Ignore 700 Mhz WiMAX at Your Peril - New Report Analyzes the Potential of This New Spectrum

Research and Markets (www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c74743) has announced the addition of WiMAX and the 700 MHz Auction: Peril or Opportunity for the Service Provider? to their offering.

The soon to be auctioned (January 24, 2008; filing deadline is December 3, 2007) 700 MHz presents powerful opportunities for service providers using WiMAX. This new spectrum can be a blessing or a curse for incumbent telecom network operators as the spectrum has excellent propagation characteristics and will be used for a variety of new broadband wireless applications that will compete with 3G cellular. In short, there could be five new 700 MHz wireless service providers for any point in the United States.

This 150-page presentation was developed through years of experience with WiMAX implementation and operation coupled with analysis of the potential for 700 MHz. Frank Ohrtman is one of the very few consultants to shepherd successful, incumbent telephone companies through WiMAX deployments. He brings a depth of knowledge and insight that is rare and exceptionally timely for this auction. Among other insights, Frank has a profound vision for the broadband wireless applications that justify investment and will provide a compelling business case.

This presentation is a "must have" document for anyone seeking guidance concerning the potential for 700 MHz and the opportunities and pitfalls associated with the auction. Purchasers at the Company-wide level for this publication also receive a one hour of complementary telephone consultation from the author to allow the organization to ask questions and seek further guidance.
