Open for Innovation

LightSquared will be the nation’s first truly open LTE wireless broadband network. LTE, a 3GPP technology standard, is the basis of the 4G network deployments of nearly every major carrier globally.

With its powerful platform and open ecosystem, LightSquared will allow application and service developers to innovate and create new data and voice services for partners. At a time when the U.S. economy is looking for new growth drivers, the LightSquared ecosystem will enable participants to fully leverage the possibilities of the mobile Internet.

To support mobile innovation, LightSquared has created the LightSquared SandBox program.

The LightSquared SandBox program is designed and built for the purpose of growing an ecosystem of third party software, hardware, and applications providers who, working with LightSquared, will not only transform the wireless industry, but also other industries such as healthcare, automotive, transportation, education, media, entertainment, and energy.

With LightSquared, the nation's first truly open wireless broadband network, anyone can develop applications and services to run on the network; partners can bundle the exact applications and services they want to offer; and end users can access those applications and services—whenever, wherever, and however they want.

From streaming video to VoIP, from augmented reality games to rich media apps yet-to-be-conceived, LightSquared can run them without restrictions. With the creation of LightSquared, America will finally see real competition in the wireless industry—and along with it, the kind of innovative thinking and development that is the nation’s hallmark.
