Special Temporary Authority application - Initial values - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
This STA is necessary to provide for use by Sprint Nextel Corporation (Sprint Nextel) of up to 50 WiMAX Mini-PCI Express cards per form factor (for a total of up to 150 such cards) that have yet to receive Commission equipment authorization. As has been widely reported, the Xohm business unit of Sprint Nextel is planning to deploy high-speed WiMAX mobile broadband networks operating in the 2.5 GHz band in one trial market (Herndon, Virginia) from approximately January to July 2008. In conjunction with that deployment, Sprint Nextel is evaluating a variety of consumer devices from several vendors, including WiMAX Mini-PCI Express cards in three different form factors, Performance Build-Full Mini Card, and Value Build-Full/Half Mini Card from Intel Corporation (Intel) that are designed for use in laptop computers.

Special Temporary Authority application - Initial values - Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:
The purpose of the proposed operation is to assure that consumers realize the full benefit of Sprint Nextels new WiMAX network. Therefore, it is essential that Sprint Nextel has an opportunity to fully evaluate the performance of the WiMAX Mini-PCI Express cards provided by Intel under real world scenarios before the network becomes available to consumers. Because Sprint Nextels network is designed to provide ubiquitous service to consumers at work, at home and outdoors, and because these WiMAX Mini-PCI Express cards are intended for use in laptop computers that operate in a variety of locales, the testing must take place not only in business and commercial settings, but also in residential ones (where building construction and density is often quite different from that in other environments).
