Ultranet2go, a division of ZOMA Telecom of Mexico, commercially launched service in Veracruz and Aguascalientes, Mexico, using pre-mobile WiMAX 802.16e wireless broadband solutions from Navini Networks, Inc. Ultranet2go already offers service in Puebla using Navini's Ripwave MX solution.

"We are successfully bringing true personal broadband wireless access to Mexico," said Patricio Zorrilla, chief executive officer of Ultranet2go. "Our customers in Puebla have portable high speed wireless Internet access and with over 50% growth, we are excited about expanding across Mexico. In addition, we can now provide true roaming between the cities of Puebla, Veracruz and Aguascalientes."

This constitutes approx 3,200,000 POPs spread between Puebla with 1,700,000 and Veracruz with 800,000 and Aguascalientes with 700,000.

"With Veracruz being a major commercial hub and tourist beach resort, having service that extends offshore is a valuable feature," Added Zorrilla.

Navini's wide-area wireless broadband solution, powered by smart beamforming, is called Smart WiMAX. This unique technology provides a very powerful and wide range of coverage and with easy cellphone-like activation, subscribers can quickly get up and running -- anytime, anywhere in the coverage area.

"Today, consumers in Mexico can enjoy the freedom that only portable wireless broadband can provide -- high speed internet access anytime, anywhere within the service area," said Roger Dorf, president and chief executive officer, Navini Networks. "Smart WiMAX positions Ultranet2go to take advantage of next generation mobile broadband wireless access, 802.16e-based WiMAX."

"Navini Networks provided us with a seamless upgrade path to mobile WiMAX that allows us to continue to expand and increase our subscriber base now," added Zorrilla. "With portable service, competitive pricing and plug-n-play installation, customers (and tourists) are able to use their broadband at work, at home, on the beach or in the park ... wherever they want."

Future deployments are planned for Tampico, Matamoros, Xalapa, Coatzacoalcos, Cuernavaca, Chilpancingo and Iguala.
