Redline Communications and IRAQTEL have announced that Redline will deploy the first WiMAX network in Iraq using Redline’s WiMAX Forum Certified RedMAX products. Vision Valley, a specialist in systems integration, network design and implementation, will provide its regional expertise to ensure the network is effectively established. IRAQTEL will deliver advanced voice and broadband services to thousands of businesses and residents throughout its region via the Redline network.

IRAQTEL will begin its RedMAX deployment in Basrah, and will expand its WiMAX network to include additional regions across Iraq. The Redline solution will enable IRAQTEL to quickly and cost-effectively establish broadband wireless network to deliver the voice and broadband services its enterprise and government customers need and extend its network to reach more businesses, residents and municipal organizations.

“IRAQTEL has been searching for a WIMAX solution that would provide a cost-effective alternative to VSAT networks, which have been the only available solution for establishing broadband connections because of the lack of copper line infrastructure,” said Sheikh Fawzi Al Lami, chairman of IRAQTEL. “We chose Redline’s RedMAX products to establish a carrier-class telecommunications backbone capable of supporting a scalable, high-performance network.”
