Lucent Technologies Unveils Several New CDMA2000 Products Ideal for Emerging Markets.- Cost-effective and Compact Base Station and Switching Platforms Can Help Wireless Service Providers Reduce Operating Expenses Operating expenses The amount paid for asset maintenance or the cost of doing business, excluding depreciation. Earnings are distributed after operating expenses are deducted. - Several Operators Worldwide Are Receiving Shipments of These Products MURRAY HILL Murray Hill may refer to one of the following places:
See: New York Stock Exchange : LU) today unveiled several new CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) A method for transmitting simultaneous signals over a shared portion of the spectrum. The foremost application of CDMA is the digital cellular phone technology from QUALCOMM that operates in the 800 MHz band and 1.9 GHz PCS band. 2000[R] products ideal for wireless service providers that desire to provide high-quality third-generation (3G) mobile voice and high-speed data services in emerging markets. These cost-effective and compact base station and switching platforms also can help reduce operating expenses. Several wireless service providers are already receiving shipments of these products, which include the Lucent Mobility Manager Compact, a switching platform that handles the call processing In telecommunication, the term call processing has the following meanings:
"Typically, service providers in emerging markets demand cost-competitive, scalable, and reliable products that can provide significant investment protection so that they can easily and cost-effectively upgrade their existing infrastructure as their subscriber base grows and the need to support the latest technological advancements arises," said Mary Chan, vice president of global Mobility research and development, Lucent Technologies. "We're meeting all of these needs with the products we've introduced today." Mike Iandolo, president of Mobility Access Solutions for Lucent Technologies, added, "CDMA is a large and sustainable market with growth opportunities in the emerging markets segment. The products we've introduced today will help Lucent better compete for business in this space." Lucent CDMA Base Station 4400 The Lucent CDMA Base Station 4400 is an ultra-compact base station, ideal for small to medium capacity network deployments. Its small footprint saves on real estate and operational support costs. The product supports CDMA2000 1X, CDMA2000 1xEV-DO Revision 0 and CDMA2000 1xEV-DO Revision A technology, as well as IP (Internet Protocol See Internet and TCP/IP. (networking) Internet Protocol - (IP) The network layer for the TCP/IP protocol suite widely used on Ethernet networks, defined in STD 5, RFC 791. IP is a connectionless, best-effort packet switching protocol. ) backhaul capabilities. Built on Lucent's OneBTS[R] base station platform for 3G spread-spectrum technologies, the Base Station 4400 can support 850 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. spectrum. Currently, the indoor version is generally available. The outdoor version will be available early next year. Lucent Mobility Manager Compact The Mobility Manager Compact supports CDMA2000 1X voice and data services and advanced features such as IP backhaul. It also has an improved design that maximizes call processing power. Lucent Packet Switch Compact The Packet Switch Compact is a scaleable switching solution that enables operators to add capacity as needed, providing significant investment protection. It also supports the evolution to IMS (1) See IP Multimedia Subsystem. (2) (Information Management System) An early IBM hierarchical DBMS for IBM mainframes. IMS was widely implemented throughout the 1970s under MVS and continues to be used under z/OS. (IP Multimedia Subsystem An integrated network for telecommunications carriers that uses the IP protocol as its foundation for packetized voice, video and data. Supporting voice over IP (VoIP) in all its flavors (SIP, H.323, MGCP, etc. ) via its support for IP applications. When deploying this system in remote or rural areas, the switching and vocoding functions can be moved closer to the base stations while maintaining a central Mobility Manager and home location register. This can help operators reduce backhaul costs. "Emerging markets continue to be a growth opportunity for all wireless technologies," noted Peter Jarich, principal analyst with Current Analysis. "Opex-efficient base stations are a key component of any developing market offer. Flexible switching assets - along with credible professional services (job) professional services - A department of a supplier providing consultancy and programming manpower for the supplier's products. capabilities - are equally important." Lucent Services, a leading network solutions integrator, is one of the industry's most experienced network services organizations. Lucent's Professional Services team provides a wide range of wireless capabilities that fully complement Lucent's products introduced today including RF planning, network optimization, deployment and integration, maintenance and remote monitoring and control.
