Alvarion wins Italy mobile WiMAX deal
Aria, the only operator in Italy with a nationwide WiMAX license, has chosen Alvarion as its equipment provider. Aria will use the 3.5 GHz frequency band in its attempt to bring mobile WiMAX service to all 21 regions in Italy. Although Italians in larger municipalities enjoy access to several broadband providers, in rural and mountainous areas such as the Dolomiti, the only option is usually dial-up service.
“At Aria, we are committed to empowering businesses and consumers to realize the impact of high bandwidth, quality data and voice services, and we have full confidence in Alvarion’s innovative WiMAX platform and services to ensure we deliver on this promise,” said Davidi Gilo, CEO of Aria. “Alvarion’s 4Motion solution will enable us to bring highly advanced broadband services throughout the country.”
“We are pleased to be selected for another large WiMAX project through our partnership with Aria, one of Italy’s leading telecommunications providers,” said Tzvika Friedman, president and CEO, Alvarion Ltd. “This contract confirms Alvarion’s Mobile WiMAX solution as the most advanced solution in the market, and our leading position as a long-term partner for WiMAX. Our cutting edge technology, proven business model and tailored solutions will provide the ultimate broadband services to the consumers and businesses in Italy.”
