Alvarion has announced a WiMAX pilot with French operator Bolloré telecom in the south of France. The pilot is based on Alvarion's end-to-end mobile WiMAX 4Motion solution operating at 3.5 GHz frequency band.
The live pilot will connect many USB devices and PC cards given to owners of docked boats at Marina Port, Vauban. The pilot, which could potentially extend to an additional 350 marinas in France, aims to demonstrate the next generation wireless applications to tourists, visitors and local businesses in the area.
"The pilot is conducted using Alvarion's end-to-end mobile WiMAX solution that consists of latest technology and feature sets," said Tzvika Friedman, CEO of Alvarion. "Bolloré telecom's planned network makes an excellent platform to test the delivery of cutting edge WiMAX services. This test network will allow people to experience a variety of wireless broadband services in real time."
Bolloré telecom has operations in France through licenses at 3,5GHz covering 20 out of 22 regions, and Western Africa.
