RoamAD (News - Alert), provider of the converged wireless networks, has entered into a partnership agreement with Adino Telecom, one of India's leading wireless systems integrators. Under the agreement, Adino Telecom will supply and integrate RoamAD networks for Internet services providers, carriers, universities and government agencies on the Indian subcontinent.

"There is a rapidly-emerging, tech-savvy segment of the population that is demanding improved access to broadband,” said Martyn Levy, CEO of RoamAD, in a press release. “This growing segment is increasingly armed with the latest laptops and Wi-Fi enabled cell phones and gadgets. Metro Wi-Fi, deployed in the right places, is the fastest way to deliver easily-accessible, cost-effective, wireless broadband to the urban population."

The deal follows successful pilots of RoamAD metro Wi-Fi and highway Wi-Fi networks in the Indian cities of Pune and Bangalore. RoamAD provides next-generation converged wireless networks for the city-wide Wi-Fi, highway Wi-Fi and campus markets.

"Mobility performance on the highway Wi-Fi network was seamless and exceeded our expectations," said S. Ramchandra, COO of Adino Telecom. "We are already seeing growing demand in India for metro Wi-Fi and we look forward to bringing RoamAD's next generation wireless networks to the Indian market."

Adino Telecom is a joint venture between Onida Group, a leading name in consumer electronics in India, and Enkay Technologies (India) Pvt. Limited, an integrated communication solutions provider.
