db3 Broadband has formed a partnership with two leaders in this field to provide this wireless infrastructure to Lake County, IL. Xtratyme Technologies, Inc. is one of the largest WISPs in the country and has been in wireless Internet provisioning since the industry started to exist just 4 years ago. db3’s infrastructure technology incorporates the Motorola’s Canopy product, which is one of the more robust, simple to install and cost effective equipment packages available.

Broadband Service FTTP is a promising technology that could provide a foundation for next-generation broadband networks, capable of providing nearly limitless voice, video and data bandwidth for consumers and small businesses. The technology is capable of supporting a number of potential future applications, such as photo sharing, PC backup and telecommuting, along with video conferencing, premises surveillance and enhanced video services, which could be delivered on demand and in high-definition.
