COLUMBIA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TECORE® Wireless Systems, a leading provider
of 3G and next-generation wireless networks, announced today that it has

comprehensive GSM services with enhanced roaming capabilities.
“Cordova is an important tourist and commercial port which brings a large
number of cargo, cruise and leisure ships, fishing vessels and other traffic
to the area. Our upgrade to TECORE’s GSM system has enhanced our roaming
capabilities which allow us to serve these additional customers and
visitors,” said Paul Kelly, General Manger of Cordova Wireless. “TECORE’s GSM
platform not only provides all of the functionality that we currently need,
but it is designed to easily expand and grow with us as our network and

TECORE’s FarSite™ product to our network as we have identified several
coastal sites that can benefit from the extended range capability it offers."

operators. This highlights again that our integrated core and radio access
