Amsterdam today (17 June) saw the launch by Worldmax of a 'light' version of Europe's first city-wide commercial wireless broadband network. Worldmax is the owner of the national, exclusive 3.5Ghz license for the Dutch market.
The WiMAX 802.16e network, called Aerea, will enable early customers the ability to access basic internet services, including games and streamed videos, within the Amsterdam city ring. The full roll-out of the network across the city is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
