I would like to welcome an old friend here to WISPA membership. Many of you have known Patrick Leary for years as a friend of the WISP industry. Patrick has recently joined forces with Aperto Networks. Today Aperto Networks is a Vendor Member of WISPA and Patrick Leary as their representative within our membership. Please join me in welcoming Patrick Leary and Aperto Networks as WISPA's newest Vendor Member. Here is a little information about Aperto Networks straight from Patrick Leary:
Aperto is very proud to join WISPA, the premier voice and advocacy organization for WISPs. In celebration, we will later today offer a special WISPA-members only WiMAX promotion that will make it easy for any WISP to give a top WiMAX solution a try. Aperto Networks is the only home grown and U.S.- based WiMAX equipment provider. As an 802.16 pioneer, Aperto was founded in 1999 solely to make and offer outdoor wireless broadband solutions using 802.16. It provided signficant key technology that created the 802.16 standard and is a charter member of the WiMAX Forum. Aperto's entire product line is WiMAX-based and it provides solutions in all 5 GHz bands, the 4.9 GHz public safety band, 3.65 GHz, the 2.5 GHz BRS/EBS bands and a range of international bands centered around 3.5 GHz. With over 25 link-optimizing patents or patents-pending that comprise Aperto's secret-sauce, Aperto offers the highest QoS than any WiMAX system, as well as packet per second more than twice other solutions. These and Aperto's cost-effective products, make the systems ideal for voice and data double play WISP business models. The Aperto of today is easy to do business with. Our WISP effort has the support and commitment of the entire Aperto executive team and we've re-structured to serve North America. We hope you'll give us a fair hearing as you move forward in your businesses.
