Exalt Communications designs, manufactures and markets next generation wireless backhaul systems for service providers and enterprises worldwide. Exalt products are designed to solve the network bottlenecks associated with the growing demand for IP- based voice, data and video applications and the resulting migration from TDM to IP-based networks, including LTE. With a flexible architecture and technology-agnostic product platform covering multiple market segments, Exalt provides a full range of carrier-class microwave radio systems that meet the demand for a cost-effective and flexible alternative to fiber and leased lines.

Platforms Designed for Your Backhaul Network
No two network infrastructures are the same, applications vary, and budgets range from constrained to substantial. That is why Exalt offers four frequency-independent, configuration-independent platforms, and - while they share the same GUI and broad set of features - you can build on the platform that precisely meets your needs.
