Demonstration illustrates Motorola's capability to deploy mobile WiMAX
technology for operators in the region
SINGAPORE, April 8, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola (NYSE: MOT)
today unveiled the mobile WiMAX experience during an exclusive bus tour at
the WiMAX Forum Congress Asia 2008 in Singapore. This is Motorola's first
mobile WiMAX demonstration with live handoffs between access points to the
public in Asia Pacific. The demonstration marks another milestone as
Motorola accelerates the delivery of personal media experience to users in
the region.
The demonstration is conducted through a mobile WiMAX network set up at
Motorola's facility in Ang Mo Kio, Singapore. Attendees joining the bus
tour are able to experience various mobile applications including video
conferencing, web browsing and mobile streaming while moving past access
point sites along the bus route. Additionally, as the WiMAX connection is
extended through an air router, guests will also be able to experience
mobile broadband through their own WiFi enabled devices.
"Mobile WiMAX is an essential part of Motorola's portfolio to deliver
broadband everywhere enabling consumers to access high speed Internet at
home and on-the-go," said Mike Ropicky, senior director of marketing and
product operations, Home & Networks Mobility, Motorola Asia Pacific.
"Today's demonstration reinforces Motorola's capability in providing and
deploying mobile WiMAX technology that is ready for commercial deployment
in the Asia Pacific region."
The network infrastructure is powered by Motorola's WAP 400 access
points with backhaul provided by Motorola's wireless IP backhaul equipment
at the company's facility. During the tour, the signal was seamlessly
transmitted and handed off between access point sites, providing an
uninterrupted broadband experience to users. Laptops enabled with
Motorola's WiMAX PC cards for high speed video were also demonstrated on
the bus.
Mobile WiMAX solutions will enable operators in Asia Pacific to provide
cost-effective, fast and easy-to-deploy broadband services to fixed,
portable and mobile users. Motorola has won numerous commercial contracts
and conducted trials across Asia Pacific including the first trial in
Thailand with United Information Highway.
The demonstration builds on Motorola's leadership in developing
wireless broadband technology. Motorola now has 19 contracts for commercial
WiMAX networks in 18 countries around the world. For more information about
