these challenges, and they are proud to continue providing high-capacity, secure wireless solutions to support the rapidly changing needs of their healthcare customers.

In other news, BridgeWave Communications recently announced that Spiral Communications, an ISP operating in Southwest Iowa, has deployed BridgeWave's FlexPort uWave to support IP traffic across Iowa and Nebraska. The full rate gigabit microwave link provides reliable connectivity to Spiral's customer base at a significant cost savings over traditional fiber.
