By Beverly Maniago, TMCnet Contributing Editor

SOMA Networks, Inc. is joining more than 30 other companies in the second public WiMAX Forum in Malaga, Spain. Also known as Mobile WiMAX PlugFest, the WiMAX forum aims to accelerate the launch of broadband wireless products into the market by testing the interoperability of different IEEE systems, including the SOMA FlexMax System.



 
The forum is the next step in obtaining Mobile WiMAX Certification for SOMA Networks.
