Horizon Compact+ and Avenue Link 60 GHz frequency now commercially available

DragonWave Inc., a leading global supplier of packet microwave radio systems for mobile and access networks, announced the commercial availability of its 60 GHz technology in the Horizon® Compact+ and Avenue Link product lines.
