Kansas To Get WiMax For Rural Areas
| October 12, 2008 |  View for printing |
While WiMax was being unveiled in recent days as Sprint Nextel (NYSE: S)'s introduction to its nationwide wireless broadband technology in urban areas, the technology was being deployed where many think it will find an even more welcome home: in a rural setting.
Rural Telephone Service Co. in Kansas said its Nex-Tech unit is readying the service for small cities in its Kansas service area that haven't been served by DSL, fiber, or other broadband technologies. Many of the towers for the service were installed in six to eight weeks by Redline Communications Group, the company said.
