Sydney's Coming WiMax Network Aimed at Businesses
Sydney's Coming WiMax Network Aimed at Businesses
A new WiMax network that will be targeted toward business customers in Sydney, Australia is scheduled to deploy in February with full launch in June. The developer of the network, Access Providers, says the company is responding to a greater demand for wireless Internet access from the business community. As a result, plans call for the new network to be a fixed WiMax network with receivers to be installed at the business premises which will serve as the uplink for a company’s LAN.
Surely those interested in the U.S. will be watching how this network evolves so that if the coming field trials prove successful, the Sydney model will be one to emulate, at least in some situations.
