DigitalBridge expands WiMAX network

HAILEY (WiMAX Day). DigitalBridge Communications announced yesterday that it has expanded its BridgeMAXX network to Hailey, Idaho. The company launched WiMAX services in the Northwestern state of Idaho last year, and Hailey is now its third site where the service is expected to reach 3,000 homes. DigitalBridge intends to further expand its WiMAX service to the cities of Ketchum and Sun Valley in Idaho, and later this year to Butte, Montana and Jackson, Wyoming. BridgeMAXX uses equipment from Alvarion, and is offered as a “plug-and-play” service, and the company reports that it delivers download speeds of up to 3Mbps and upload speeds of up to 2Mbps.
