WOBURN, Massachusetts and MARKHAM, Ontario, August 20 /PRNewswire/ --
- RedMAX Solutions Will Form the Foundation of a Feature-Rich Network
Unmatched in Quality of Service
Pipeline Wireless, Boston's leading wireless broadband provider, and
Redline Communications Inc. ("Redline") (TSX and AIM:RDL), a leading provider
of standards-based WiMAX and broadband wireless infrastructure products,
today announced that Pipeline Wireless has chosen Redline's RedMAX(TM)
products to support its first WiMAX network.
Pipeline Wireless is deploying Redline's RedMAX products for its high
capacity WiMAX network in downtown Boston and plans to launch its WiMAX
services in the fall. Pipeline Wireless is the first company in Boston,
Massachusetts to install Redline's technology and deliver true WiMAX
services.
"We are excited to expand our relationship with Redline as we deploy our
first of many WiMAX base stations," said Michael Daly, President and CEO,
Pipeline Wireless. "Because we can monitor and manage our existing and new
Redline equipment from a single management platform, we will incur
significantly lower operational costs for managing and provisioning our
customers' services," added Daly.
"By choosing RedMAX, Pipeline Wireless can quickly deploy a WiMAX network
in downtown Boston that will enable its customers to enjoy new levels of
services," said Kevin Suitor, Vice President of Marketing and Business
Development, Redline Communications. "Pipeline Wireless can incrementally
expand its network as it grows and realize a return on investment at each
phase of deployment."
Pipeline chose Redline's carrier-class RedMAX(TM) AN-100U Base Station
for its unmatched support of voice, video and prioritized data traffic, which
enables long-range, high-capacity wireless broadband networks.
Redline is a WiMAX industry leader with over 166 deployments worldwide.
Redline was the first equipment vendor to have its products WiMAX Forum
Certified as well as FCC Certified for the 3.65 GHz spectrum in the United
States. Redline's conformance to the WiMAX standards for performance and
interoperability, as well as its high level of support, was of enormous
importance to Pipeline Wireless in its decision to choose Redline's
equipment.
Redline's RedMAX(TM) Family
Redline's RedMAX(TM) family of WiMAX solutions includes the world's first
complete system to receive the WiMAX Forum Certified(TM) mark for conformance

carrier-class RedMAX(TM) Base Station (AN-100U) supports voice, video, and
prioritized data traffic, enabling long-range, high-capacity wireless
broadband networks. Redline's WiMAX products also include the RedMAX(TM)
Indoor Subscriber Unit (SU-I) and Outdoor Subscriber Unit (SU-O) designed for
enterprise and residential services. The RedMAX(TM) Management Suite enables
operators to monitor and control the network, ensuring high service
availability. Redline is maintaining its WiMAX leadership with the expansion
of its RedMAX(TM) family to include products for additional frequency bands,
applications and standards.
RedMAX 4C(TM) Mobile WiMAX
The RedMAX 4C(TM), which is based on the WiMAX industry's 802.16e-2005
standards for mobile WiMAX, supports a wide range of fixed, portable and
