FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Aug. 2, 2005/Satnews Daily/ — GlobeTel Wireless, a division of GlobeTel Communications Corp., has been awarded a contract to install wireless networks in three German cities.
The contract will provide high-speed wireless networks for internet connectivity starting with the town of Kaiserslautern, and continuing with nearby communities, according to GlobeTel Communications. Kaiserslautern is a city of 100,000 people, located 100 miles South West of Frankfurt. Construction of the project is to begin in August 2005.
GlobeTel Wireless will install these first Wireless Networks in Germany as part of the roll out plan to deploy wireless communication networks to non-DSL communities, in identified geographic markets.
Leigh Coleman, co-president of GlobeTel Wireless, said using radio technology that the company has developed for its Stratellites, they will be able to deliver wireless product and thus has created an entirely new business unit for us. “We are inundated with opportunities for this technology and see this first contract as just the tip of the iceberg for this new business unit,” he said.
He added several more networks are expected to be installed over the coming months as part of the plan to roll out networks to approximately 140 non DSL Cities in Germany. Expansion plans call for development in other countries in Europe, Africa, Russia, and other geographic markets.
Further network testing is being carried out in other cities, like Russelsheim where advanced wireless networks including WIFI Phones and other mobile devices are currently being tested.
A Stratellite is a high-altitude airship that, when in place in the stratosphere (approximately 65,000 feet), will provide a stationary platform for transmitting various types of wireless communications services currently transmitted from cell towers and satellites. It is not a balloon or a blimp, but a high-altitude airship with a rigid structure.
