EUGENE, Ore. & SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Feeney Wireless, a leading Sprint business solutions provider, and The MediaTile
Company, a world leading provider of cellular digital signage and SaaS
solutions, today announced that they have successfully built and are
demonstrating the first 3G-to-4G network-ready, all-in-one digital signage
solution to CEO's and CIO's at Sprint sponsored events in major metropolitan
areas. The system utilizes Sprint's 3G/4G WiMAX technology to deliver a more
robust cellular digital signage solution that customers can deploy, while being
Sprint 4G-ready as WiMAX locations "light-up" across the United States.
Initially available from Feeney Wireless, the fully integrated 3G-to-4G WiMAX
Digital Signage solution integrates Sprint's 3G/4G WiMAX technology and services
with MediaTile's leading cellular digital signage platform, and is remotely
controlled through the MediaCast SaaS-based content delivery and management
system.
"We're very excited to showcase Sprint's latest WiMAX data services integrated
with the MediaTile platform," said Bob Ralston, CEO of Feeney Wireless. "With
this solution we can extend the advantages that 3G cellular broadband technology
offers, and now incorporate rich media and more high-definition content by
taking advantage of the superior price-performance that 4G/WiMAX delivers."
WiMAX (an acronym for "Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access") is
wireless broadband access technology from Sprint that provides comparable
network performance as Wi-Fi networks, but without the typical coverage
limitations. WiMAX, extends the range of typical Wi-Fi implementations to cover
broad metropolitan areas, and outperforms 3G cellular broadband by an average of
five times on download speeds.
"By adding 4G networking into the mix of our leading 3G cellular digital signage
solutions, we are able to provide a whole new level of experiential and
contextual-based content to our customers," said MediaTile CEO, Simon Wilson.
"With more and more customers deploying 3G networks, providing a built-in
roadmap to the future adds tremendous business value to a platform that our
customers report delivers ROI much faster than competitive platforms."
