Corridor Communications Corp. Launches Its Wireless Broadband Service Throughout
Its Mesa, Arizona Cable TV Franchise and Beyond 10/20/2004 1:24:00 PM
MESA, Ariz., Oct 20, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Corridor Communications Corp. (CORR) begins to offer Wireless Broadband service within and beyond its franchise territory in Mesa, Arizona. The area covers all of the 15000 homes in the franchise plus another 75000 homes once fully deployed. Corridor through Eagle West has entered a strategic marketing and deployment arrangement with Alpha Communications of Arizona. Alpha will immediately begin to jointly market the service to all the customers belonging to Eagle West.
Corridor now can provide broadband service via cable and wireless dual technology in the Mesa expanded market. WI-FI and high-speed Internet services are being deployed to all the Eagle West franchises and the company expects to have several additional markets operational in the next 30 days.
J. Michael Heil Chief Executive Officer of the Company stated, "Both companies have dedicated their efforts to this project and Alpha has been locating and erecting tower locations in order to provide service not only to the Eagle West customers but to those who have limited service options in nearby areas. Now that the infrastructure for Mesa is in place we will be aggressively marketing to our current customer base. Our strategy when we acquired Eagle West was to overlay wireless broadband, and Mesa being one of our most significant franchises is now up and running. We will continue to enhance our services in Mesa and at the same time we have already begun the engineering required to roll out wireless in additional markets with Eagle West."
