ICT Develops WiFi/WiMAX Voice and Data Platform

By Anuradha Shukla, TMCnet Contributing Editor

Innovative Communications Technologies has developed an integrated voice and data platform that connects any broadband mobile devices or personal computers at no per minute charges.

Code named the "Cannes Project," this ICT Product Development Group's project will allow users to send voice and data from any broadband device anywhere in the world. This can be done without using cellular plan minutes and does not require a cellular carrier wherever Wi-Fi/WiMAX is present. The company informs that connection to non-broadband mobile devices and landlines are projected to be at a 60 percent reduced cost over present mobile, VoIP and telecom carriers.




Innovative Communications Technologies have plans to roll out different non-browser based applications to support Nokia (News - Alert), Samsung, Motorola, T-Mobile and other brand name broadband devices in phases. This will be done according to their market share and popularity. ICT's broadband product will utilize a phased development plan to connect the 424 million industry predicted broadband wireless devices to be sold over the next 36 months. This includes the over 246 million Skype (News - Alert) users and the millions of present broadband VoIP customers throughout the world.

According to Joel Edwards, director of Business Development with Innovative Communications Technologies, securing 1 percent of the broadband device market alone would mean a minimum $3.1M revenue stream and nearly a $2M profit for ICT in year 1.

Edwards said in a statement that leveraging ICT's 18 year success with Private Telecommunications Networks, cellular and multi-media delivery, this calling platform has every potential to become the most significant business model and revenue stream in the history of the company.

“Eliminating per minute charges and taking out the middle man to benefit the consumer is nothing new to ICT. The market is occurring right now for this product's anticipated unique voice and data advancements making this a huge success for the consumer and the industry,” he added.

Innovative Communications Technologies is a communications specific technology development company and, since 1989, has been a pioneer in the development and positioning of private telecommunications networks for businesses.
