ADVANTAGES VS DISADVANTAGE OF WIMAX

Since, WIMAX is the new tecnology that just introduced to Thailand. So, there are both advantages and disadvantages of WIMAX that still be not improved.

Let's start with Advantages first;

1. WIMAX can send the signal through the wider area.(30 miles or 48 kilometers) eg: The signal can be sent to rural

2. WIMAX has highspeed in term of sending the data that why it can send to very far area.

3. WIMAX is more secure than the old system by providing the monitoring and controling system in order to check the quality

4. Support many working functions such as; picture, sounds and etc.

5. WIMAX can increase the internet users because of the wider area.

6. For the wider area that WIMAX provide, it allowed the rural people to have a chance to learn with new technology

7. There are no problem in term of geography sending signal because the signal has high frequency.

8. Decrease the cost of installing the LAN cable because WIMAX use the signal to send the data.

9. Support the mobility equipments such as; Cell phone, the signal can be sent even it is moving.

10. Decrease the cost of installing the signal transmitters because of the wider area that reduce the frequently of signal transmitter.

Those are all advantages of WIMAX. Then, Let's focus on the other side of WIMAX.

For disadvantages;

1. Because of Wimax is the new technology, many people do not trust in the WMAX.

2. Few people using the technologies of WIMAX.

3. As we said that it can reduce the cost of installing but in fact the signal transmitter of WIMAX are still expensive because they produced in little amount for using.
