/PanARMENIAN.Net/ iCON Communications, the newest provider of wireless
broadband IP based communications services in Armenia, is on track
to launch its WiMAX service in Yerevan prior by January 2009, and
extending its coverage into major cities in Armenia during 2009,
Adam Kablanian, Chief Executive Officer of iCON Communications,
told journalists today.
WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a
telecommunications standard based technology that ensures secure and
reliable wireless fixed, nomadic or mobile data transmission. The
technology will offer initially high speed internet that is a wireless
alternative for cable and DSL, thus allowing users to enjoy an
information highway to the world anywhere and anytime. WiMAX extends
the range and speed of existing wireless internet technologies by
covering an entire geographic area, rather than limited "hot-spots". In
other words, customers of iCON internet will be able to access our
network wherever they are in our coverage areas, very similar to
cellular telephone coverage. The major advantage of WiMAX over other
"wired" technologies is that installation and activation is immediate,
and does not require any "last-mile" connection.
iCON will offer high-speed Wireless broadband internet, Virtual Private
Network (VPN) and Voice over IP (VoIP) services to consumer, corporate
and governmental customers in Armenia at very competitive prices. "Our
corporate philosophy is to leverage global standards of technical
performance, customer service and competitive pricing to becoming
the connecting force between Armenians of all ages and the global
community," stated Adam Kablanian. "We are excited to participate
in the investment required to build the future competitiveness of
the Republic of Armenia by providing fast, reliable and affordable
internet service."
iCON Communications also announced today that it has secured a
multi-million dollar investment by a multinational holding company
specializing in telecommunication investments. As a result of this
investment, iCON is able to significantly accelerate the rollout of
its WiMAX network in Yerevan and the rest of the country, and will
benefit from the investor's broad experience in building and managing
similar operations around the world.
iCON Communications is a premier Broadband Internet Service Provider
in Armenia, focusing on the highest technical performance and customer
service. iCON aims to unleash the creative and economic potential
fueled by the recent rise in living standards and growing consumer
confidence in Armenia. Established in late 2007, iCON is on track with
an aggressive timeline to launch its services and aims at providing
high-quality internet, data and VoIP services, covering all major
cities, tourist locations and large enterprise locations in Armenia
by the end of 2009, with service available in Yerevan by January 2009.
