Germany’s Bavarian region to get WiMAX
Sunday, July 20th, 2008 – 2:56 pmProxim Wireless announced that telecommunications provider Televersa Online of Bavaria, Germany, has chosen the company’s Tsunami MP.16 WiMAX products to build its fixed WiMAX network. Televersa recently acquired a 3.5 GHz broadband wireless access license for the network. Televersa Online has already deployed proprietary Tsunami MP.11 multipoint base stations and subscriber units for its wireless “viaAIR” service.
Televersa Online was the first regional telephone company in South East Bavaria and offers broadband services over DSL, unlicensed broadband wireless, and now WiMAX. The region has a population of 2.5 million people and covers approximately 20,000 square kilometers (12,400 square miles) from Munich Airport to the Czech and Austrian borders. While Bavaria is Germany’s largest geographical state, the area served by Televersa Online is mostly rural.
