Most of us want to use our mobile phones at home, even when fixed line services are available. Much of this is about convenience. Having one phone with integrated address books which works anywhere is a no-brainer.
We want to use the device on which friends and family call us and we're all starting to expect one number and one device to handle all our communications needs – wherever we happen to be.
But there's a problem and it's the open secret that's been bugging the mobile industry for years: poor in-building coverage often stops us using our mobiles at home and is impeding take-up of all those exciting 3G services we've been promised for so many years.
The Ubiquisys ZoneGate femtocell is a small ‘zero-touch’ plug-and-play device that plugs into your home broadband connection and provides brilliant 3G coverage in the home. It even allows you to choose who of your friends and family can use the services.
And unlike WiFi, the ZoneGate system allows you to use your usual 3G handset.
ZoneGate means excellent mobile coverage at landline rates and will also allow mobile operators to deliver innovative new services right where need them – in your home.
• ZoneGate means brilliant home coverage where existing mobile service is poor, congested or non-existent.
• ZoneGate means better quality of service – with faster data speeds & lower latency than using an operator's macro network.
• ZoneGate means simultaneous voice and data calls for up to four users per access point.
• ZoneGate enables flexible pricing packages – mobile services at landline prices in the home.
• ZoneGate means better coverage, same handset – excellent home coverage without the need to change handset.
• ZoneGate technology decreases the transmitted power of the handset meaning less drain on batteries and much less transmitted power than either DECT or WiFi.
• ZoneGate means one device, one number – convergence without compromise.
