, Tel Aviv Radwin was founded in 1997 by Sharon Sher. During his
military service obligation, he was assigned to a
R&D unit where he worked on projects involving telecommunication systems and wireless communications. After receiving a degree in
mathematics and
physics from
Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and a master's degree in
electronic engineering from
Tel Aviv University, he founded Radwin in 1997 as a
spin-off of
RAD Data Communications. The first products were point-to-point radios. ,
Florida.By 2005, the company had sold its first 10,000 radios, and its products were chosen for one of
Asia's largest
WiFi backhaul projects, with more than one thousand wireless links. Radwin was selected by
Indian Railways for train-to-track connectivity, and in the same year, the company opened an office in
India. After the
2004 tsunami, Radwin donated 1,000 wireless broadband units for the reconstruction of Thailand's communications network. They also went on to provide on-site communication systems for rescue teams. In 2006, the company launched its first
point to multipoint products. By 2007 Radwin had sold more than 50,000 units, in over 70 countries, and in 2008, that reached 100,000 units in more than 100 countries. Radwin was chosen by the
UK Ministry of Defence in 2009 to provide a
front line digital communications backbone to replace the
Cormorant Network in the
War in Afghanistan. Systems were fitted to front-line vehicles, providing reliable broadband communication in
non-line-of-sight conditions. In 2010 Radwin was chosen for wireless
HD video transmission at
NASA launch events taking place at the
Kennedy Space Center,
Florida. In 2013, the company's
FiberinMotion was selected and deployed on the
Moscow Metro, providing in-tunnel train-to-wayside broadband wireless communication, delivering on-board high-speed (90 Mbit/s) internet for passengers, and infrastructure for real-time
CCTV transmission,
passenger information systems and
communications-based train control. The company launched a
beamforming point-to-multipoint system in 2015, Radwin 5000 Jet, designed to deliver high capacity in challenging high-interference environments and use congested spectrum more efficiently than traditional systems. Radwin's wireless mobility solution is selected by
Bangkok for Gold Line (a first completely automated, mass rapid transit (MRT) system in
Bangkok). ==Awards & notable events==
