If you've been reading my blog (which I apologize hasn't been updated lately...I know, I must have been missed) then you know I'm hot on the pursuit for WiMAX. More importantly, I've been mapping WiMAX and its whereabouts and have often been disappointed that WiMAX hasn't shown its pretty little face right here in the good ol' U.S. of A.
Well, I have news for you!
TMC announced a plan to build the next generation broadband wireless demonstration network....right here in our Norwalk office!
This is good news for TMC- this is the first pre-WiMAX standards deployment to date.
Using FastSwitching/OFDMA-based equipment, full coverage will be provided for the Norwalk vicinity. According to the release, the network will provide key infrastructure for the new Web editorial team and remote workers alike, and will enhance communications capabilities for business operations, and, who knew... e-government.
This establishment signifies the growing realization and demand for wireless broadband support in metropolitan areas as well as rural communities. We are honored to provide the city of Norwalk with this ground-breaking network!
