This wireless standard is designed to support highly reliable wideband wireless communications for electric and gas utilities and other critical infrastructure industries.
Select Spectrum is now working to support the 802.16t revision which will allow consolidation of multiple narrow channel frequencies to provide wideband speeds.
Select Spectrum markets licenses for bands compatible with the standard.
