At an event held in Mumbai yesterday, Sify along with Proxim Wireless launched its new WiMAX solution with mobility features.
In order to demonstrate the range and mobility features of the solution, the launch was held about 5 km away from land on a catamaran cruising along the sea with a live demonstration of a 3.3 Ghz based product of 802.16d WiMAX standard.
Regarded as the first-of-its-kind solution, Sify has chosen and deployed Proxim Wireless's Tsunami MP.11 WiMAX product line as the core communications platform for last mile access using the 5.8 GHz frequency band.
