Nortel Networks, the American manufacturer, announced yesterday preferred to place his money and his time on networks LTE rather than Wimax.
During a conference with investors, Telco has justified his preference to LTE (long-term evolution), which has yet to be standardized, because mobile operators are more likely to argue that the Wimax.
Of the three major U.S. carriers alone Sprint Nextel supports Wimax, while Verizon Wireless and AT & T opted for LTE.
Sprint Nextel was disappointed Nortel last May by the formation of a gang Wimax which left all alone in the dark. The gang, composed of Comcast, Google, Bright House Networks, the investor Trilogy Equity Partners and of course Intel has managed to collect 14.55 billion dollars for the formation of a Telco is supposed to cover everything the territory of the USA on Wimax.
Nortel now form his own band with Israeli Alvarion to further develop LTE. Technology should be made available in 2010 after testing.
Nortel currently controls one third of market access products wireless technology CDMA (code division multiple access).
