HACKENSACK, NJ (January 8, 2002) – Wave2Wave Communications announced today the deployment of its high-speed fixed wireless Internet services in Floral Park, Long Island. While the Company already has a presence in the New York area, this is the first base station deployed in Long Island. The Company will add additional locations in Long Island and the New York area in the upcoming weeks and months.
"We continue to expand our presence in the New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania markets. Our focus is to fill in as many areas as possible in these areas and expand our reach into surrounding states." said Steven Asman, President and CEO of Wave2Wave Communications. "Having a contiguous footprint allows us to be cost effective and provide our customers with the best and more efficient services".
In order to provide service within a market, the Company installs a "base station" (an antenna on either a tower or rooftop) that can provide service up to a 10-mile radius from that site. The subscriber can receive service with either a "patch" antenna that is installed on the subscriber’s window or from an antenna installed on the rooftop of their premises. Once a customer is verified to be within range of a base station’s signal, the Company provides them with service within days of receiving an order.
