Time Warner Cable Business Class Launches 4G Wireless Data Service for Mobile Professionals
Texas First Region to Offer High-Speed Business Class Mobile Services
DALLAS, April 28 -- Time Warner Cable Business Class, the B2B arm of Time Warner Cable (NYSE:TWC), today announced the launch of Business Class Mobile, its 4G-based high-speed wireless data service. In the first phase of the rollout, Business Class Mobile will be available in Texas, with additional markets to be added throughout 2010.
Where as Time Warner Cable's Business Class Internet Access products are used in the office environment, Business Class Mobile enhances a business's productivity by enabling its employees to receive high-speed Internet access when they are outside of the office. Business Class Mobile allows employees who are out of the office to download large files, as well as access intranet sites, customer relationship management tools, and other company-related information. The service also eliminates the added expense and service limitations of pay-for-use, limited range Wi-Fi access in airports, hotels and other locations.
Business Class Mobile delivers both high-speed wireless download speeds of up to 6 Mbps when inside the Time Warner Cable 4G service area and the convenience of having access to the coverage of a national 3G network when traveling outside a 4G market. Time Warner Cable 4G enabled markets include Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi and Wichita Falls TX; Charlotte, Raleigh and Greensboro, NC; and Honolulu and Maui, HI. Business Class Mobile customers will also have access to the 4G network in additional markets outside the Time Warner Cable footprint including Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Houston, Las Vegas, Philadelphia and Seattle. In 2010, 4G network coverage is expected to expand to additional cities including New York, Boston, Washington, D.C., San Francisco Bay Area, Kansas City, Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Los Angeles.
"With Business Class Mobile, our customers' employees will be more productive by enabling them to take the office with them when they are on the go," said John Owen, president of Time Warner Cable's Business Class operation in Texas. "This wireless solution further broadens our portfolio of products and services for the commercial segment."
The launch of Business Class Mobile is a key aspect of the company's "You First. The Technology Follows" strategy, a customer-centric approach to providing customized and reliable business communications tools and localized customer service.
