news & events with Nethercomm May 05, 2005 NETHERCOMM PIONEERS BREAKTHROUGH WIRELESS LAST-MILE TECHNOLOGY TO DELIVER TELEVISION, PHONE AND INTERNET SERVICES THROUGH NATURAL GAS PIPELINES P ROVIDING LIMITLESS BANDWIDTH SAN DIEGO, CA-May 3, 2005 Nethercomm Corporation, the leading innovator of subterranean broadband communications, announces the development of Broadband-in-Gas (BiG) Technology. This technology is designed to effect ively multiply the current available bandwidth of cable television and a ll other broadband systems with data capacities exceeding ten gigabits. Broadband-in-Gas delivers unmatched levels of connectivity by making use of Ultra Wideband technology to wirelessly broadcast information in a w ay that is both safe and reliable by using the private spectrum isolated within natural gas pipelines. Nethercomms technology requires no modification to existing natural gas distribution infrastructures and can carry enormous amounts of data by s imply making use of the entire spectrum buried within the existing natur al gas pipelines. The technology delivers connectivity over the last mil e of broadband networks without interference or degradation of other wir eless transmissions. By not consuming or sharing costly spectrum, and no t requiring installation of last mile cable or fiber, Nethercomm is prep ared to make broadband substantially more affordable while increasing en d-user bandwidth to unprecedented levels. "Our Broadband-in-Gas technology represents a completely new era of low c ost access to broadband services and a completely new alternative to cab le video, phone and data services," states Ann Nunally, President and CO O of the San Diego-based Nethercomm Corporation. She went on to say, "We believe we are the only company with an Intellectual Property portfolio which addresses wireless broadband communication in natural gas pipelin es and have been extremely tight-lipped about this innovation until our Patent Portfolio foundation was completely in place. Nethercomm is currently developing natural gas, broadband and consumer el ectronics partnerships to validate and certify its revolutionary technol ogy for use in existing natural gas pipelines. Simply stated, Nethercomm introduces signals into the gas lines using inexpensive equipment locat ed at existing neighborhood network hubs and extracts data at the custom er or business premises with end user-installed equipment which can oper ate seamlessly with most existing and deployed digital set-top boxes. Broadband-in-Gas has the potential to revolutionize the natural gas dist ribution and gas transmission industries, stated Joe Posewick, Presiden t of EN Engineering a key designer of natural gas infrastructures. He we nt on to say These utilities could both increase profit and decrease co st to their customers with very little investment Nethercomms Broadband-in-Gas provides an unmatched opportunity for natur al gas utility operators and cable/broadband industry leaders to accommo date new technologies, such as High Definition Television, which have be en extremely difficult to fulfill due to the significantly higher bandwi dth requirements. Nethercomm is a private Delaware Corporation, developing innovative and p roprietary communication technologies for the fast-growing broadband and wireless markets. The companys portfolio of patents encompasses what i s believed to be fundamental subterranean broadband communication and in cludes additional patents pending to protect its technology and architec ture.
