Emtel Chooses Alvarion's Solution for WiMAX Network Deployment in Mauritius

Alvarion’s BreezeMAX to Provide Extended Coverage to Major Cities

Tel Aviv, Israel, August 28, 2007 — Alvarion Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALVR), the world’s leading provider of WiMAX and wireless broadband solutions, today announced that Emtel, a leading mobile operator, has chosen its BreezeMAX^TM solution for a WiMAX network deployment in Mauritius. The new network is planned to provide extended data services to both corporate and residential users starting in the major cities and eventually the entire island.

“We are proud to bring yet another technology – WiMAX, as a first to the island of Mauritius using Alvarion’s solution,” said Shyam Roy, CEO of Emtel. “Alvarion has extensive WiMAX expertise and experience in deploying networks in any location around the world. We believe that Alvarion is the right vendor for enabling our customers to receive high quality services quickly and easily.”

Alvarion’s award-winning BreezeMAX 3.5 GHz will enable Emtel to offer its subscribers greater coverage and increased capacity. As part of this deployment of primary broadband services, Emtel also plans to use Alvarion’s BreezeMAX PRO, and BreezeMAX Si. Eliminating professional installation, Si enables carriers to broaden their distribution channels to best fit their business models, and when combined with outdoor CPEs, optimizes their network planning by trading-off coverage, capacity and installation costs.

“We are pleased that Emtel selected us for their first WiMAX network deployment in Mauritius,” said Tzvika Friedman, CEO and President of Alvarion. “Emtel joins the many other operators around the world deploying the most popular WiMAX system, offering business and residential users the advantages of high-speed, high quality wireless broadband services.”
