News College of DuPage Chooses 5G Wireless for Campus-Wide Deployment – Largest Single Campus Community College in U.S. Opts for 5G Solution Marina del Rey, CA – September 19, 2005 – 5G Wireless Solutions, Inc., an emerging leader in the wireless broadband industry and a wholly-owned portfolio company of 5G Wireless Communications, Inc. (OTCBB: FGWC), a business development company, announced today that the College of DuPage (http://www.cod.edu/) in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, has selected the 5G Wireless solution for broadband wireless coverage throughout the campus. Located 35 miles west of Chicago, the College of DuPage has become the largest single-campus community college in the United States, serving about 34,000 students. With half of all Illinois college students attending community colleges, DuPage enrolls roughly 1 out of 4 high school graduates from its district. 5G Wireless Solutions was asked to primarily focus on the college’s indoor wireless challenges given the preponderance of multi-story academic buildings throughout its 273 acres and heavy volume user applications. The company responded with an efficient array of indoor base stations to provide ubiquitous coverage throughout a wide range of old and new structures. Utilizing its NLOS (Non-Line-of-Sight) Wi-Fi technology, these indoor base stations provide superior area coverage over long horizontal distances while penetrating up to three vertical floors. This three-dimensional coverage advantage provides a competitive edge over other wireless indoor access points. “We’re able to leverage the same technological advantages employed in our long-range, outdoor applications to those environments requiring elaborate indoor installations,”, stated Frank Simonelli, 5G’s Vice President of Marketing. “Our ‘less is more’ value proposition applies both inside and out.” As an example, the company expects to cover one 378,000 sq. ft. three-story building, with nearly 300 rooms, by employing only four strategically placed indoor base stations. A competitive equipment scenario would have required about 50 or more access points to do the same job. The 5G deployment results in savings not only in front-end capital equipment costs, but also in terms of ongoing operational expenses and the value of staff time in administering an excess volume of individual access points.
