Backers of a narrow-band wireless technology that uses low frequencies alongside existing activity on the wireless transmission spectrum claim better reach than next-generation WiMax wireless, with a lower cost because of the sub-gigahertz spectrum and low power required for the solution.

Florida-based xGTM Technology has been testing a wireless technology the company calls xMax, which it says can take advantage of lower-spectrum performance advantages without impacting the many other users of the spectrum, including TV and radio broadcasters.
