Sprint WiMAX approach emerges
January 23, 2007

Sprint plans to launch its WiMAX service in Chicago and Washington, D.C., in early 2008, and we now have an inkling as to the speed and cost of the service. A Sprint executive used this year’s CES to intimate to reporters that users should expect speeds around 2-4 Mbps for an estimated $55 a month. The company will allow consumers to connect several devices to the WiMAX network. More info.

Happy New Year!

We would like to thank all of our customers and friends for a great 2006 and what looks to be an even better 2007.

Comprehensive Communications enhances Internet In Motion with
EV-DO Broadband Performance for mobile and remote communications

Enhanced services broaden applications to include commercial and industrial wireless IP networks

Palatine, IL - August 7, 2006 - Comprehensive Communications Systems Corp. (CCSC) today announced the addition of broadband performance to its Internet In Motion series of wireless communications products. Internet in Motion now incorporates cellular/PCS CDMA EV-DO technology to provide high-speed wireless communications to on-the-go.

Internet In Motion provides users with wireless internet connection throughout the country on the Sprint PCS digital network. The addition of EV-DO not only provides broadband-speed connections, but extends the reach of the connections to the largest all-digital, all-PCS nationwide network. The new technology, in addition to much higher speeds, has also proven to experience significantly fewer dropped connections

Using traditional 1XrTT cellular technology, CCSC has focused primarily on the recreational vehicle marketplace, keeping RV users connected to the internet while they are on the road. Enhanced with EV-DO technology, Internet In Motion becomes ideally suited to a broad range of mobile and remote applications where rapidly downloading large amounts of data is of paramount importance. In law-enforcement and public safety, for example, officers need to quickly display data-intensive applications in order to respond to immediate situations. According to Joyce Cutsforth, President of CCSC, “Commercial and industrial users can now think of Internet in Motion as a wireless extension of their IP Network for remote and mobile applications.” Public safety, financial transactions, telemetry, remote instrumentation, and surveillance, are ideal applications.

Key components of the Internet In Motion solution value proposition are the high quality external mounted dual tri-band Phantom antennas coupled with a cellular router optimized for the internet and data communications. “CCSC’s unique remote Support and Network Management System has been also developed to increase over-all performance and improve Quality of Service, and to reduce on-going operational costs associated with mobile and wireless remote IP networks,” adds Cutsforth.

In addition to broadband performance, Internet In Motion also supports Assisted Global Positioning (A-GPS) a network positioning technology widely deployed for wireless E9-1-1. AGPS employs the power of the wireless network to provide precise positioning even in environments such as urban canyons and parking garages where conventional GPS would be unreliable. The integration of A-GPS and broadband wireless data makes Internet In Motion ideal addressing applications such as mobile service trucks, emergency vehicles, and fleet management.

Good morning,
Just a few quick notes–

  • IIM’s EV-DO System (Sprint Only) is ready for full scale deployment. Recent testing went very well. Last week we ran the IIM EV-DO system parallel to the Kyocera KR1 with a Sierra Wireless 580 Sprint EV-DO card installed for over 6 hours running from Palatine, Illinois to Bowling Green, Kentucky. Both systems were monitored continuously for network connection and at regular intervals for Speed performance.

    The results were the IIM system had a 98% uptime, 2 drops for a total of 4 minutes for the entire duration of the trip. The KR1/SierraWireless had an uptime of 65%, 27 drops for a total of 147 minutes off the air.

  • Just an interesting note, we’ve been testing the Sprint EV-DO system extensively with a wide variety of streaming media and have found it an excellant platform for video.
  • Finally, we have been doing a wide variety of on the water testing with the 1XRTT version of the IIM System and currently have it on board a Lake Michigan racing yacht. Performance details to follow.
