Mundo Startel will join forces with Alvarion LTD. to expand WiMAX services in Angola.
“Angola’s demand for broadband connectivity coupled with the lack of wired infrastructure makes WiMAX technology an ideal solution for the country,” said Tzvika Friedman, president and CEO of Alvarion.
Mundo will launch their fixed-line ISP operations for both businesses and homes in Angola with Alvarion’s BreezeMAX solution at the 3.6 GHz frequency. This will stimulate economic growth in the region.
“Broadband services are highly essential for the development of Angola’s growing population which currently stands at over 13 million. This project enhances the everyday life of people, and allows them access to new opportunities,” said Paulo Garcia, managing director of Mundo Startel.
Mundo and Alvarion’s previous WiMAX deployment in Angola’s capital city Luanda has been successful.
