ACCESS TELECOM AND NEXTNET LAUNCH BANGLADESH’S FIRST 3.5 GHZ NLOS PLUG-AND-PLAY BROADBAND WIRELESS SERVICES.



DHAKA, BANGLADESH and MINNEAPOLIS, MN– 7 October 2004 – Access Telecom, a leading Internet Service Provider in Bangladesh, and NextNet Wireless, Inc., the world’s largest provider of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) plug-and-play broadband wireless access systems, today announced the commercial availability of XSTREAM NLOS, a wireless broadband service for business and residential users. Access Telecom was the first ISP in Bangladesh to introduce broadband services commencing operation in 2000. Once again, Access Telecom is the first to deliver commercial NLOS plug-and-play broadband services operating over licensed 3.5GHz wireless spectrum.

The XSTREAM NLOS service provides reliable, always-on, broadband services using a small self-installable wireless modem that does not require users to download software or to configure their laptop or desktop computers. The “user-friendly” wireless modem operates indoors or outdoors, from anywhere within Access Telecom’s wide area network (WAN), creating a new freedom for subscriber’s to connect to the Internet from multiple locations. It can be used at the office, at home, at school, in a café, in a hotel, at the airport, etc. – anywhere within Access Telecom’s coverage area. The XSTREAM NLOS service provides reliable competitively priced broadband solutions to meet the demands and requirements of today’s businesses and residential communities.

“This is the first affordable-for-all and truly superior quality broadband solution for Bangladesh,” said Zain Omar, Chief Executive Officer for Access Telecom (BD) Ltd. “But the real breakthrough today is that this world-class, user-friendly broadband technology makes it possible to connect clients within minutes of the client requesting connectivity from anywhere within the coverage area, thus providing instant broadband service when you need it, where you need it, at an affordable cost.”

Access Telecom’s licensed frequency of 3.5 GHz guarantees that XSTREAM NLOS clients will not face any interference to their broadband experience. XSTREAM NLOS is based on an advanced wireless technology developed by Minneapolis, U.S.A-based NextNet Wireless, Inc. This same technology is deployed today by NextNet’s carrier partners over licensed frequencies in cities throughout Asia, Africa, North America, Latin America, and Mexico. XSTREAM NLOS is an IP-based network that supports delivery of all IP compatible broadband applications.

“We are honored to partner with Access Telecom,” stated Bill Hagestad, NextNet Director of Asian Regional Sales. “The XSTREAM NLOS service creates new possibilities for fast and reliable broadband connectivity in Bangladesh, allowing for a more networked economy and society.”

“We are proud to be Access Telecom's strategic financial partners and are excited about their cutting-edge technology and network expansion,” said Ashfaq Ahmed, Deputy General Manager & Head of Corporate Division of IDLC.
