Tackling the home and small enterprise access mass market
When you first approach 3G home or small enterprise access, integrating myriads of femto cells with radio and core networks is a daunting challenge. Addressing consumers with femto customer premises equipment (CPE) requires a consumer mass-market product strategy instead of the traditional macro base station approach. Our solution reconciles network integration with a mass-market femto base station business model.
Moving towards a multivendor future
A standardized and open interface is a key factor in network integration of 3G femto CPEs. Our 3G Femto Solution provides standardized Iu interfacing of CPE and core network via the Femto Gateway.
The Femto Gateway connects to 3G femto CPEs via Iu/IP. A rich variety of CPEs, certified by Nokia Siemens Networks to operate correctly against the open Iu interface, will be offered by globally recognized vendors with existing mass delivery and support channels. This opens the door to a broad femto cell CPE offering for the home access mass market. So talk to Nokia Siemens Networks - we speak femto.
