Roam seamlessly between WiMAX and Wi-Fi network

Green Packet Berhad, developer of next-generation mobile broadband and networking solutions and GCT Semiconductor, a supplier of mobile WiMAX solutions to the global market, have announced collaboration to bring the world’s first intelligent connection management solution. This solution is expected to provide connectivity and handover between WiMAX and Wi-Fi.

Malaysia’s first and largest WiMAX operator, Packet One Networks Sdn Bhd, has already been signed by Green Packet, which has its headquarters in Kuala Lumpur. Green Packet will look to roll out this new and innovative technology in Malaysia.

GCT’s GDM7215 single-chip WiMAX plus Wi-Fi integrated circuit offers benefits such as a physically smaller solution, lower power consumption and reduced bill-of-materials. Users can roam seamlessly between WiMAX and WiFi networks and create a robust and highly-desirable wireless broadband experience.
