MobileAccess Networks, a leading global provider of multi-service in-building wireless solutions for operators and enterprises, today launched its Middle Eastern operations with a local office presence in Dubai. Building on its success in other markets, the company has initiated a global expansion strategy into high-growth markets to address the increasing demand for accessible and reliable indoor connectivity for wireless services and applications.

With its innovative Universal Wireless Network solution, MobileAccess is a leading pioneer of indoor wireless solutions. This modular, multi-service wireless platform not only provides simultaneous coverage for mobile services such as GSM, DCS-1800, and UMTS, but also was the first indoor coverage solution to offer integrated support for Wireless LAN (WLAN) and, more recently, for Mobile WiMAX services. Moreover, MobileAccess networking solutions are inherently broadband, allowing clients to easily and quickly accommodate both current and future wireless requirements without costly overlay networks.

As part of its global expansion program, MobileAccess has commenced intensified marketing initiatives in the Middle East to cater to the rapid adoption of wireless technologies and applications in the region. The UAE has been a particularly strong market as the country has been ranked number one in the Arab World in the 2006/2007 World Economic Forum/INSEAD Global Information Technology Report's Network Readiness Index, according to the latest Madar Research study.

"MobileAccess offers an innovative universal platform that connects the people and the applications that power business enterprises. We provide wireless connectivity that empowers all components of any business facility, a very critical feature particularly among hospitals, business centres, office buildings, public venues and other large-scale facilities wherein fast and easy access to resources located in different areas is a necessity," said Cathy Zatloukal, president and CEO of MobileAccess.

"With our modular multi-service platform, MobileAccess maximises client investments as our solutions support all wireless services simultaneously over one intelligent infrastructure, facilitating cellular voice and data services from multiple operators, WLAN, Mobile WiMAX, building automation, and many other wireless services and applications. Without a doubt, wireless indoor connectivity is rapidly becoming an expected amenity within business facilities, and it is our mission to enable clients in the Middle East to prepare sufficiently for this transition," added Zatloukal.

MobileAccess features the Universal Wireless Network, which allows enterprises to enjoy the highest levels of flexibility, scalability and performance through comprehensive wireless indoor connectivity regardless of the client's choice of carrier, location or selected technology. Moreover, MobileAccess solutions can easily accommodate new wireless technologies, optimising the client's expansion initiatives, facilitating migration from GSM to UMTS, Mobile WiMAX, LTE and WLAN.

"With its rich features, the MobileAccess Universal Wireless Network has been deployed in some of the world's largest facilities and most prominent public venues. We likewise expect a strong response from the region's high-growth markets such as UAE and the rest of the Middle East. From planning, designing, deployment, commissioning and maintaining in-building wireless solutions, MobileAccess extends a full range of services that will help enterprises maintain their competitive advantage," said Mario Maas, director of international business development for MobileAccess.
