[February 10, 2010] NEC CORPORATION: NEC to Launch New Femtocell Access Point from Ubiquisys Tweet C, Livingston, UK, Feb 10, 2010 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- 1994-2010 M2 COMMUNICATIONS London -- NEC Corporation (NEC) announced today the addition of a new femtocell access point from Ubiquisys, to its end-to-end femtocell solution. The NEC FP810 femtocell access point will be available to mobile operators in April 2010. "One of the main concerns of mobile operators has been to understand the business case for femtocells. The launch of the NEC FP810 proves how we are meeting that challenge by providing mobile operators with a low-price, high-performance and low-energy-consumption device," said Richard Hanscott, vice president, NEC Europe. The NEC FP810 is a discreet size - eight centimetres - and delivers high capacity and performance: it is capable of up to eight simultaneous calls and supports HSPA (High Speed Packet Access). It consumes less than 5W of power which is below the EC code of conduct power consumption targets and up to three times lower than most commercially available femtocells. "We have a proven track record with NEC in providing cutting-edge femtocell solutions to mobile operators and understand the challenges they face. Our collaboration with NEC meets these challenges by providing a low-cost femtocell solution with high performance and low-energy consumption," said Chris Gilbert, chief executive officer, Ubiquisys. The NEC FP810 is powered by the Femto-Engine software from Ubiquisys which has patented Self Organising Networks (SON) capabilities that provide continuous spectrum monitoring, self-adapting radio resource management and integral optimised timing synchronization.
