Cambridge, UK, 21st October 2014 - CCS (Cambridge Communication Systems Limited), creator of the world’s first self-organising small cell microwave backhaul system for mobile networks, today announces that China Mobile has expanded its deployment of CCS’ technology with a new installation in its Fujian Mobile branch. In February this year, China Mobile – the world’s largest mobile operator – began implementing CCS’ backhaul system to deliver enhanced coverage and capacity in a busy urban environment of Beijing, in one of its first outdoor deployments of 4G LTE-TDD small cells. Now the operator is rolling out the CCS solution in the busiest commercial area of Longyan, to backhaul the latest LTE-TDD small cells from ZTE. A CCS unit is installed at an existing macrocell site, which feeds down to the street to provide a high availability, low latency and high capacity Ethernet backhaul service in excess of 200Mbps to each small cell site. The environment is extremely challenging for both RF and GPS – narrow streets with densely packed, tall, reflective buildings on both sides and a poor view of the sky. The CCS system’s self-organising capability enables it to pick up the optimal signal, thereby overcoming RF issues. Each CCS node is also uniquely capable of providing GPS-derived synchronisation to the small cell when the small cell’s own GPS fails. The GPS capabilities of CCS’ backhaul system are much more robust than those of a small cell, enabling operation in difficult environments where small cells may not function. The Fujian network was deployed by local contractors in just one day after minimal training, without the need for any on-site configuration or manual alignment. The advanced self-organising nature of the CCS backhaul nodes has created a network that can self-configure into an optimal topology – without any RF or link planning – and provide automatic redundancy via self-healing features. Commenting on today’s announcement, CCS CEO Steve Greaves said: “This expansion of our commercial partnership with China Mobile really underlines how successful our solution is proving to be in delivering robust backhaul in difficult urban settings.†He added: “The unique, built-in intelligence of our system means that these networks can be deployed quickly, flexibly and reliably in even the most challenging RF and GPS environments.†-ends- About CCS Ltd: Cambridge, UK-based CCS (Cambridge Communication Systems Ltd) is the pioneer of the world’s first self-organising small cell microwave backhaul system for mobile networks.

Siegen, Germany, 8th July 2014 – PoINT Software & Systems GmbH has released version 5.0 of PoINT Storage Manager. This new release includes various novelties by which companies can face the challenges of data growth, administration of inactive data and long-term storage efficiently. From now on also authorized users are able to archive data independently. Furthermore PoINT Software & Systems had extended the list of supported storage systems considerably. Version 5.0 supports now also the operating system Windows Server 2012 R2 and contains an optimized integration of Blu-ray Disc libraries by PoINT Jukebox Manager. For facing the growth of unstructured data storage concepts are necessary to keep investments for storage extensions and for additional back-up licenses respectively capacities at a minimum. Normally up to 80% of data is unstructured, whereof nearly 70% do not need to be accessible directly. Inactive data stresses increasingly the primary storage capacity and the back-up of primary storage cannot be carried out without problems due to the huge data volumes. A file-tiering- and archiving software is a solution for companies to purge inactive data from expensive primary storage to cost-efficient secondary storage for archival, but retain transparent data access. PoINT Storage Manager applies the file tiering approach consequently and thus creates more free capacity on the primary storage as well as savings in additional back-up costs. PoINT Software & Systems GmbH has integrated additional functions addressing the main market requirements of the storage sector. The policy-based file archiving function had been extended by a user driven archiving functionality by which authorized users can purge and archive files independently. For this purpose PoINT Storage Manager 5.0 offers a web client which is available network-wide and can be used without a decided software installation. Furthermore PoINT Software & Systems has extended the list of supported storage systems considerably. For the integration of object store systems, which are becoming more and more important in the market, now also connectors for Caringo CAStor and HDS HCP (Hitachi Content Platform) are available. Additionally Blu-ray Disc libraries can be integrated for long-term storage and archiving by the established PoINT Jukebox Manager resulting in an advanced functionality. Also the operating system Windows Server 2012 R2 is supported by the new version. For ensuring the server failover the Microsoft Cluster Manager is implied.

Berlin, Cologne, Germany , 4th July 2014 – The PDF Association has successfully brought to life a new user-focused event in the form of the “PDF Days Europe 2014â€. In mid-June, 160 participants came to Cologne to seize the opportunity to learn everything there is to know about the different PDF standards, their advantages and their uses. The first day focused on sharing knowledge, allowing visitors to assemble their own personal information package out of three parallel series of developer-neutral presentations. The second day, the “practical dayâ€, was all about the practical and successful implementation of PDF projects using specific solutions. Participants especially praised the practically-minded selection of subjects, the structure of the conference with its three parallel series of presentations, and the many opportunities to speak to suppliers and other users. With this overwhelmingly positive feedback in mind, the PDF Association plans to continue the “PDF Days Europe†next year. “The PDF Days Europe 2014 offered visitors the unique opportunity to learn everything they needed to know about the PDF standards and the latest news and developments in the world of PDF technology, and all in just two daysâ€, explained Olaf Drümmer, chairman of the PDF Association board. “In particular, the practically-minded nature of the presentations on the second day, which was very strongly focused on projects and solutions, proved to offer significant added value to participants.†To begin the conference, six proven experts had seven minutes each to introduce one PDF standard, providing a good overview of PDF/A, PDF/E, PDF/UA, PDF/VT, PDF/X and PDF itself. On the first day of the event, presentations on the use of the PDF format on mobile devices were met with particularly significant interest. These included case studies for scanning with smartphones, clearing invoices, legally signing PDF documents and options for optimising PDF display on mobile devices. Presentations on e-invoicing with the now officially approved ZUGFeRD data model were also very popular, as were those on the new technical guidelines for replacement scanning, TR-RESISCAN. Contributing providers began the practical day: each had a closely-measured five minute slot to introduce their product or solution. This brief, fast-paced overview made it easier for participants to decide which questions or solutions they wished to focus on out of the available options. One key issue here was converting scanned and digital documents, and particularly emails, to PDF – and not just to PDF/A for long-term archiving. Both the introduction to and the workshop on universally-accessible PDFs in the form of PDF/UA were very popular with visitors. All in all, the many lively discussions in the presentations showed just how critical the issues presented were to participants. Interested parties who missed the PDF Days Europe 2014 can view video recordings of the presentations at: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfGR40SWnakjyWjfnmFOz-nsmf3_ap_Ec.

Featured in the Best New Product (Mobile) category, the nomination recognises CCS’ development of a “potentially market-leading product that, through engineering and technical excellence, enables the deployment of profitable next-generation mobile services.†CCS’ small cell backhaul system is the only solution that meets all key requirements of mobile network operators. The combination of its unique self-organising capability and multipoint-to-multipoint architecture delivers higher resilience plus considerable savings by reducing manual labour costs during planning, installation and ongoing network expansion. The small outdoor device can be easily deployed in under 15 minutes and only one unit is required per lamppost, which is more acceptable to urban planners. The system offers increased flexibility with dynamic bandwidth management and capacity that’s more easily scaled. There’s no need to re-visit existing sites when new nodes are added because existing nodes automatically re-organise and re-align – unlike conventional microwave systems, which would need continual re-planning and re-alignment as the small cell network grows. CCS’ backhaul system enables cost-effective small cell deployment in a flexible, organic way as additional capacity is required. Having executed a number of trials, CCS announced its first commercial deployment with China Mobile in early 2014. The Leading Lights Awards, this year celebrating its 10th anniversary, recognises the most innovative and inspiring companies working within the communications services sector. The announcement of the finalists for the 16 award categories is the last stage before the winners are revealed at the awards dinner on 17 June, at The Adler Planetarium in Chicago. Speaking of the nomination, Steve Greaves, CEO and co-founder of CCS commented; “We are honoured to be shortlisted for a Leading Lights Award in this category, especially in such a competitive year. It acknowledges all the hard work that’s gone into developing a backhaul solution that essentially makes small cells viable, and will help the mobile industry deal with the capacity challenges that lie ahead.†For the full list of nominees in this category, see here: http://www.lightreading.com/ethernet-ip/ethernet-services/leading-lights-awards-2014-the-finalists/d/d-id/708932?page_number=3 ---- ends --- About CCS Ltd: (www.ccsl.com) Cambridge, UK-based CCS (Cambridge Communication Systems Ltd.) is the pioneer of the world’s first self-organising small cell microwave backhaul system for mobile networks.

Berlin, Germany, 24th March 2014 – Since its beginnings in 1993, PDF technology has become a gigantic ecosystem with thousands of different providers. Originally a proprietary file format, today PDF is a critical part of global IT infrastructure used in almost every sector and industry imaginable. On the 16th and 17th of June 2014, the PDF Association is dedicating another event entirely to the format: PDF Days Europe. The premiere event will be held in Cologne. At this star-studded conference, users and developers will find answers to their questions and ideas for optimal usage of the PDF format. Each different PDF standard will be considered and its potential applications discussed. The agenda for the first day, Educational Day, will include developer- and product-independent presentations on PDF-related themes, such as PDF/A, PDF/UA, PDF/X, PDF/VT, PDF/E and PDF itself. Day two, Solution Day, is dedicated to practical applications for PDF solutions. Cutting-edge questions will be answered, such as “Where is PDF going?†“How can organizations best leverage PDF’s subset standards for archival, accessibility, engineering and print?†“How reliable is PDF?†and “What will PDF 2.0 look like?†“PDF today is an open ISO standard with a wide range of potential applications. This, along with the wide range of PDF standards, can sometimes make it difficult to maintain an overview of the situation. In PDF Days Europe, we are offering a roadmapâ€, said Olaf Drümmer, chairman of the PDF Association, explaining the Association’s concerns. The conference programme includes a wide range of subjects, meaning that IT managers, decision makers, ECM strategists, developers and PDF experts will be sure to get their money’s worth.

Cambridge, UK, 13th March 2014 – CCS (Cambridge Communication Systems Limited), developer of the world’s first self-organising small cell microwave backhaul system for mobile networks, today announces the publication of a new whitepaper exploring the backhaul solutions that can support organic small cell network growth. Written by Senza Fili Consulting, the research offers an in-depth examination of the potential total cost of ownership to mobile network operators – due to the inevitable densification of mobile infrastructure – and a detailed overview of some of the backhaul solutions currently existing. The whitepaper is freely available for download here: A backhaul solution for organic small-cell growth. The whitepaper demonstrates the potential savings available to operators using the model of a small cell network that grows organically over a 5-year period to meet the increased capacity needed for the operators' overall network. It addresses an expansion in backhaul to support an initial deployment of 100 small cells that grows to 5110 small cells in year 5, and the likely costs incurred as the result of continuous network planning and implementation. In the report, the cost savings achieved by deploying a self-organising, multipoint-to-multipoint (MP2MP) backhaul system – 42 per cent lower CAPEX and 34 per cent lower OPEX – are due to reduced manual labour costs associated with planning, installation and topology optimisation of small cell networks. Unlike point-to-point (P2P) systems, which would require repeated re-planning as the small cell network grows, a fully self-organizing MP2MP system such as that from CCS, enables simple organic growth and a rapid response for network operators to expand capacity when and where demand is highest. “Small cells are going to be essential assets for operators needing to increase the capacity density of their mobile networks. However if this growth is to be part of a well-paced evolution, the costs of reshaping and optimising ever-expanding networks will be substantial,†says report author, Monica Paolini, President and Founder of Senza Fili Consulting. “This TCO analysis shows the advantages of self-organized systems in keeping the cost and complexity down in expanding small-cell networks.†CEO of CCS Ltd, Steve Greaves, commented: “We are delighted by the results of this important research conducted by Senza Fili Consulting. The outcome is a great vote of confidence for CCS and vindicates our proposition for a self-organising, self-optimising backhaul network.†---- ends --- About CCS Ltd.

Cambridge, UK, 17th February 2014 – CCS (Cambridge Communication Systems Limited), the developer of the world’s first self-organising small cell microwave backhaul system for mobile networks, today announces that its solution is in live deployment with China Mobile, the world’s largest mobile operator. The small cell network is operational now, delivering enhanced coverage and capacity in a busy urban hotspot environment and marking one of China Mobile’s first outdoor deployments of 4G LTE-TDD small cells. China is the world’s largest mobile market with an estimated 1.2 billion users, and was recently selected by CCS as its manufacturing base, providing the company with key access to what is expected to be the world’s biggest small cell market. According to recently released research by Dell’Oro, the global mobile backhaul equipment market is predicted to be worth $8 billion by 2018 (January 2014). In the landmark implementation, CCS’s CE-marked, self-organising backhaul nodes were deployed by local lighting contractors in only 15 minutes per site, without training or the need to perform complicated frequency planning or alignment, delivering immediate and optimal 4G coverage to China Mobile subscribers. A single compact unit connects to other units to create a multipoint-to-multipoint network that self-organises into the most optimal topology, without the requirement to post-optimise. The locations consist of a single CCS node together with a single or dual small cell, forming a 4G/LTE Macro and small cell HetNet (heterogeneous network). The network demonstrates the advanced self-organisation capabilities of CCS's solution together with its self-healing capabilities in the event of a node or link failure. The network easily provides the high capacity, low latency, carrier-class availability and high QoS required when backhauling next generation LTE small-cells. The network is now carrying live 4G traffic and the flexible architecture dynamically reconfigures and adapts, allowing the network to organically scale to connect further small cells in surrounding areas. With simple, low-cost and fast deployment, the CCS solution significantly reduces the OPEX of the last mile backhaul, with CAPEX also reduced as only one unit is required per location. China Mobile currently has around 763M subscribers and launched its TD-LTE network in December 2013. China Mobile expects to construct its 4G networks in over 340 cities to reach a total of more than 500,000 TD-LTE base stations by the end of 2014. Commenting on today’s announcement, CCS CEO Steve Greaves said: “This is a highly significant deployment for CCS, which demonstrates the unrivalled technical and business benefits that our solution is delivering to the world’s largest mobile network operator.†He added: “Our self-organising, self-healing nodes are able to be very swiftly and flexibly deployed by relatively untrained contractors – without any upfront frequency planning or optimisation – saving both time and money while delivering the high levels of capacity, latency and redundancy demanded by China Mobile. With this flagship implementation and our new manufacturing base in China, CCS is now strategically very well-placed to create a strong leadership position in backhaul as the small cell market growth accelerates.†CCS will be showcasing its solution at the upcoming Mobile World Congress 2014 in Barcelona (24 to 27 February, Fira Gran Via).
