FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DRAGONWAVE ANNOUNCES REVISED REVENUE EXPECTATIONS FOR THIRD QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2013

Ottawa, Canada,  December 6, 2012  - DragonWave Inc. (TSX: DWI; NASDAQ: DRWI) a leading global supplier of packet microwave radio systems for mobile and access networks, announced today revised revenue expectations for its third quarter fiscal year 2013, ended November 30, 2012, of approximately $39 million. Short-term supply challenges experienced in November caused orders expected to ship in November to be rescheduled to December and orders to support shipments to European customers were lower than expected in Q3.  These revised revenue expectations are preliminary, have not been reviewed by DragonWave’s external auditors, and are subject to completion of customary quarterly closing and internal and external review procedures.

Figures are in U.S. dollars and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
