“Wireless mobility in residential homes and businesses is quite new in larger parts of the world,” said Gregory C. Carrington, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of WebNet Global. “There is an opportunity in virtually every city in the EU -- both large and small -- that we can capitalize on with Hopling Technologies’ HopWARE Mesh Architecture with its built-in cost-effective coverage capabilities. This will allow us to deploy mobile services rapidly and cost-efficiently in our planned operating areas. It will also let us quickly scale the wireless network as demand requires.”

“Hopling Technologies was chosen out of 30 potential suppliers because of the following features: scalability, mobility, throughput of broadband along with equipment reliability, multiple frequencies, customer and corporate satisfaction of existing deployments, supplier history, deliverability and pricing,” said Frank Koopman, Chief Executive Officer of Hopling Technologies. “By using Hopling Technologies state-of-art mesh nodes and associated Managed Services program we can offer WebNet Global EU a complete solution including network management for wireless voice, data and video applications.”
