The broadband mobile communications service is initially available in ten cities and two ski resorts across the country.

Max Telecom provides its subscribers with mobile internet access, voice services and virtual private network services over WiMAX. The company also launched mobile television over WiMAX. The service uses Cisco’s customer premises equipment, WiMAX base stations and the Cisco Element Management System platform. Cisco also provides the access and aggregation network, connecting the base stations to the core network of Max Telecom.
