An Iowa-based CLEC named Gazelle Link has partnered with Sprint Wholesale to bring a wireless component to its Smart Communications Consortium quad play offering. SCC is the name of what Gazelle Link CEO Johnny M. Brown says will be a group of broadband stimulus award winners that will come together to more efficiently and cost effectively deliver voice, data, television and wireless services.
Brown says Gazelle Link plans to leverage the kiosk interface he invented for the quad play services. He declined to provide names of what broadband stimulus award winners are or might be involved in the SCC.
However, a press release issued by the company says the SCC expects to begin offering quad play services in the coming months, with the first product installations to occur in the Midwest and Northern Plains regions. Gazelle Link’s subsidiary GZ Link Wireless will be handling the MVNO launch.
