In the past year, WiMAX
technology has gained newfound interest in the
United States due to the release by the FCC of
quasi-licensed high-power fixed wireless
spectrum in the 3.65 GHz band.
The WiMAX World 2008 Conference
and Expo is the world's largest wireless and
mobile broadband event focusing solely on WiMAX.
Over 8,500 attendees and 180+ exhibitors
participated in 2007. WiMAX World, focused on
Sprint, ClearWire and the 802.16e standard, does
not cater to the small-to-medium operator's
interests in 802.16d and the 3.65 GHz band.
WiNOG is producing a targeted
2-day WiMAX World "pre-show" seminar that will
focus on the specific issues that fixed wireless
operators looking to deploy 802.16d technology
in the 3.65 GHz band face. Attendees of WiNOG
will get focused discussions pertaining to their
specific needs coupled with the ability to
browse the WiMAX Industry's largest exhibit
hall. |
