POSDATA Wins Uzbekistan WiMAX Contract
South Korea's POSDATA has announced that they have been selected to supply Mobile WiMAX equipment to Super-iMAX, a telecommunication provider in Uzbekistan. Last October, KT Corporation acquired Super-iMAX to launch wireless internet and broadband services with 2.3GHz spectrum in the Uzbekistan region. Super-iMAX will begin offering Mobile WiMAX services in September 2008 and aims to expand their services nationwide.
POSDATA will provide Mobile WiMAX base stations, ASN-gateways, network management systems, as well as terminals for service subscribers. The system is based on 2.3GHz profile 1B and includes the latest Wave 2 technology, which supports Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology.
The deployment of the newly developed Mobile WiMAX network in Uzbekistan is a collaborative effort between POSDATA and KT Corporation.
“We are very excited about this win in Uzbekistan, it means a lot to us,” said Mr. Byung-Chang Yoo, CEO of POSDATA. He added that “POSDATA is entering the Central Asian markets for the first time and this reinforces our position as a global leader in Mobile WiMAX technology.”
No financial details were provided. FLYVO is the brand name for POSDATA’s mobile WiMAX business.
