" marketing strategy, inviting college IT directors to experience the 5G Wireless Solution at existing campus installations.

The first of this series is scheduled for October 14 at Cedarville University (http://cedarville.edu/) in Cedarville, Ohio. The company has already lined up 38 attendees from 17 surrounding colleges who will participate in a "Planning a Wireless Campus" seminar, followed by a tour and demo of the 5G wireless broadband network currently in operation. Cedarville University is the first U.S. campus to utilize the company's new "cellular-style" Wi-Fi base stations.

"Our experience suggests that no matter how well prospects understand Wi-Fi, 5G's next generation 'Access/Not Excess' value proposition represents such a disruptive new market approach that a live, hands-on technology demo at one of our campus installations is essential," stated Frank Simonelli, 5G's Vice President of Marketing. "Our strategy will thus become more geographically-focused to leverage our existing networks throughout the country. We will also tie-in to scheduled trade show exhibitions to create other points-of-contact to schedule either future demos or actual installs. In this case, we're inviting those who cannot attend to stop by our booth at the annual EduCause conference in Orlando October 18. We're always looking to improve ROI (Return On Investment) The monetary benefits derived from having spent money on developing or revising a system. In the IT world, there are more ways to compute ROI than Carter has liver pills (and for those of you who never heard of that expression, it means a lot).  on our marketing dollars, and we expect this strategy to represent a cost-effective alternative to most other forms of promotional spending."

5G provides the Cedarville campus with nearly 100% coverage utilizing only two cellular-style base stations. Other solutions would have required close to 100 individual access points, adding not only to initial capital equipment costs, but, more importantly, to ongoing operational expenses associated with administration and maintenance. An efficient and elegant solution, coupled with one of the lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO (1) (Total Cost of Ownership) The cost of using a computer. It includes the cost of the hardware, software and upgrades as well as the cost of the inhouse staff and/or consultants that provide training and technical support. See ROI. ) per sq. km metrics in the industry, has become a hallmark of the 5G approach.

The 175-acre Cedarville campus is home to over 3000 students and 280 faculty members.
