A consortium of Telecom industry vendors, IT companies, small and medium-sized enterprises and academic organisations in Europe has been awarded €8 million research funding to develop the infrastructure required to support the future 5G network and communication systems.

Visit L-3 Electron Devices at EuMW, September 6-11, 2015, Palais des Congres, Paris, France Booth 225.

 Intel, a world leader in computing innovation, and Wipro Limited, a leading global information technology, consulting, and business process services company, announced that they are joining the International M2M Council (IMC), a global trade association for the growing industry known as the Internet of Things (or machine-to-machine communications). IMC, which has quickly gained over 10,000 members, comprised almost entirely of OEMs, enterprise users, and applications developers, aims to boost understanding and sales in IoT. 

MicroWave Technology, Inc., a division of IXYS Corp., announced that it released two pre-amplifiers for MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) coil applications. 

 Crystek Corp. has launched the CCPD-575, a new ultra-low phase noise LVPECL oscillator providing a -162 dBc/Hz noise floor.  Compact and powerful, the CCPD-575 has an industry leading phase noise for an LVPECL oscillator – at least 15 dB lower phase noise than most LVPECL oscillators on the market today. Close-in phase noise is also excellent @ -90 dBc/Hz for the 100 MHz variant. This overall ultra-low phase noise translates to a typical phase jitter of 85 fS RMS (12 kHz to 20 MHz). 

Pulse Electronics Corp. announces the release of a family of six new ultra-low profile SMT shielded inductors for compact point-of-load and mobile devices. With mounted height profiles of 1.0 to 3.2 mm, these inductors are ideal for today's mobile computing, home automation, portable POS and other small handheld devices.

Southwest Microwave’s SuperMini Board-to-Board DC to 67 GHz RF/millimeter wave blind-mate connectors optimize interconnect performance for board-to-board stacking applications.

Teledyne Relays will be showcasing their new USB/Ethernet Controlled Miniature Switch Modules at EuMW Booth 260 in Paris, France, September 6-11, 2015.

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced that it has completed the acquisition of Anite. Keysight paid approximately $600 million in cash for Anite – a leading supplier of software solutions for wireless research and development – in a deal that supports Keysight's strategy to grow in wireless and expand its software offerings.

High Speed Interconnects' flexible, cable assemblies are ready for a variety of RF/microwave applications. At the 2015 European Microwave show in Paris, France, September 6-11, HSI will be providing a live demonstration of their flexible, coaxial cable performance delivering phase stability of < 1.5° and insertion loss of < 0.9 dB per foot @ 40 GHz while wrapped around a 2" mandrel.
