FierceBroadbandWireless editors Lynnette Luna and Sue Marek evaluated hundreds of organizations, and found Beceem to be one of the “fiercest,”
FierceBroadbandWireless brings the latest broadband wireless news on WiFi, WiMAX, muni WiFi and other pertinent broadband wireless topics and technologies to more than 48,000 wireless industry insiders. Earlier this month, the publication underwent a rebranding; it was formerly known as FierceWiFi.
“Beceem has smartly positioned itself early in the mobile WiMAX space and is already reaping the benefits. Major device manufacturers Motorola and Samsung--two main suppliers for Sprint Nextel's WiMAX rollout that want to develop their own chipsets--have forged agreements with Beceem,” said Lynnette Luna, Editor of FierceBroadbandWireless.
Beceem Communications is a leading provider of chipsets for Mobile WiMAX technology and has been paving the way for many companies to succeed in the mobile broadband market. It has made significant strides in the industry with its terminal chipsets for both Wave 1 and Wave 2.
