There are about 8-10 million rural customers located in the unserved and under-served internet target markets in the continental United States. These consumers are unable to access conventional broadband such as DSL and Cable broadband.

A T1 or Fractional T1 can also be a potential solution for some rural customers, however, the cost can be prohibitive for consumer usage. The next best choice is satellite internet like Wildblue and HughesNet, but those options require a good satellite angle and often encounter latency (lag time) issues and slow connection speeds.

Rural customers use EVDO in the following ways:

Mobile Applications - It provides services on buses, trains, RVs, campers, trucks and other mobile based units.

Portable Uses - It is a great solution for an emergency response environment, trade show, convention center and a mobile working environment.

Redundant Solution - The product can also be used to provide backup for cable/DSL/T1 as well as broadband satellite and dial-up.
