more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) announced operating and financial results for the third quarter ended April 30, 2021, substantially improving its operating results, and completing several milestones in its telecommunications segment.
Key results include:
- Total revenues for the quarter were $611,237 a 20.12% increase from the quarter ended January 31, 2021, and a 57.17% increase over the quarter ended April 30, 2020, the same period in the prior year. The increase was due to very strong performance in the OTT (“Over the Top”) market segment which includes its SMS messaging practice, wholesale voice as well as the hosting business.
- EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the quarter increased to $15,620. EBITDA loss was $30,325 for the quarter ended January 31, 2021, and a loss of $53,435 for the period ended April 30, 2020.
- Construction of the first tower location in Huntsville, AL is now complete and the company has begun its marketing efforts. It is anticipated that the network will have a positive contribution to operations in the third quarter.
- The Company continued to develop its HammerCall platform, including working with white label resellers on branded versions of the application. Users that are already on the platform have been reporting strong performance. HammerCall licenses will be included in certain fixed wireless packages, which will promote the application.
“We are now beginning to see the benefit of the platform that we have established,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO. “The OTT business continues to grow organically and Hammer’s telecommunications practice will be well positioned to respond to opportunities as markets continue to recover.”
In addition to strong growth from the OTT segment, Hammer also announced that it has completed construction of the first tower site in Huntsville, AL. “We are very pleased to announce Hammer’s return to the fixed wireless market. We are leveraging our strong brand recognition in the northern Alabama market to launch our wireless service for both the residential and business segments,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO. “This is a significant milestone in Hammer’s Everything Wireless strategy, the core of Hammer’s telecommunications business.”
Hammer continued to round out its OTT offerings with continuing development of its HammerCall platform, targeted toward video conferencing and collaboration. This included the production release of its IOS and Android applications. The Company also continued to work with its partners to develop white labelled versions of the application.

02/14/2021 - Hammer Fiber Optics Discusses 2021 Growth Potential with The Stock Day Podcast (HMMR)
more...
The Stock Day Podcast welcomed Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp. (OTCQB: HMMR) (“the Company”), a telecommunications company investing in the future of wireless technology. President and CEO of the Company, Erik Levitt, joined Stock Day host, Everett Jolly.
“Can you give us an update on your business plan and where you plan on going from here?”, asked Jolly to start the interview. Levitt shared that the Company’s business plan is made up of four primary divisions: a high-speed fixed wireless service, mobility, Over-The-Top (OTT) services, and SmartyCity. “Our plan continues to move forward on many fronts,” said Levitt. “Our OTT continues to grow, and we have several commitments from new and existing platform members that will begin in the coming quarter.”
“Our new product in OTT is HammerCall,” shared Levitt, noting that the website for this service is now live. “Test customers have been using HammerCall, which is our video and collaboration service, for some time now,” he continued, adding that the Company’s target market will primarily focus on small businesses with the need for one to twenty users. “Our cost per customer is quite low,” explained Levitt, before elaborating on the Company’s profit margins for both standard and wholesale customers.
“On our international segment, our new service in Dominica is progressing quite well, and our launch is underway,” shared Levitt. “We’ll soon have our new business segment, dominicavoice.com, available in the early-February timeframe.”
“The most significant news is on the fixed wireless front,” said Levitt. “We’re going to be reentering the fixed wireless market and we’re adding customers to our new Huntsville, Alabama network,” he continued. “Investors should anticipate that revenues from the fixed wireless business should overtake our OTT segment.”
“Can you provide us an update on the Huntsville, Alabama network?,” asked Jolly. “All of our agreements are in place, our first site is ready-to-go, the equipment orders are in place, and we’re temporarily holding pre-orders until we have that site complete, but in the meantime we’ve been very actively working on the new website to accept orders and on building our pipeline,” explained Levitt, adding that the Company currently has over 300 backorders in their pipeline. “We’re expecting to be contacting over 1,000 potential customers that have expressed interest within the first three months.”
Levitt then elaborated on the competitive advantages of the Company’s OTT service. “We’ll be offering a basic package to residential customers and a more advanced package for small businesses and higher volume residential customers, as well as a third package to buildings that are multi-dwell units where we can service the entire building with one wireless shot,” said Levitt. “We’re ready-to-go and once our fiber arrives at the Lowe Mill, we plan to hit the ground running.”
The conversation then turned to the importance of having access to wireless resources, including the possibility of being able to utilize 12 GHz, which has been traditionally used by satellite providers, in the near future. “They’re considering opening that up for use of high-volume services such as 5G. There’s also progress on CBRS, Citizens Broadband Radio Service, which is also beneficial to Hammer and other wireless service providers in the long-run,” said Levitt. “We hope that the FCC is going to continue to expand the frequencies available in CBRS because the more spectrum allocation we have, the more bandwidth we can deliver to users.”
“Under the current pandemic conditions, we continue to see bandwidth usage skyrocketing, and that’s going to continue into the foreseeable future,” said Levitt. “We don’t anticipate that a lot of businesses are going to return to the office. The trends have always been that we’ve been moving more towards the virtual office, and really the pandemic has increased that trend probably by a decade.”
Jolly then commented on the Company’s significant growth over a short period of time. “We certainly appreciate that our investors have been patient,” shared Levitt. “These things do take time to develop, but we’re starting to see now that we’re on the cusp of potentially explosive growth,” said Levitt. “We’re now growing into three of the four segments that are part of our Everything Wireless strategy. So, I think that the market is responding to that and we’re very excited to see growth in our stock.”
To close the interview, Levitt thanked his shareholders, board members, and team members for their continued dedication and support. “We’ve put a lot of work into the pieces of the Everything Wireless strategy and we’re really looking forward to what is going to come in the coming quarters.”

Key results include:
- Total revenues for the quarter were $484,842, increasing over the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019. The increase was due to strong performance from Hammer’s SMS messaging practice.

11/17/2020 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp Announces Results for Year Ended July 31, 2020
more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) announced operating and financial results for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2020. “During this fiscal year Hammer continued to evolve its operations in support of its Everything Wireless strategy,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO. “As we move into the new year more of our revenues will be derived from our Over-the-Top applications, such as SMS and HammerCall, as well as our Fixed Wireless business unit, beginning with our network in Huntsville, AL.”
Key results include:
- Total revenues for the fiscal year from the remaining ongoing operations decreased to $1,781,139 from $2,179,152. This decrease was primarily due to the discontinuation of Endstream Communications’ toll free termination business. Some of those losses were replaced by revenues from messaging services.
- Although operating loss adjusted for the remaining ongoing business increased to $277,665 from $137,459, operating loss year over year decreased from $468,366 from the prior year reported 10-K, a decrease of 40.71%. This loss was primarily due to the discontinuation of Endstream Communication’s toll free termination business, and we anticipate the losses will be substantially offset by the SMS services business on a forward-looking basis.
- Hammer reduced its operating costs by discontinuing its Open Data Centers colocation business. These cost reductions are expected to produce a material impact in the first quarter of 2020, ended October 31, 2020.
- Construction has begun on the new fixed wireless network in Huntsville, AL.
- Hammer expanded its US SMS network with presence in Mississippi, Alabama, Texas, New York, New Jersey and other states across the country while simultaneous increasing messaging revenues.
- Hammer completed the alpha phase of its HammerCall conferencing and collaboration application.

10/28/2020 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp Begins Construction of Wireless Network in Huntsville, AL - Signs First Tower Lease at Lowe Mill
more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) announced its first lease agreement to facilitate the construction of its wireless network in Huntsville, Alabama. The first radios for the new high-speed wireless service will be located on the 125-foot water tower located at the Lowe Mill ARTS & Entertainment center. The network will offer broadband services to both commercial and residential customers in Huntsville and the surrounding area under its HiWAAY brand.
1stPoint Communications, Hammer’s subsidiary, acquired the hosting assets of HiWAAY Information Services in July 2018, prior to merging with Hammer. HiWAAY was one of the first dialup Internet Service Providers to enter the northern Alabama market in the early 1990’s and transitioned the majority of their subscribers to DSL before exiting the market in 2015.
HiWAAY Internet Services will be a re-launch of Hammer’s high-speed wireless Internet services in the United States. “HiWAAY Internet is deeply rooted in the local community of Huntsville,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO, who led the acquisition team responsible for the asset purchase. “The strong brand recognition has resulted in exceptional market support and a continuous stream of leads. We anticipate a deep pipeline of clients as we have already started accepting pre-orders.”
“Our partnership with Lowe Mill A&E is exceptional,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO, who was responsible for lease negotiations. “We are pleased to be supporting a cultural center of Huntsville. We could not think of a better place to start.” In addition to leasing space on the water tower and interior space for its telecommunications needs, HiWAAY will provide free Wifi service to Lowe Mill’s community and guests.
“We welcome the return of HiWAAY’s Internet Service to Huntsville,” commented Jim Hudson, the owner of Lowe Mill Properties, LLC. “It has always been a part of our community.” The Lowe Mill ARTS & Entertainment center is centrally located near downtown, and its iconic water tower will host Hammer’s initial radio deployment.
Further information about the launch of the Huntsville Network will be available on HammerLive. The broadcast will be available at 2:00 PM Eastern Time on Monday, November 2nd at https://www.hammercorp.info/hammerlive.

09/03/2020 - Hammer Fiber (HMMR) Launches Video Conferencing Platform like Zoom
more...
Telecom provider Hammer Fiber Optics (OTCQB: HMMR) announced the launch of its own video conferencing and telemedicine platform called HammerCall.
To get an idea how hot video conferencing is one only need to look at stocks Zoom Video Communication (NASDQ:ZM) and TelaDoc Health (NASDAQ:TDOC), with their explosive rise in both share price and user engagement.
HMMR announced the first phase includes video and audio conferencing, text, chat and webinar functionality. In subsequent phases the application will evolve into a full business telephony system capable of replacing even the most modern Voice-Over-IP phone systems entirely with mobile devices.
Based on the recent explosion of Zoom share price it’s no wonder many traders are starting to take notice of HMMR now trading just below $0.14 per share.
New Research Upgrade Issued
Hammer Fiber received an upgrade following this news from Ludlow Research based on their jump into video conferencing market, and extreme investor demand for work from home plays.

08/23/2020 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp Enhances Privacy with YourSecretNumber
more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) subsidiary 1stPoint Communications has deployed its first privacy enhancing application, entitled YourSecretNumber (www.yoursecretnumber.com). The service, which is provided free to consumers, provides the user with an alternative mobile number to for use with online services such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, online banking applications, or any other service that uses text messages to exchange information with their customer.
It is very common for these services to use two-factor authentication (or 2FA) to provide an additional level of security for their service. But at the same time this practice exposes their customer to the additional level of exposure because the service provider is now in possession of the user’s mobile number. By providing YourSecretNumber users with an alternative mobile number, this eliminates this exposure. When a text is delivered to one of Hammer’s mobile numbers the user has the option of forwarding the text to an email address or conveniently displaying the content of the text on the YourSecretNumber portal web page.
“It is more important than ever to protect the privacy of users as more of our society moves quickly towards online activity,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO, who leads Hammer’s marketing efforts. “Using YourSecretNumber consumers can get that added level of protection and security they need to keep their data and identity safe.”
Clients may purchase add-ons to the service, such as the ability to send out text messages and forward voice calls to their real phone, completely obscuring their personal information.
Signup is simple, and takes less than five minutes to complete. “By inserting itself into the security value chain Hammer has the opportunity to monetize its SMS network,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO.
The service is anticipated to go live by the end of August 2020.

07/13/2020 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp Announces Third Quarter Financial Results
more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) announced operating and financial results for the third quarter ended April 30, 2020. “This is a challenging time for the entirety of the globe,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO. “The novel coronavirus has changed the way we interact, work, play, and communicate. It has changed everything in our daily lives. The impact on our way of life, and on the infrastructure that we need to support that new way of life is unprecedented.”
Due to global conditions there were delays in projects in Huntsville and Dominica, but both projects have now resumed. Hammer increased the reach of its SMS network, announcing a partnership with Telefonica and continued to build out its mobile origination footprint which now includes California, Texas, Florida, New York and Mississippi. Hammer’s management anticipates that these services will make a more substantial contribution to revenue in future quarters.
The company advanced its “Over-the-Top” (“OTT”) infrastructure by developing a suite of services to enhance remote workforce and video conferencing capabilities as well as products targeting consumer privacy by leveraging its status as a mobile network operator. The first applications are already in final tests and announcements on the full breadth and scope of the application suite will be forthcoming.

- In May 2020 Hammer received an $88,000 loan under the Paycheck Protection Program. It has met the obligations of the note and expects to file for forgiveness.

more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) announced operating and financial results for the second quarter ended January 31, 2020. “This was a quarter of transformation for Hammer,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO. “During the quarter we discontinued certain non-core operations, such as our toll free termination business, while setting the stage for our long term growth.

Key results include:
- Total revenues for the quarter decreased to $536,277 from $877,317, a 35.80% decrease versus the same quarter in the prior year. This is primary due to the discontinuation of Endstream Communications’ Toll Free Termination business.
- The net loss from operations for the quarter increased to $187,539 from $109,725, a 70% increase versus the same quarter in the prior year. This increase is primarily due to the discontinuation of the Endstream Communications’ Toll Free Termination business. The company will be taking steps throughout the current quarter and subsequent quarters to reduce the loss, while focusing on increasing revenue from its core businesses.
- The company has continued to move forward its projects in Huntsville, AL and in the Caribbean, but may encounter delays due to the current global conditions.
- The company recently announced its partnership with Telefonica International Wholesale Services, which is representative of its commitment to developing revenues from its over-the-top platform as it continues to develop its wireless assets.
“We will continue to progress toward our planned implementations,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO. “The rapid adoption of teleworking has underscored the importance of our collaboration tools, text messaging services and ultimately our new wireless networks to consumers, small businesses and enterprises.”

03/17/2020 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp Announces Telefónica & Hammer Sign SMS Interconnection Agreement
more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) and Telefónica International Wholesale Services announced today that they have signed a bilateral SMS interconnection agreement allowing the exchange of Person-to-Person (P2P) SMS traffic worldwide. Telefónica will provide Hammer access to its global network of service providers, spanning all continents. Hammer will provide direct access to its carrier operations in the United States and other markets as they are brought online.
P2P SMS are text messages sent from person to person over the mobile network using personal devices. Messages sent from applications such as ride share or notification services to the mobile network are commonly referred to as A2P messages.
“We welcome the opportunity to partner with Telefónica, one of the largest and most successful operators in the world,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO, who is responsible for the marketing and product development of Hammer’s SMS services. “This agreement allows our subscribers and wholesale customers to send P2P messaging worldwide to all of Telefónica’s operators and partners.”
“Telefonica’s SMS service is the ideal solution for high quality worldwide coverage for MNOs and MVNOs without any complex bilateral negotiations. We look forward to our mutual success in completing this agreement with Hammer and becoming a key partner for their extended reach needs” said Aloysio Bleyer, America’s VP of Sales for Telefonica International Wholesale Services.
“Providing P2P services globally is much rarer than one way A2P networks. This will attract ASPs and service providers that want two way messaging capabilities not currently offered by other operators, creating new revenue sources for Hammer,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO. “Partnerships with major operators such as Telefónica are critical to our success and we appreciate their willingness to work with us and help us grow.”

06/06/2019 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp Subsidiary To Offer Internet Services in Alabama
more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (HMMR) announced today that its subsidiary, 1stPoint Communications, will resume offering Internet Services in Huntsville, Homewood and Birmingham, Alabama. This is a significant milestone in the deployment of Hammer’s “Everything Wireless” strategy. In July 2018 1stPoint acquired the assets of Hiwaay Information Services, Inc. Hiwaay had supplied Internet access to enterprise, small business and residential customers through dial-up and DSL before discontinuing the services in 2016 and 2017. 1stPoint had acquired the remaining web hosting and enterprise Internet access business as well as Hiwaay’s Homewood edge colocation facility.
Building on the strong brand recognition, Hammer will begin deploying wireless residential customers in partnership with other operators until it can expand its own network infrastructure in the market. “The Hiwaay name is very well known in the Huntsville marketplace. Customers are turning to us asking for a low cost, high quality alternative for residential and small business Internet access,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO, who led the purchase of the Hiwaay assets. Hammer will focus on the delivery of residential and small businesses in Huntsville, while concentrating on business and enterprise services in Birmingham and Homewood, where it continues to maintain its edge data center.
“We see Alabama and the southeastern United States as a key market segment. The corridor between Nashville, Birmingham and Atlanta will be a near-term focus for our operations in the United States,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO, who also participated in closing the Hiwaay asset purchase. Hammer’s proprietary AIR™ technology provides a significant competitive advantage in certain markets that are considered underserved due to the requirement for long range, reliable communications. “Our objective is to provide the fastest and most reliable communications possible to the global citizen, whether that is here in the United States or in any of our operating territories.”

06/04/2019 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp Moves Forward in Sierra Leone and With Global Messaging Network
more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (HMMR) announced today that it has progressed in the completion of both its Sierra Leone fixed wireless network as well as the expansion of its global SMS messaging network.
The first point of presence in Freetown, Sierra Leone is nearing completion, with all of the in-building deployment and construction having been completed. Once final delivery of intercompany telecommunications infrastructure has been accepted, the network will be live. “We will begin accepting orders from business customers shortly,” said Michael Cothill, Hammer’s Chairman. “Our high speed access network will deliver unparalleled quality.” The network will have in-country diversity and is constructed to the best available modern standard for the region.
Hammer plans to offer local access to other global operators on a wholesale basis. Carrier customers will have the option of accepting delivery of services in Freetown or at certain European points of presence, either as point-to-point facilities or in-country Direct Internet Access.
While construction is progressing on networks in West Africa and with its partners in the Eastern Caribbean, Hammer’s subsidiary, 1stPoint Communications, has continued building out its robust SMS messaging platform. Building on its US messaging network and nationwide CMRS license, 1stPoint is adding several international direct routes to tier one operators worldwide. As these interconnections are completed, messaging services are being offered to Hammer’s existing retail customers as well as on a wholesale basis. These services, which are part of the foundation of the “Everything Wireless” strategy, will continue to grow in advance of the deployment of fixed wireless and mobile data networks. “Our unique approach to each market allows us to establish profitability in a market on an accelerated basis,” said Erik Levitt, Hammer’s CEO.
“The integration of the four pillars of Everything Wireless is critical to our success,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO. “High speed fixed wireless, using Hammer’s patented Air™ Technology, mobility, OTT and smart city can be provided as one single platform to end users and operator partners through our Mobile Network Services Provider program.” The MNSP program allows MSOs, wireless carriers, wireless ISPs or traditional telecommunications operators to commission wireless networks without the capital expense or investment in personnel with the expertise necessary to operate a sophisticated wireless infrastructure. “Both partnerships and direct operator licenses will be part of Hammer’s strategy on an ongoing basis,” added Levitt. “We look forward to working with more partners in the coming months.”

Hammer Wireless expands its International Growth Strategy and Secures its first Nationwide African Broadband License
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) announced today that it has formed its first African subsidiary, Hammer Wireless [SL] Ltd. to deliver its proprietary wireless broadband services to the African continent. Hammer Wireless was recently awarded a nationwide 28GHz license by the telecommunications regulator NATCOM. Hammer Wireless will deploy Sierra Leone’s first true high speed fixed wireless network. The first phase of the project will be co-financed by Hammer and Telecom Financial Services [SA] in Switzerland in exchange for equity in the subsidiary.

As part of its Everything Wireless strategy, Hammer will expand the network in several phases, providing access to fixed wireless internet, video and voice applications all on one integrated high-speed network.
“The government of Sierra Leone’s ICT mandate is to significantly improve education and economic development through broadband penetration, which was measured at 3% nationwide by the ITU in 2018,” said Michael Cothill, Hammer’s Executive Chairman. “In deploying our AIR technology the government can meet its objectives.” Mr. Cothill has extensive experience in broadband deployment across the continent of Africa.
“The deployment in Sierra Leone marks our entry into our second, and largest, major geographical market,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO. “Our flexible model, which can include direct operator agreements as well as partnerships through our MNSP program, can be replicated throughout Africa, the Eastern Caribbean, in the United States and other parts of the world.”

Piscataway, N.J. January 7, 2018 – Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) and Wikibuli, Inc. announced today that the transaction between the companies closed as planned on January 1, 2019.

The planned network, powered by Hammer’s proprietary Air (TM) technology, will be designed to provide high speed fixed wireless services, mobility, WiFi and will incorporate Smart City capabilities.
“We have been preparing for the implementation of the wholesale voice and SMS network through the end of 2018,” said Sean Partington, Wikibuli’s CEO. “We are still on schedule for an initial deployment in late February.” The first phase of construction will establish the basic network infrastructure and allow for revenue streams from the wholesale business in advance of the wireless deployment.
Hammer launched its MNSP program in July 2018 with 1stPoint Communications, now a key Hammer subsidiary. The program is a framework for launching networks in the United States and internationally where wireless spectrum is available. The Air architecture allows for a wide range of allocations and is many times more efficient than fiber based implementations while delivering similar speeds and a wide range of applications.
“The unique value proposition of our Everything Wireless strategy will bring a new paradigm to subscribers in Dominica,” said Erik Levitt. “Our objective is to bring unparalleled new service levels both on and off-island.”
“Connecting our subscribers worldwide as we build networks with our partners is going to be a priority for us,” said Kristen Vasicek, who is responsible for the global marketing plan. “The partnership with Wikibuli is a tremendous opportunity for meaningful social change through our unique technology and local expertise.”

more...
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp (OTCQB: HMMR) and Wikibuli, Inc. announced a definitive agreement to provide wireless telecommunications services in Dominica with a closing date of January 1, 2019. Wikibuli obtained its telecommunications license in Dominica in 2013, providing services on the island until September 2017.

The initial agreement addresses the construction of the wholesale voice network, and creates the framework for the possible construction of LTE, Wi-fi and fixed wireless infrastructure in subsequent phases of the project. Hammer’s proprietary Air™ technology will provide Wikibuli a unique high speed fixed wireless solution and a powerful backhaul technology for the proposed LTE and mobile Wifi deployments. Hammer’s subsidiaries, 1stPoint Communications, Endstream Communications and Open Data Centers will provide the hosted switching services and wholesale gateway for Wikibuli’s next generation voice and SMS network. Wikibuli anticipates completion of the wholesale voice network by the end of February 2019.
As part of the agreement Hammer will purchase an equity interest in Wikibuli in exchange for cash and common stock of Hammer. Hammer CEO Erik Levitt and COO Kristen Vasicek, will join the Board of Directors of Wikibuli. “The transaction with Wikibuli is a template for how Hammer will execute on its vision,” said Erik Levitt.
WIkibuli co-founders CEO Sean Partington and COO Glen Simon, will remain on the Board of Directors of Wikibuli and will continue to manage the day-to-day business affairs of Wikibuli. “We are very excited to be working with the Hammer team,” explained Mr. Simon. “They have a strong track record of success and we have confidence in our combined capabilities.” The combined extensive Caribbean experience of Mr. Partington, Mr. Simon and Mr. Levitt bring a strong understanding of the region and marketplace enhancing the success of the project.
“This agreement is representative of the power of Everything Wireless,” said Kristen Vasicek, Hammer’s COO. Hammer’s Everything Wireless strategy includes four components: high speed fixed wireless, Over-the-Top technologies such as voice, video and SMS, mobility and smart city. The foundation of Everything Wireless is Hammer’s colocation, hosting and wholesale voice and SMS practice. Vasicek states, “Our combination of local understanding and global reach will be a key factor in our success. The partnership with Wikibuli proves that we have a strong framework on which to base projects that are currently under consideration.

05/21/2018 - Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp. (HMMR) Advances Bid to Take Wireless Fiber Services Nationwide
more...
An agreement announced on May 8 by Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings Corp. (OTCQB: HMMR) to acquire the stock of 1stPoint Communications, LLC and its subsidiaries represents Hammer’s first acquisition, and furthers Hammer Fiber Optics’ plans to expand its wireless Internet, television, voice and fiber optic carrier services as it considers growing from its New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania base of operations toward a national network (http://ibn.fm/nkUai). The acquisition brings important revenue and EBITDA into the model.
Hammer Fiber Optics Holdings’ mission is to spearhead a change in the way television, Internet and phone services are delivered to entertainment-hungry consumers, and the company, doing business as Hammer Communications, is aligning itself with other businesses that embrace the same ideals as their core strengths.
Business models within the wireless, cable TV and media industries are changing as rapid technological advancement drives a convergence of the industries and redefines their parameters, joining their services together in one platform. Wireless networks are a primary catalyst of the overall industry transition (http://ibn.fm/Omm44).
The letter of intent for acquisition of 1stPoint Communications, LLC and subsidiaries Open Data Centers, LLC and Endstream Communications, LLC is “an ideal combination of intellectual property,” 1stPoint Communications CEO Erik Levitt stated in a news release. “Hammer will not only have the benefit of the exclusive rights to the patented AIR wireless technology but also to 1stPoint’s switching technology, its underlying CLECs (competitive local exchange carriers) and its Commercial Mobile Radio Services operator.”
In addition, the Open Data Centers facility in New Jersey, which includes its server and switching platforms, is “a significant addition to our core infrastructure to support major growth in the cloud and hosting markets,” Hammer’s founder, Mark Stogdill, stated in the news release.
The company recently revealed plans to launch a cloud hosting and infrastructure-as-a-service platform (IaaS) that offers hosting, cloud and colocation services for blockchain-interested enterprises. Data centers and the energy necessary to use them for cryptocurrency mining can require enormous overhead expenses of businesses, but Hammer’s best-in-class computer servers are prepared to deliver a cloud-based system to those small crypto businesses and free them from the constraints of building and maintaining their own corporate data centers.
Hammer currently serves residential and small businesses in its core market region by supplying high-capacity broadband, voice and video through cabled fiber as well as through its wireless fiber platform. As Hammer adds wholesale services such as backhaul support for cellular network operators, the company expects to position itself as a leader in future 5G technology.
Hammer is leveraging its systems to deliver high-capacity broadband to markets across the country at much lower cost than traditional methods. Live field testing of the new system begins this year with commercial service to follow in the coming months.
In January, the company also announced the launch of a virtual private network service (VPN) to accommodate clients’ concerns about privacy in their Internet usage, one of several ways Hammer is building its infrastructure and carrier grade services.
“We wanted to make sure that our customers had a way to connect and surf the internet away from the scrutiny of internet service providers, even ourselves,” Daniel Corbe, the director of Network Operations, stated in a news release. “Recently, the monitoring of internet usage and potential restriction on that usage have created a demand for customers to maintain their freedom.”

adding SMS to its voice, data and video services
more...
New York, NY – January 18, 2015 – Endstream Communications, a next-generation carrier providing high-quality, cost-effective telecommunications solutions, announced today the completion of its SMS hub deployment. Building on its powerful, underlying StreamEngine routing platform, Endstream is uniquely positioned to quickly develop a best-of-breed SMS network.
“We have developed an unparalleled number of carrier interconnections on our voice platform and we have been able to leverage those relationships to build out our SMS hub rapidly,” explained Erik Levitt, Endstream's CEO.
The initial deployment is capable of routing more than ten thousand messages per second, with features for both message origination, message termination, and both long code and short code support. “Customers have been requesting SMS as an added feature for their customers, and thus, deployment is in response to those demands,” added Levitt, “We used to consider a converged service including voice, data and video. Now we need to add SMS to that list.”
The SMSC supports both SMPP and HTTP for carrier interconnection, with support for SS7 planned in the second quarter of this year. Messaging APIs for application deliver are available using a standardized API. As carriers are added to the network, rates will continue to become even more competitive.
Because of the extensive routing capabilities, Endstream's SMSC will be able to provide routing options previously unavailable to small to mid-sized operators, adding to their competitive advantage. “We are looking forward to serving the industry in SMS as we have over the past seven and a half years in wholesale voice,” Levitt concluded.

New York, NY. June 18, 2012—In support of growing demand for wholesale and retail voice services Endstream Communications announced today that it has expanded its footprint to include locations in Newark, NJ, Piscataway, NJ, and Fort Lauderdale, FL.

In addition, Endstream will be moving one of its two primary switching facilities into its POP in Piscataway, NJ, which will significantly increase physical capacity. “Access to space, conditioned power and fiber assets is critical as Endstream continues to roll out its new suite of retail and wholesale products,” added Levitt. “The Piscataway POP provides us with an on-ramp for growth in cloud computing, wireless products, hosting and other managed voice and data services.”

- 02.04.10 - Endstream SIP Trunking Services Certified as Interoperable with Xorcom IP-PBX more...
Misgav, Israel and New York, NY. February 4, 2010 - Xorcom, a privately-held manufacturer of business telephony interfaces and appliances based on Asterisk open source software, and Endstream Communications, LLC., a next-generation carrier focusing on VoIP
and telecommunications solutions for the wholesale, enterprise and middle markets. The bundled offering delivers significant cost savings over traditional telecommunication services for calling within the United States and worldwide while leveraging
the flexibility and reliability of Xorcom's IP-PBX line.
Xorcom's all-in-one appliances allow seamless communication using both VoIP and traditional telephony protocols, such as FXS, FXO, BRI, T1/E1 PRI, T1 CAS and E1 R2. Members of the series differ in the number of supported users, starting from the basic XR1000, which is suitable for SOHO, up to the robust XR3000, which supports up to eight PRI connections along with hundreds of analog and IP extensions. The award-winning TwinStar feature enables dual-server redundancy for the complete PBX, including all telephony trunks and interfaces, as well as IP phones.
Endstream Communications offers reliable, efficient, and cost-effective phone and internet solutions to large and medium-sized businesses. These solutions include SIP trunking, a direct IP connection between the customer's PBX and Endstream's premium SoftSwitch cluster. By allowing customers to tap into unused bandwidth on their existing Internet connection, customers will save costs by converging their local, long-distance and broadband internet services onto a single circuit. In addition, Endstream provides local numbers for remote locations.
In addition, organizations with multiple locations, or who want flexibility in growth, can receive unlimited local and inbound calls for a low monthly rate. Long-distance and international per minute charges are much lower than traditional PRI or POTS service.
Furthermore, medium to large organizations can utilize a high-capacity digital PRI connection supporting up to 23 simultaneous calls via one of Endstream's wholesale carriers. Small to medium-size organizations will appreciate Endstream's "Virtual POTS" service, which supports a traditional analog phone connection.
"Performing interoperability with leading SIP Trunking providers such as Endstream is testimony to the fact that Xorcom is fully committed to bringing the most flexible, efficient and cost-effective solutions to market. Xorcom's focus is to take the guesswork out of connecting Asterisk solutions to SIP Trunking services. After all, making a phone call is supposed to be easy," said Bill Soto, US and Canada Sales Manager, Xorcom. "We are very pleased with our interoperability with Endstream and are looking forward to many successful implementations."
