MDS America Technology

MDS America is leading the way in terrestrial broadband wireless technology. Backed by 16 years of design and testing and 6 years of operational experience, MDS America technologies are the next step in the evolution of wireless broadband.

At the core of this innovative technology is a high-speed Multi-channel Video Distribution and Data Service (MVDDS) system created by MDSA and called MDSA Technology. This system is based in principle on established radio techniques, and consists of discrete directional or omnidirectional low power transmitters positioned on towers, buildings, or other elevated objects. The coverage of the signal extends from the transmitter to the curve of the earth. The unique design of the transmitters and antennas facilitates an exceptionally pure radio frequency signal that allows transmission of video and data at very high speeds over long distances. A signal may be received up to 200 kilometers from the transmitter with a very small passive antenna. MDSA Technology may also cover a much wider area such a city or an entire country, by using a cellular structure.
