What is Point-to-Omnipoint?
Point-to-Omnipoint, or Cell Broadcast, sends messages to predetermined cell broadcast areas. Unlike Point-to-Point messaging, Cell Broadcast does not use a dedicated link. The network operator is where all messages originate and the recipients include all users within a given cell, area, or network. Also unlike Point-to-Point, CB messages do not provide any assurance that the message was recieved.
