The judges for the award look for companies who are successfully bringing WiMAX to market and providing their customers with exceptional solutions to facilitate business growth. Both of our award winning modems are designed to be user-friendly while incorporating the very best in innovative technology.”

“Congratulations to Green Packet for being named a winner of the 2009 WiMAX Distinction Award for their accomplishments in the advancement of WiMAX solutions,” said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Group Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY. “Both the U Series Modem and the D Series Modem have proven that they made advancements in the bourgeoning WiMAX marketplace while providing customers with solutions to help grow their businesses.”

The Second Annual INTERNET TELEPHONY WiMAX Distinction Award also recognizes the vision, leadership and attention to detail that are the hallmarks of this prestigious award. The most innovative WiMAX products and services were selected as recipients of this year’s award for their groundbreaking achievement.

Green Packet Solutions’ WiMAX Indoor Modem, also known as the D Series presents a quick and easy way for residential users to get connected to WiMAX without any complex configuration. In addition, the D Series offers an integrated WiFi 802.11b/g ‘Access Point’, VoIP capabilities (voice devices such as fax machine or phone) over WiMAX networks and maintenance time savings through ‘ over-the-air configuration’ and software upgrades , all of which is housed in a stylish design.

Green Packet Solutions’ U Series WiMAX USB Modem, is ideal for users who are constantly on the move. It provides instant WiMAX connectivity anytime, anywhere, by simply plugging the modem into a USB port. The unique attribute of the U Series Modem is its ability to offer seamless mobility across networks over secured mobile VPN through the built in Connection Manager platform. An example of this would be a user moving from WiMAX to WiFi and back to a WiMAX coverage area, enjoying seamless connectivity without ever having to re-establish a new connection.

Other innovations built in to the super sleek designed U Series are, over-the-air configuration / software upgrading / troubleshooting services, superior signal quality and robust connection thanks to its combined 3.5dBi dipole antenna

Both the D Series and the U Series are fully compliant with the 802.16e-2005 (Mobile WiMAX) Standard and tailored for the 2.3Ghz, 2.5Ghz and 3.5Ghz range of frequencies.

“At Green Packet we recognise the competitive nature of the ICT industry and that the most important aspects of that are reducing broadband last mile infrastructure CAPEX and increasing ARPU (Average Revenue Per User). By providing faster and more stable connections, complete seamless mobility, plug-and-play easy convenience and a host of VAS applications, end-users are happier with their operators, which translates to customer loyalty, ultimately meaning increased ARPU. This award is a proof that our solutions and technological innovation do deliver and are best-in-class,” concluded Kelvin Lee.
