NextPhase Wireless Awarded Nationwide WiMAX License
ANAHEIM, Calif., Jan. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NextPhase Wireless (OTC Bulletin Board: NPHS - News), a nationwide developer of WiMAX-ready networks and provider of advanced wireless broadband solutions, today announced that the Company has received confirmation from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that their application for a nationwide license to provide WiMAX wireless services in the newly released 3.65 GHz band (3650-3700 MHz) had been approved.
"In late 2007, the FCC acknowledged the challenges faced in deploying WiMAX services in the US, and opened up the 3.65 - 3.7 GHz band for Wireless Broadband Services in an attempt to 'encourage multiple entrants and stimulate the expansion of broadband service to rural and under-served areas'. Applications for nationwide licenses were accepted from November 12, 2007, and I'm happy to announce that our application to provide WiMAX wireless services in the newly released GHz band has been approved," said Robert Ford, President and CEO.
"Combined with the recently announced LMDS (Local Multipoint Distribution Service) spectrum that we've acquired in certain key markets (Atlanta, Georgia; Los Angeles, California; Miami/Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania/Wilmington, Delaware/Trenton, New Jersey) we now have all of the elements in place to deliver a comprehensive portfolio of business-grade broadband services, at speeds ranging from 3 Mb/s to 622 Mb/s," added Ford.
