ITEC, LONDON (Booth #B144), May 22, 2012 – FreeWave Technologies, (http://www.freewave.com), manufacturer of the most reliable, high-performance spread spectrum and licensed radios for critical data transmission, today announced it is exhibiting at ITEC (http://www.itec.co.uk/), a London-based conference focused on defense, simulation, training and education, May 22-24, 2012. At ITEC, FreeWave will display a full portfolio of its wireless data radio offerings that are used for a variety of government and defense applications, such as soldier training and range data systems applications; command and control of unmanned vehicles and robotics; biological and chemical sensing; asset tracking; Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) and Micro UAV; guided parachutes; and, more.
“This is our first time exhibiting at ITEC and FreeWave is excited to bring its government and defense solutions to a new audience,” said Ashish Sharma, chief marketing officer at FreeWave Technologies. “By exhibiting, we have a great opportunity to connect with organizations across the globe that can benefit from our reliable and versatile communication solutions. We especially are excited to demonstrate how our products are ideal for soldier training applications.”
At ITEC, FreeWave will demonstrate how its wireless radios are being used by the U.S. Department of Defense and other government organizations for multiple major training programs and ranges. Currently, FreeWave’s MM2 and F Series radios are deployed during soldier training exercises to transmit performance data for After Action Review (AAR). During training exercises, soldiers wear the radios for GPS positioning and to register speed, hit data and other diagnostics for player units, targets and effects. Upon evaluation of the data, a soldier’s performance can be modified to better prepare for combat situations.
Attendees are encouraged to stop by FreeWave’s ITEC booth (#B144) for an introduction to the company and to learn about its latest government and defense technology offerings. FreeWave also will showcase a diverse collection of its popular ruggedized data radios in its booth including:
- The MM2 Family, which includes the MM2-MU (340 MHz-400 MHz), MM2 (900 MHz) and MM2-M13 (1.3 GHz). These radios feature a tiny footprint and lightweight form factor making them ideal for mission critical applications where space and weight are at a premium.
- GXM (2.4 GHz), a serial radio that offers the same form factor as the MM2 radio.
- 3400 Series (3.4 GHz), Q Series (228-235 MHz) and F Series (225 MHz-400 MHz), which are designed for defense and international use.
- FGR2 (900 MHz) serial radio.
- FGR2-PE (900 MHz) radio with two Ethernet and two serial ports.
- HTplus (900 MHz) high-speed Ethernet radio.

FreeWave radios are used in these industries for a variety of applications, such as command and control of unmanned vehicles and robotics; biological and chemical sensing; asset tracking; Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) and Micro UAV; guided parachutes; soldier training and range data systems applications; and, more.
“FreeWave is dedicated to serving its customers in the government and defense markets,” said Ashish Sharma, chief marketing officer at FreeWave Technologies. “Our customers choose our technologies based on their enduring performance, small footprint and lightweight format – making them ideal for mission critical and life or death applications where proven reliability is a necessity.”
At I/ITSEC, FreeWave will feature its popular radios which are currently used by the Department of Defense and other government organizations for several major training programs and ranges. The MM2, F Series and P Series radios are deployed during soldier training exercises to transmit performance data for after action review (AAR). Soldiers will wear the radios for GPS positioning and to register speed, hit data and other diagnostics for player units, targets and effects. Upon evaluation of the data, a soldier’s performance can be modified to better prepare for combat.
FreeWave’s MM2 radios offer all of the same features of its standard-sized radios but in a much smaller package. It weighs in at 14 grams with a size of 1.4-inches high by 2.0 inches wide. The MM2’s tiny features, long-range ability, reliability and security make it ideal for the government and defense market. The F Series operates in the 225 MHz-400 MHz frequency band and the P Series is available in 1.35 GHz-1.39 GHz. Both are designed to meet the rigorous demands of users worldwide in the most adverse environments.
FreeWave also will demonstrate a diverse collection of its popular ruggedized data radios in its booth at I/ITSEC (#2914). The entire Micro Mini family will be featured, including the MM2-MU (340 MHz-400 MHz), MM2 (900 MHz), GXM (2.4 GHz) and MM2-M13 (1.3 GHz).
