VSNL to showcase WiMax Broadband Service at BangaloreIT.in 2007

BANGALORE:29-Oct-2007.

VSNL, a retail Broadband and Internet provider in India has announced its plans to preview WiMax, its wireless broadband service at BangaloreIT.in 2007.

For those who are unaware, BangaloreIT.in 2007 is a four day event hosted by the Department of IT and the Government of Karnataka from October 29, 2007.

BangaloreIT.in 2007 will offer customers the chance to experience the next-generation of Internet access and to understand the unique range of services that VSNL has lined up.

VSNL was the first company to commercially roll out WiMax in India for enterprise customers in May 2007.

Moreover, over the next two months, VSNL has also planned to commercially roll out its WiMax services in Bangalore to retail customers.

WiMAX enables wireless infrastructure deployment in a cost effective, decentralized and effective manner in places like India where the entire country is not covered by wireline infrastructure.

In the future, WiMax will also allow for Mobile Internet access at much higher speeds than what is experienced at present.

According to Prateek Pashine, Vice President- Planning- VSNL, “The 4-day seminar cum exhibition at the BanagaloreIT.in 2007 will be a platform to showcase our WiMax service and its unique value added services and to engage with potential customers and channel partners.”
