ENCINO, Calif. & BEIJING--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 13, 2002

CBCom Inc. (OTCBB OTCBB

See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB).
: CBCI) today announced that it is introducing wireless broadband High-speed wireless transmission of data. What is "high" speed is always a changing number. Wireless systems are typically slower than land-based, wireline networks. In the past, wireless broadband started at 250 Kbps, whereas land-based broadband was generally considered to start at T1  access and control to provide a turnkey solution to companies as well as large public forums such as airports, hotels and hospitals. CBCom has already signed up a hospital, a number of hotels and a club in Beijing.

 server located in one of its main IT centers, and low cost satellite servers located in each of its customer locations. CBCom's products are distinguished from other competing products in that they are sold as part of a total broadband control solution and CBCom will earn revenue on both broadband access and maintenance contracts. The system allows the operation of a comprehensive wireless and wired broadband network with no local IT maintenance staff required.

CBCom's products are one of the fastest and easiest systems to implement. All system maintenance, backups, and software updates are handled remotely. Customer installed hardware is modular and any failure of any network component can be restored within minutes.

The solution allows local operators to completely control their networks through access to CBCom's centralized management servers. Customers enjoy a full suite of billing options that can integrate with their existing billing systems, with provisions for advertising and other value-added services A value-added service (VAS) is a telecommunications industry term for non-core services or, in short, all services beyond standard voice calls and fax transmissions. .

In a recent interview, Gordon Gao explained that "With all the expectations of growth in wireless broadband, it is still virtually unused in China. Even where there are multiple users, such as public access in shopping centers, internet cafes, etc., the major carriers continue to struggle to efficiently install broadband. We have found a quick and low cost way to allow anyone to enjoy wireless and wired broadband and we make money on the broadband access and maintenance contract fees. The flexibility of the system's bandwidth control and billing integration capabilities make it just as useful for a hotel as it is useful for managing networks in a large office building. Wireless broadband revenues are no longer reserved for the large telecoms."
