Skycasters PTMP Provides Opportunities for Local Businesses
Stimulate your local economy.
Our Point-to-Multipoint solutions for communities include a free community news Web site, with free unlimited access for all
citizens. The server for this Web site is located in your community distribution hub. We recommend that you take advantage of
this free Web site to post news items of local interest, local weather reports, sports reports, etc. You may want to solicit
the editor of your local newspaper to manage the site. Bits and bytes are far cheaper than paper and ink, and community members
can access the site for free – even if they don’t sign up for Internet access.
Other businesses can take advantage of your community wide distribution network, too. Consider letting your local phone company run a VoIP PBX in your community hub. By using the WiMAX infrastructure, they can provide VoIP service anywhere in the footprint. The VoIP phone would be portable, too – move across town, and you take your phone and your number with you.
Your local video rental store may get a new lease on life as well. Consider allowing them to co-locate a Video on Demand server in the community hub. Members of the online video store would be able to download movies on demand, directly through the WiMAX infrastructure. No Internet access, no Internet access charges.
Citizens can access the “local” video store or VoIP phone service even if they don’t purchase Internet access from Skycasters.
