Reportlinker Adds Femtocell Teardown Report


NEW YORK --(Business Wire)-- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue.

Femtocell (News - Alert) Teardown Report http://www.reportlinker.com/p0133276/Femtocell-Teardown-Report.html Abstract: New report within its proprietary DNA-I series, a Vodafone (News - Alert) Access Gateway W-CDMA 2100MHz BSR Femtocell unit." "As this unit was recently launched at the beginning of July in the UK, we were curious to understand how this product compared to CDMA femtocells that have been launched in the US by Sprint and Verizon (News - Alert) Wireless.

The design is much simpler and the level of integration is significantly higher. Our biggest concern is the disparate pricing that Vodafone has established between retail consumers and enterprise customers for this product in the UK. The difference is roughly twice the price in local currency for enterprise customers," said founder and President, Earl Lum.

The author has recently released a femtocell report titled Global Femtocell Market Analysis and Forecast, 1st Edition, 2008-2013 that provides a detailed RF analysis and discussion of macrocell-femtocell RF interference and handover challenges for the mobile network and handsets.


"We are excited to have the opportunity to showcase this unit as well as power amplifiers, transceivers, remote radio heads, femtocells and base stations from other wireless equipment OEMs as part of our DNA-I program," says Lum.

The following semiconductor & passive component suppliers are included in this report: - Analog Device, - Epcos AG, - Hynix Semiconductor, - IDT, - Intersil, - Lattice Semiconductor, - Marvell Semiconductor, - Maxim Integrated Products (News - Alert), - Micron Technology, - Murata Manufacturing, - ON Semiconductor, - SAGEM Communications, - Skyworks Solutions, - Texas Instruments, - Xilinx (News - Alert) Semiconductor.
