Alvarion Wins Italian Nationwide WiMAX Contract

­Alvarion says that it has won a contract from Italian leading wireless broadband service provider and nationwide WiMAX license holder, Linkem Spa to deploy WiMAX across Italy using its 4Motion solution for the 3.5 GHz frequency band.

The first phase of the project has commenced in October 2008 and provides voice and data services to SOHO, businesses and vertical markets.

Linkem holds WiMAX licenses in thirteen regions across Italy, which covers over 80% of the entire Italian population. Linkem plans to deploy Mobile WiMAX networks in both rural and urban settings, and connect all thirteen regions to high-speed broadband access and services by 2013.

“Compelled to offer the best WiMAX service to our customers, we chose Alvarion’s end-to-end Mobile WiMAX solution,” said Davide Rota, CEO of Linkem. “We are confident that Alvarion’s solution will enable us to meet our goal of providing advanced broadband services at competitive rates and unmatched quality to our subscribers.”

4Motion is the foundation of Alvarion’s OPEN WiMAX ecosystem, which combines its industry leading BreezeMAX RAN (radio access network) with other systems for an enhanced product offering. The use of 4Motion for its network build out provides Linkem with a better business case as 4Motion offers better coverage and capacity, making it easier to introduce a variety of revenue-generating services.
