Tokyo, March 10, 2010 - NEC Corporation (NEC) announced today that UQ Communications Co., Ltd. (President: Takashi Tanaka; HQ: Tokyo, Japan) has expanded its WiMAX service with NEC's base stations.
UQ Communications has revised its WiMAX base station installation plan for the 2009 fiscal year from 4,000 to more than 6,000 base stations by the end of March 2010.
