SAMSUNG Expands Infrastructure Portfolio For North American Wireless Operators

At the annual Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association’s (CTIA) tradeshow, Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung) today unveiled its new Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) portfolio that will allow wireless network operators to offer complete coverage tailored to the geography and consumer needs in that area. Deployed independently or in concert, Samsung’s new wireless systems products enable reliable service coverage whether in an enclosed area or across urban and rural regions.

Small and lightweight, the Samsung Spot BTS expands in-building coverage in high traffic areas such as airports, office buildings and shopping malls to help eliminate network coverage gaps that could result in dropped calls and unreliable service. The solution supports high-speed 1x EV-DO multimedia applications and can be deployed easily due to its simple wall-mounted installation.

With the Samsung Flexell BTS, service providers can expand their coverage across large rural areas and interstate highways on the CDMA2000 1X, 1xEV-DO and WCDMA platforms to meet current and future call capacity and radio coverage needs. And, with flexible power options (AC or DC input), the Flexell offers a wide range of deployment possibilities.

The Samsung T3C BTS offers expanded power and capacity for suburban environments. This system ensures that service reliability remains consistent in the outlying areas of major population centers.

These three new products join Samsung’s next generation system, the Samsung V.5 BTS, which is the highest capacity CDMA BTS on the market. This multi-carrier system can support up to eight carriers, or 15 carriers with an optional expansion rack. The Samsung V.5 BTS is designed for large urban environments with high population and extensive wireless traffic demands.

The company is showcasing these new products in booth #1045 at the CTIA show in New Orleans, Monday, March 14 to Wednesday, March 16.

“Samsung has deployed CDMA base stations throughout the world, including Korea, China, Japan, Australia, Russia, and North America,” said J. Neal Smith, senior director of wireless systems for Samsung Telecommunications America. “By working closely with wireless operators, we have created the most comprehensive product portfolio – in-building, urban, suburban and rural – that can accommodate all network expansion and coverage needs.”
