Many utility organizations have embraced wireless mobile communications to extend enterprise
applications to their "field forces" and are realizing concrete Return-On-Investment (ROI) through
productivity increases and improved customer satisfaction. Benefits of broadband mobile access include: similar or lower prices compared to current 3G services,
improved user experience and productivity, extension of mobile access to enterprise desktop applications
in addition to standard field-centric applications, and significant reduction in costs needed to support the
mobile infrastructure through elimination of middleware, application customization, and intensive IT
support.
This paper provides:
a comparison of past, current, and future wireless technologies, speeds, and user costs;
current mobile broadband technology examples with real-world deployments;
a case history of a broadband mobile wireless pilot by a leading U.S. utility;
industry predictions for the growth of broadband mobile communications; and,
steps to take to plan, justify, and deploy megabit broadband mobile communications for your organization. Includes tables.
