WiMAX operates by LoS (line of sight) radio frequency technology and delivers fiber optic performance without the high costs of fiber installation and fiber services. It gives businesses the ability to achieve operational efficiency and redundancy through dedicated wireless pathways. Fiber installation may take 3-4 months for installation, whereas comparable speeds may be installed in less than a week by using WiMAX.
Ben Koeneker, CEO of locally owned STLWIMAX explains “We are a wholesale internet provider offering guaranteed and dedicated bandwidth for your upload and download pathways. Unless you are buying fiber, or an equivalent WiMAX service, most other service types are “best effort” products which do not guarantee performance. Not only do we provide a dedicated connection, but we can customize it depending on your upload and download needs”.
