WiMAX Forum Announces First WiMAX Forum Certified Products
The WiMAX Forum revealed the first companies and products to complete certification and interoperability testing, including Aperto Networks' PacketMAX 5000 base station, Redline Communications' RedMAX AN-100U base station, SEQUANS Communications' SQN2010 SoC base station solution, and Wavesat's miniMAX customer premise equipment (CPE) solution.
About one year ago, the price was about US15,000 for one pair of BS+CPE. This is definitely too high for pervasive broadband wireless access. Hope fully with the more certified WiMAX products, the price will drop very fast. Meanwhile, I am also looking forward to the incorporation of WiMAX chip into notebooks which will make to CPE price much affordable for end users.
