(NASDAQ: IPAS) a global provider of services that unify remote and mobile connectivity and devices, today announced a partnership with US Wireless Online to provide iPass Mobile Office (formerly iPass Corporate Access) customers secure and simple access to WiFi Downtown Pittsburgh, the city’s new municipal WiFi network. Starting today, iPass users will have access to this network through their award-winning iPassConnect™ universal client software.

“iPass and US Wireless Online are natural partners for making municipal networks available to high-value enterprise users.” said Anurag Lal Chief Business Development & Sales Officer at iPass. “iPass business travelers need secure, on-demand connectivity while visiting city centers. By working with US Wireless Online to deploy the first enterprise-ready WiFi network in downtown Pittsburgh, we ensure that the nearly one million quarterly users of our service will gain simple, secure and reliable access when working in the city.
