GigaBeam Announces Further Expansion to California Market Following Latest Order for Deployment of Company's Next Generation Wireless Technology.Company Continues Expansion in Tech-Forward Economic Centers Across the U.S. DURHAM, N.C. -- GigaBeam Corporation (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :GGBM), deploying WiFiber[R] "wireless fiber optics fiber optics, transmission of digitized messages or information by light pulses along hair-thin glass fibers. Each fiber is surrounded by a cladding having a high index of refractance so that the light is internally reflected and travels the length of the fiber " technology to economic centers across the globe, announced today that it has received an order for two of the Company's G1.25 WiFiber links and one 100 megabit product link from a fiber backbone telecommunications carrier based A transmission system that generates a fixed frequency (carrier) to contain the data being transmitted. See carrier. in California. It plans to leverage the Company's next generation 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 technology to expand a Metro Ethernet A metropolitan area network (MAN) that uses a 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) backbone rather than SONET/SDH links. Ethernet offers a more economical alternative. In a Metro Ethernet network, multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) may be deployed to provide quality of service (QoS). network. The Company expects to drive additional revenues from the projected growth of this industry-leading partner's network which will be able to bypass the existing telecommunications infrastructure at fiber-like speed and reliability. "I am pleased to announce that GigaBeam is achieving further penetration into the California market," said Louis Slaughter, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GigaBeam. "We believe that this new order provides another example of how GigaBeam can help telecommunications service In telecommunication, the term telecommunications service has the following meanings: 1. Any service provided by a telecommunication provider. 2. companies grow their infrastructures efficiently and cost effectively. GigaBeam continues to make progress towards our vision of establishing next generation networks around the globe utilizing our technology and products." GigaBeam's WiFiber technology is similar to terrestrial fiber in terms of speed and reliability. WiFiber has a substantial advantage over terrestrial fiber because it can be rapidly deployed and costs significantly less to deploy than terrestrial fiber. Terrestrial fiber can take months to deploy and also require significant regulatory and environmental approvals prior to installation. GigaBeam WiFiber products operate in the 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz upper millimeter wave spectrum bands. The Federal Communications Commission Federal Communications Commission (FCC), independent executive agency of the U.S. government established in 1934 to regulate interstate and foreign communications in the public interest. and the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations
The European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT CEPT - Comite Europeen des Postes et Telecommunications ) and certain other countries for licensed wireless commercial use have authorized this portion of the spectrum. About GigaBeam Corporation GigaBeam's WiFiber[R] product ushers in a new era of communications by allowing customers to bypass the restrictive telecom oligopoly oligopoly: see monopoly. oligopoly Market situation in which producers are so few that the actions of each of them have an impact on price and on competitors. Each producer must consider the effect of a price change on the others. and connect directly to any city's fiber optics hub or Point-of-Presence (POP). The disruptive impact of an easily deployable, low cost alternative to fiber optics cables is difficult to overestimate, especially since WiFiber's point-to-point high-speed units transmit data via the highest approved radio frequency at speeds equal to 641 T1 lines or 1000 DSL DSL in full Digital Subscriber Line Broadband digital communications connection that operates over standard copper telephone wires. It requires a DSL modem, which splits transmissions into two frequency bands: the lower frequencies for voice (ordinary lines. Current GigaBeam partners, customers, and end-users include Google, Verizon, ING, Sprint, The Department of Defense, as well as several cities and universities such as San Francisco San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden and Boston University. The Company has implemented strategy to expand into major metropolitan areas around the world. GigaBeam's management team, which pioneered rule making in the 70GHz and 80GHz spectrum, is fully committed to augmenting current revenues through a network of authorized dealers and resellers across North America, South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, India and Asia that have local expertise and established contacts.
