context_section_description: Alvarion Technologies provides Wi-Fi solutions for Smart Cities, mobile carriers, enterprises, smart hospitality, campuses and High-Density Events. It was one of the first companies to produce IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN equipment and made some contributions to the development of the IEEE 802.11 standard. In collaboration with the Swedish Space Corporation and using its own BreezeNET DS.11 product, it also claims to hold a World record of longest Wireless LAN link ever achieved – 310 kilometers (190 mi) from ground to a weather balloon (although it had been heavily amplified, used a huge dish antenna, and had an automatic tracking system). This record is not found in The Guinness Book of Records, however.
  Alvarion is also active in the development of the IEEE 802.16x WiMAX standards and offers mobile WiMAX systems.
  Following the acquisition of Wavion Wireless in 2011 Alvarion has been focused in delivering Wi-Fi based platforms supporting the latest IEEE 802.11ac standard. The first Wi-Fi platform was WBS supporting IEEE 802.11g with the first beamforming technology. Alvarion developed a noise mitigation algorithm provision continues service in a noisy environment.
  Following was the WBSn platform compliant with the IEEE 802.11n standard and holding the International Protection Marking of IP68, making it suitable for extreme outdoor conditions.
  In 2016 Alvarion launched the WBSac series of products of indoor and outdoor access points compliant with IEEE 802.11ac and backwards-compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n.
