Airspan Networks Inc. (NASDAQ: AIRN) announced that Netspread, one of Botswana's leading ISPs, has chosen Airspan as its WiMAX equipment provider and has begun deployments of MicroMAX base stations and ProST customer premises equipment.
Netspread has operations in eight cities throughout Botswana. After receiving an exclusive license in the 5.4 GHz band, Netspread chose Airspan's flexible and robust MicroMAX and ProST WiMAX solution to provide broadband wireless services to government offices and businesses. The MicroMAX base station harnesses the quality of service normally only supported by larger and more expensive base station options. With the ability to tailor services to meet specific user needs, MicroMAX offers high performance packaged in a small, convenient and easy-to-deploy box.
Botswana, a country approximately the size of Texas, has over 2 million residents and boasts a per Capita GDP exceeding $16,000. Botswana's combination of a young population eager for connectivity and an Internet penetration rate of just 3% makes this a perfect market for wireless broadband.[SM]
