How does the Seeker Wireless solution differ from the “Femtocell” indoor base station approach?
The Seeker Wireless solution is completely different in that the subscriber does not need additional subscriber equipment and boxes, and bandwidth and provisioning, etc. to launch HomeZone. Not only does the subscriber get to keep their existing 2G/3G handset, but the solution can offer multiple zones in home or office environments. This means that end user does not need to set up any additional equipment in their home. Seeker Wireless agrees that the Femto/Indoor base station is useful for extending UMTS coverage, but there are provisioning issues that need to be addressed when multiple indoor BTS units come online and need to be integrated into an existing UMTS network.
