Business Case: Access Network

Access network is largest contributor toend-to-end network cost• WiMAX overlay can reuse existing cellular

infrastructure for cost-effective broadband access

Cost-effective solutions for rural or urbanenvironments• Spectral efficiency is a key factor for urban deployments

• Fewer base stations to meet data density requirements

• Range/coverage and low base station cost is key for rural deployments• Self-contained, all-outdoor base station solution reduces

infrastructure and installation cost

11

Proprietary Information.

Business Case: End User Devices

Global, standards-based solution drives volume• Assures availability of low cost, end-user devices

More than 130 certified end-user devices

Growing number of multi-mode, multi-band devices• Simultaneous support for

WiMAX, 3G, WiFi, etc.• Support for global roaming

Embedded WiMAX capability eliminates costly operator subsidization• Laptops, netbooks, etc.
