Grease. Now let the celebrations begin! Oh my God. Cogent is there. LightSquared is there. Oldteck, Phoneguy and JWilson have been researching with excellent DD and information (pardon me if I have eliminated other iHubber names).
Excellent news. Even I questioned recently about the existence of MeshGlobal and Wytec. Well as a humble man I will bow my head. No more questions!
"Allwaysright" as your ID says, you are really "Right"
So I spent some time looking over the list of Vendors and Suppliers provided on the MeshGlobal Website and have been trying to speculate as to what each of their roles are in the grand scheme of things. http://www.meshglobal.com/partners.html
360 Networks:http://www.360networks.com - I am not exactly sure how 360 Networks fits into the equation. I see that they have a few dark fiber routes as shown in the link below, but are also a telecom wholesaler West of the Mississippi. :-) http://www.360networks.com/dark-fiber.aspx
LightSquared:http://www.lightsquared.com - I believe the link below says it best. The video is helpful as well. "LightSquared will complement all existing and emerging players in the wireless market by operating on a wholesale basis exclusively, thereby avoiding any conflict of interest. This allows LightSquared to focus on developing individual, tailored, and cost-effective solutions for its business partners—LightSquared will be only as successful as they are. In turn, end users can enjoy the benefits of innovation and increasing competition." http://www.lightsquared.com/what-we-do/
Anixter:http://www.anixter.com - I believe Anixter might be the link to security and surveillance in the SmartCity Grid from MeshGlobal. Here is a blurb taken directly from the link below, "Anixter can provide you with quality enterprise cabling and security solutions including copper and fiber cable and connectivity. Anixter also carries a wide variety of infrastructure products like racks and cabinets, video surveillance and access control products for complete end-to-end systems." http://www.anixter.com/AXECOM/US.NSF/HomePage?OpenForm&Division=DivTab3
Solution Pro:http://www.solutionpro.com - Based in Idaho, Solution Pro could also be an intricate part of the pilot project from MeshGlobal and MDGC. MeshGlobal has identified Solution Pro as a Data Center and Technology Provider.
