BelAir (Kanata, Ontario) plans to outline other members of its Complementary Solutions Partner Program over the next few weeks.

Lucent Worldwide Services (LWS) will market the BelAir100 and BelAir200 switch routers through its global sales channels. The deal gives Lucent a stronger presence in the Wi-Fi market, and LWS will also enhance BelAir's offer by providing a full suite of services including deployment, maintenance, professional and managed services.

"We're pleased to be working with Lucent Worldwide Services, one of the industry's leading network services organization, to bring the BelAir product family to a wider market," said Bernard Herscovich, President and CEO, BelAir Networks. "This relationship enables BelAir to address large scale opportunities more effectively and we look forward to working with Lucent to integrate our products into Lucent's solutions."

The BelAir200 is a four-radio, wireless switch router is based on access radio modules that use the 2.4 GHz band to support Wi-Fi client access. Separate 5 GHz backhaul radio modules create the point-to-point links that form the wireless backhaul mesh that interconnects all of the BelAir nodes.

The BelAir100 router uses the same radio modules as the BelAir200. It can be used to terminate a BelAir mesh, as a mesh edge node, or to provide wireless broadband access to single buildings.
