/PanARMENIAN.Net/ iCON Communications announced today the immediate
availability of its broadband Internet service in the Nor Norq and
Avan districts of Yerevan. This is part of the planned expansion of
service to cover all of Yerevan in the coming months. As of today,
Nor Norq districts 2-8, as well as part of district 1, are covered
by iCON’s state of the art WiMAX network. The southern and central
sections of Avan are also covered.
"We are very excited about this significant extension of our coverage
area. The Nor Norq and Avan communities are home to thousands of
residents that can now benefit from improved access to the global
community of information, commerce and personal communication" stated
Adam Kablanian, Chief Executive Officer of iCON Communications. "Also,
because iCON customers can access the Internet anywhere in our coverage
area, our existing customers can now use their iCON modems in Nor
Norq and Avan, just as our new customers in these districts can use
their modems anywhere else in the city where we provide coverage."
iCON’s network now covers over 70 square kilometers, including the
following districts: Kentron, Arabkir, Achapnyak, Vahakni Taghamas,
Kasakh village, Zeitun, Kayaran district, Nor Norq sections 2-8, and
Avan. Residents in all of these districts can choose from a variety
of wireless internet modems, including desktop modems and convenient
USB modems that can be carried and used anywhere in iCON’s network.
