Research Report

Brazil, a key market and at the forefront of technology in Latin America, lacks any mobile WiMAX deployments, and its end users can only access WiMAX as a fixed Internet service.

Examples from both Brazilian and Mexican markets are cited, as well as details of the point of view held by a conglomerate of Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service (MMDS) service providers called Neotec, and discussion of how it is trying to find a solution and migrate towards WiMAX.
