GREEN PACKET LAUNCHES WiMAX CPE AND UNVEILS PRODUCT LINES TO TAKE TO THE GLOBAL MARKET

24th September 2008, Petaling Jaya: The solutions division of Green Packet Berhad today launched a range of WiMAX CPE (Customer Premise Equipment), as well as its communication and monitoring solutions which will be marketed to Telecommunication Service Providers across the globe.

Green Packet aims to become the global leading developer of Next Generation Wireless Broadband and Mobile Networking Solutions, and will be the first for any Malaysian-grown ICT company in the WiMAX space.

Green Packet Senior General Manager, Kelvin Lee, said to achieve this, the Company is strategically growing its client and partner base via its WiMAX devices and seamless mobility communication solutions.  He said the expanded geographic footprint would include South East Asia and Oceania, Greater China, East Asia, the Middle East & Africa and South America.

“With our new product offerings, we are targeting Telecommunication Service Providers (Telcos), Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and device manufacturers in markets which are set to experience rapid growth in the area of wireless broadband. Having already successfully provided tailored solutions to these industries in many countries, including Malaysia, we believe we can achieve our objective,” Lee said. 

Green Packet launched a series of WiMAX CPE including outdoor and indoor modems, and its “IN” series communication products -Intouch, Infinit, Interact– as well as, the PacketEyes monitoring solution, which fall under the Group’s Software and Value-Added Services (VAS) product line.

The products are designed to be the consumer platform of choice for device manufacturers, Telcos and ISPs.  The products offer a flexible platform and deliver compelling services enabling a better end-user experience to subscribers whilst enjoying accelerated gains.

“Green Packet’s products make it easy for the end-consumer to access wireless broadband anywhere, anytime. With a simple click of a button, consumers can switch seamlessly between access networks such as from WiFi to GPRS, 3G or WiMAX. This is very appealing to the consumer and a compelling proposition for the service providers,” said Lee.

“Our clients will reap the benefits of an increase in subscriber base, increased on-net traffic and consumer-focused solutions which improve customer retention, loyalty and which increases ARPU.  This is all delivered via a flexible and scalable platform, designed to be easily integrated into an existing wireless broadband network,” Lee added.

Lee went on to say that Green Packet’s WiMAX CPE were field-tested for interoperability by Packet One Networks (P1), which was the first to launch WiMAX commercial services in Malaysia and the Asia Pacific region in August this year.  “This means our devices are tried and tested so that our partners can be assured of quality, compatibility and reliability.”

The Intouch Connection Manager from the “IN” series, is a communication product that  is already enjoying great customer traction, having been successfully deployed into the Telco environment in China, Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia. 

Both WiMAX CPE and Intouch Connection Manager will see further success in the global market as Green Packet has already partnered with a major global player and this, will be formally announced later this month.
