Major Navini Deployment in Mexico

Mexico is trending towards ubiquitous BWIA coverage. Ultravision recently revealed that they plan to deploy Navini and Aperto Networks systems in their licensed 2.5-2.7 GHz spectrum. Combined with existing and planned 2.5-2.7 GHz deployments in Mexico by MVSNet (using NextNet Wireless and Aperto Networks systems), Mexico could well have national BWIA coverage in the next several years, with some healthy competition between two BWIA Service Providers. Two things are especially notable: 1) both use two different vendors, one of which offers self-installable Non-Line-Of-Sight systems, and 2) the second vendor in each case is Aperto Networks, who has been achieving a large number of notable deployements of late.

  • About Steve Stroh

    In 1996, I was fascinated to discover that providing Internet Access via license-exempt wireless technologies was not only possible, but being done routinely by a small band of pioneering Internet Service Providers.

    By mid-1997, I was writing professionally about Broadband Wireless Internet Access (BWIA) as a monthly columnist in Boardwatch Magazine.

    In 2000, I began writing about BWIA full time in my own blogs, for numerous other publications, and my own subscription newsletter.

    From 2008 - 2015, I took a hiatus from writing about BWIA, but my interest in BWIA did not wane. From 2016 - 2020 I worked to resume writing full time.
