[WISPA] 3650Mhz and Wimax Vendors

[Jeff Ehman]

We have quite a few live Aperto networks being deployed with residential and/or business services.  I am not going to speak for the deployment of Aperto gear over the entire U.S. but I can say they are out there.

I don't think anything from my first paragraph makes Aperto not  
viable. I am not sure I even like the term viable. I wouldn't suggest  
Aperto or recommend them as a WiMAX vendor. Of course, I don't have  
any direct experience with Aperto's current product line. Therefore, I  
can't compare and contrast their offerings to other WiMAX vendors that  
I do have experience with. Anecdotical evidence suggests that Aperto  
is not widely deployed. According to Aperto's press releases I only  
see one company mentioned that has deployed their WiMAX gear in the  
US. I don't know much about Zing to which the press release mentions.  
What I do know is that according to ULS they have only been approved  
to deploy a single Aperto radio. Further, at WiMAX World last year it  
seemed that Zing's CTO was employed by Aperto in sales. Compare this  
to Redline and Alvarion, which have lots of approved radios in ULS and  
multiple US customers including some large customers.
