T-Venture, the venture capital arm of Deutsche Telekom AG, made a $2 million investment in BelAir Networks, a supplier of cellular LAN infrastructure.
The BelAir Networks cellular LAN solution combines WLAN and cellular technologies. It integrates wireless access and a patented, multiple point-to-point mesh wireless backhaul in a single system to provide more coverage and capacity for data, video and voice services than current wireless networking options. The company has raised $24 million to date.
BelAir is based in Kanata, Ontario, with offices in Reston, Virginia and Carlsbad, California. http://www.belairnetworks.com
