CABLE & Wireless Jamaica (C&WJ) is helping its sister company in Cayman to have mobile services there fully restored as quickly as possible.

C&WJ said it would be shipping eight 1900MHz transmitters to the Cayman Islands. Cable & Wireless' bmobile service in Cayman is currently functional and serving customers, and the transmitters being sent from Jamaica will help Cable & Wireless Cayman cope with the growing demand now being placed on its services.

Similar assistance is being extended by Cable & Wireless Barbados to Cable & Wireless Grenada where the situation is much the same, with the Cable & Wireless bmobile service facing increasing demand from customers.

The ability of Cable & Wireless in Jamaica and Barbados to assist companies in neighbouring islands is a critical advantage for the company as time required for manufacture and delivery of equipment that is needed is normally in the range of eight-12 weeks.

"We are happy to be in a position to help the people of Cayman in this way," commented Gary Barrow, president of Cable & Wireless Jamaica.

C&WJ said the equipment being sent to the Cayman Islands is a small portion of the inventory being held for deployment under its ongoing development programme.
