Using local reseller Nextlan Pty, Intracom has supplied the government of the Southern African country with an upgrade from its OmniBAS microwave product group featuring compact high-performance outdoor and indoor units delivering reliable 4096-QAM two-way transmission. 

The backhauled private TETRA network will be used alongside improved broadband services across all telecommunication traffic in the country. 

John Tenidis, marketing director of Intracom's wireless solutions portfolio, stated: “This new project confirms that Intracom Telecom’s wireless portfolio is stronger than ever. Our OmniBAS microwave product family has been chosen repeatedly for mission critical applications and sensitive communications. 

“Local support and services by Nextlan are crucial to our success in the Botswanan market and we are committed to continue delivering the best technology to our growing list of satisfied customers.”

Botswana has one of the fast growing economies in the world boosted by significant diamond mining supplies.
