Are you ready to move on with the speed of thought in the 21st century?
More business owners and company decision-makers are searching for new and fast ways to bring information directly to their employees' fingertips which allows them to react to customer demands and sales trends promptly.
The Wireless Internet, Inc. (TWIN) does just that. TWIN is in its third year of providing fast access connectivity and Internet to businesses and maquilas in the Rio Grande Valley.
With its state-of-the-art technology, TWIN is the only company in the Valley that specializes in providing low cost, fast network connections to local businesses with secure digital microwave links and Internet information systems. Its service is Y2K compatible and ready to serve the customer's information infrastructure needs.
This service is able to assist maquiladoras by transferring files at a high speed, as well as the new integrated service for voice over IP technology through its system. Maquilas save money on internet and phone services.
Since this service does not require any tel-co line, it has more boundaries and is much faster to deploy. With no local phone charges, it reduces installation and monthly cost by as much as 90 percent.
In addition, you can make free phone calls over TWIN's system. Making the phone calls over the net requires higher bandwidth. TWIN's high speed connection (1.5 mega bits per second) makes phone calls over the net a breeze. If a company spends thousands of hours per month on overseas calls or faxes, that can easily convert into thousands of dollars in savings per month.
In the United States, you do not need to purchase any equipment for the service. TWIN provides the transceiver and antenna for high speed Internet connectivity as part of the service.
TWIN's towers extend from Mission to Mercedes and north Reynosa. By the end of 1999, towers will be installed in Harlingen, Brownsville and Matamoros.
