Airband Communications, a fixed-wireless company for businesses in the United States, announced that a growing number of Austin businesses are adopting its scalable fixed-wireless voice and data services.
Local clients include InterContinental Stephen F Austin Hotel, a luxury hotel located in downtown Austin. The hotel uses Airband to provide high-speed wireless data which InterContinental uses to provide Internet access in all guestrooms and throughout the hotel s lobby and common areas.

Airband sets itself apart by delivering dependable and easy-to- manage wireless Internet access service, which in turn allows me to offer superior services to my guests, said Ralph Carnal, IT manager for InterContinental Stephen F Austin Hotel. Plus, I can easily call Airband and increase my bandwidth needs should I need to accommodate additional guests for meetings and conferences.

A local technology company, Lieberman Software, relies on Airband as the primary Internet connection for its mission-critical applications. The company leverages Airband s 10 Mbps data service for real-time collaboration with desktop sharing and audio channels, video conferencing with customers and web hosting. Lieberman Software develops advanced systems management solutions for administering the Windows enterprise.

We chose Airband because they offered the right amount of bandwidth we needed, and their service level agreement had a 100- percent uptime guarantee and terms that were far better than their competitors, said Philip Lieberman, president for Lieberman Software. Plus, Airband had our service up and running very quickly rather than waiting the several months for a fiber buildout.

Austin is home to a number of progressive, high-tech companies that regularly demand cutting-edge high-bandwidth solutions, said Layne Levine, president of sales and marketing for Airband. We are pleased to provide local companies with an affordable and extremely scalable business-class service for last-mile access and point-to- point connectivity.
