WiMAX Forum More Than Doubles Membership with Addition of Major Operators,
Infrastructure and Equipment Providers
AT&T, Covad, Siemens mobile, PCCW, ZTE Corporation
Among 39 New Members Joining Forum
SAN JOSE, Calif. – Jan. 14, 2004 – The WiMAX Forum, dedicated to certifying the interoperability of
broadband wireless access (BWA) products based on global standards, announced today it has more than
doubled its membership from 28 to 67 members in a matter of five months. Reflecting the growing
industry-wide confidence in BWA standards, operators such as AT&T (NYSE: T), Covad (OTCBB:
COVD) and Hong Kong-based PCCW (SEHK: 0008 and NYSE: PCW) and infrastructure providers such
as Siemens mobile (NYSE: SI) and China-based ZTE Corporation (SSE Code: 0063) joined the Forum.
Among the new members are a number of established BWA original equipment manufacturers including
Axxcelera Broadband Wireless, Beamreach Networks, Intracom (ASE: INTRK), KarlNet, NextNet
Wireless, REMEC (NASDAQ: REMC) and Vyyo (NASDAQ: VYYO). For a complete list of WiMAX
Forum members, visit www.WiMAXForum.org.
“We are delighted to have the active participation of prominent operators, infrastructure providers and
BWA innovators that share the belief that interoperability of standards-compliant systems are essential to
delivering cost-effective broadband services on a global scale,” said WiMAX Forum President Margaret
LaBrecque. “BWA is here, it’s proven, and its potential is clear, and WiMAX Forum members are
critical in driving growth and delivering innovation for the industry. This is the first of what will be many
significant milestones for the WiMAX Forum this year, as we work to bring WiMAX-Certified™
products to market.”
Through WiMAX-led efforts, the economies of scale made possible by standards-based, interoperable
products will drive price and performance levels unachievable by proprietary approaches. As a result,
service providers across global markets will be able to deliver economical broadband data, voice and
video services to both residential and business customers.
“With the IEEE 802.16a standard, carriers are able to offer enterprise and residential customers more
options for broadband connectivity at a lower cost. For many people worldwide who cannot get access to
broadband connectivity via cable or DSL, the new wireless technology will be their way to the Internet,”
explains Christoph Caselitz, president of networks within the Information and Communication Mobile
Group of Siemens.
“AT&T is investigating network access alternatives for both its business and consumer customer base.
Standardization and interoperability efforts, like those proposed by WiMAX, traditionally drive down
costs. We would welcome that outcome with broadband wireless access systems,” said Christopher Rice,
director of Broadband Networking Technology at AT&T Labs Research. “We look forward to
participating in WiMAX, working with their members, and providing carrier insight into how broadband
wireless solutions can be used to cost-effectively deliver network services.”
Building on the organization’s growth and momentum, the WiMAX Forum will host “WiMAX Forum
Day” Tuesday, January 20 in San Jose, Calif., immediately preceding WCA’s 10th Annual Technical
Symposium and Business Expo January 21 – 23. This open session, coupled with a series of WiMAX
Forum member presentations during the Symposium, will highlight the organization’s recent activities
and future roadmap for delivering WiMAX-Certified products. A complete agenda is available at
www.WiMAXForum.org.
Please visit the WiMAX Forum booth at the WCA Symposium, No. 416.
