Terremark Worldwide, Inc. announced it was selected to provide core infrastructure solutions to WiMAX, a 4G network solution which delivers extended wireless broadband Internet beyond Wi-Fi. With wireless high-speed broadband connectivity, WiMAX-enabled laptops and mobile devices provide the freedom to connect to the Internet as easily as with a cell phone service.

Laying the foundation for broad and cost-effective deployment of WiMAX technologies, companies including Intel® are helping to deliver unprecedented mobility for Internet-connected devices. With speeds similar to DSL or cable and faster than using cell phone service to connect, WiMAX will allow access to data-intensive applications, including streaming media on the Internet, live video conferencing, mobile TV and more.

“The selection of the NAP of the Americas for the back-end infrastructure of WiMAX further validates our facility as one of the most important Internet exchanges in the world,” said Manuel D. Medina, Terremark’s Chairman and CEO. “We are excited to help revolutionize the way people access content on the Internet.”
