Every time I have had a chip become unavailable they always give me a
last time buy opportunity. So you shift into high gear and design it
out. Surprised Remec would shutter for that cause.
I did have one chip become unavailable when they moved the fab and
broke the mask. So I designed a tiny PCB that had three chips on it
that could drop in place of the other chip. Later I designed out the
all in one chip due to cost savings when it once again became available.

But the ODU is not the modem. Also, that sounds like the ODU used on
Apex/Giga/Lynx, not the new StrataPro.
I kind of assumed when Daniel said “modem” he meant a modem chip, SoC
or chipset, not a whole OEM unit.

Yes. The Remec ODU went away and that killed products from a number
of manufacturers. It's why the PTP800 went away and the PTP820 came
to be.

Was the modem manufacturer REMEC? They're the biggest name in that
market AFAIK, but I would also assume that their product
discontinuation times are measured in years and quite planned in
advance.

It wasn't vaporware, it was a finished product. Just as they
put it into production the modem manufacturer stopped making
the modem the radio was designed around.

Looks like that was the 24 GHz “small cell backhaul”
product, which is the one they had at their booth. That
may have actually existed or even shipped to customers, I
don’t know.

Last I heard from Ray Sewell was the following message in
June 2016.
"Hope you are doing well. I wanted to let you know that
we are offering a special introductory offer for the
StrataPRO Si model of $3600 with free 1 Gbps FDX software
key. Shipping in 2 weeks. "

If you’re talking the 6/11/18/23 GHz StrataPro, I think
that may have been vaporware/brochureware. Did anyone
ever see an actual working piece of hardware? I think the
plan may have been to base it on the same Broadcom chipset
we are now seeing in radios from vendors like Aviat. I
remember talking to John at a WISPAmerica show maybe 2015
about that product and not getting any specifics about
availability dates.

Who are the principals now? Are they prior employees?
If I remember right John was over sales. Also If I
recollect some employees went to work for CTI, and there
was a squirmish over that with prior mgmt.
The StrataPro line that was released right before they
closed up shop I don't see it mentioned anywhere, just the
Apex and Orion line. Was this just a proprietary
information buy on the product.or did they just assume the
bussiness operations?

I guess it’s good to see Ray back, how many times has he
been laid off and rehired now by Trango? I wonder where he
goes in the interim? You’d think a more stable microwave
company would hire him.
Any guess if “Z” is still in the picture? If they sold
off the assets, probably not?

Jim has too much Trango deployed in his network to let

New products though... not sure what their R&D
capabilities are now.

Hello Adam,
Ray Sewell here. I wanted to let you know
that Trango Systems sold off its assets to
a new company. The new company is Trango
Networks, LLC. Trango Networks will
continue manufacturing the Orion/Lynx
series of licensed microwave radios and
providing support for most of the other
products. We are also actively developing
new products.
We are going to manufacture the Orion
series. We’ll start with the Apex Orion
which is our all outdoor system that runs
on -48 Vdc via POE or Direct DC power. It
supports 1 copper and 1 fiber Ethernet
port. It is also capable of XPIC (Cross
Polarization Interference Cancellation), 8
MB programmable packet buffer, Multilayer
header compression to increase capacity,
ultra-low latency & jitter in all ACM
modes, Very high power and 500 Mbps FDX
throughput on a 56 MHz channel. Up to 761
Mbps FDX Layer 2 using Header
Compression. The split design Giga Orion
will be shipping by May.
Some of the qualities that make us stand
out from the competition.
1) High Quality US designed and
manufactured products
2) Factory Direct - no middleman.
3) Ultra-Fast lead times for products.
Much is in stock or less than 2-week lead
time for common bands/antenna sizes.
4) Pre-sales support- Free Path analysis,
frequency availability analysis.
5) One stop shop for accessories,
licensing, coordination.
6) Link Configuration based on customer
inputs at ship time with box labeling
7) Online support ticketing, live person

tough problems.
8) Fast RMA turn times (< 2weeks).
9) Free software upgrades and technical
