Russian telecom operator, Comstar UTS, announced this week that it had
started deploying a new mobile broadband network in neighbouring Armenia, using
WiMAX technology.
“We intend to launch the network this year and, therefore, become the first and
the largest wireless broadband Internet operator in Armenia,” said Comstar
president, Sergei Pridantsev, in a statement Thursday. The network is expected
to cover some 75% of Armenia’s population, according to a spokesman.
Comstar has selected Airspan Networks to provide Mobile WiMAX base stations and
other equipment for the Armenian network, but did not disclose the dollar value
of this deal.
Mobile WiMAX is an emerging broadband technology, allowing for the transmission
of large amounts of data over wireless networks. Its natural applications
include wireless video and multimedia services.
