Wireless broadband equipment vendor, Alvarion Ltd., announced this week that its BreezeMAX wireless system has been selected for a WiMAX deployment by one of Russia’s seven interregional carriers, CenterTelecom.

The BreezeMAX system is to be deployed in and around Moscow, Tambov, Tula, and Vladimir, as part of Russia’s federal program for connecting hundreds of schools to the internet via WiMAX networks.

“The WiMAX network created within the national project presents a basis for expansion of WiMAX networks in other regions in the future,” commented CenterTelecom CTO, Vadim Kondratov. “This will allow CenterTelecom to enlarge the number of provided services and offer equal services to all citizens of the Center of Russia, thus raising the quality of life in the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation.”

The predominantly state-owned CenterTelecom is the largest telecommunications carriers in the Central Federal District, where more than 20% of Russia’s population lives.
