Irene Chen, Taipei; Steve Shen, DigiTimes.com [Monday 26 February 2007]

Gemtek Technology and Accton Wireless Broadband (AWB) are likely to lead Taiwan-based network-equipment makers for the production of mobile WiMAX products, with Alpha Networks and CyberTAN Technology expected to follow suit, according to market sources.

Gemtek will begin volume shipments of its mobile WiMAX devices in the second quarter of 2007, which will help push its second-quarter revenues to a relatively high level, said company managing director Kevin Yang.

AWB, a joint venture between Taiwan-based Accton Technology and Tel Aviv-based Alvarion, is to begin small-volume production of mobile WiMAX CPE (consumer premise equipment) products in the second quarter 2007 before commencing volume production in the third quarter, indicated market sources.

CyberTAN has begun the development of mobile WiMAX products, including devices that will meet with IEEE 802.16j standards, said company chairman Gwong-yih Lee. However, Lee declined to specify the company's production timetable for the mobile WiMAX products.
