PureWave Constellation LTE Small Cells Will Deliver Up to
1Gbps of LTE Traffic in Metropolitan Deployments, and Offer
Integrated WiFi, Advanced SON, and Traffic Shaping Options
NEW ORLEANS, May 7, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- INTERNATIONAL CTIA
WIRELESS(R) 2012 -- PureWave Networks, a rapidly growing 4G small cell
pioneer, today unveiled PureWave Constellation, a revolutionary family
of small cell LTE base stations designed to deliver astonishing
wireless capacity over a range of several dense city blocks. In
addition to ground-breaking network capacity, PureWave Constellation
base stations offer operators a wide array of network deployment
options, including multi-carrier and multi-frequency capability,
advanced SON and integrated WiFi options.
PureWave Constellation LTE small cells continue to build on PureWave's
expertise of delivering exceptional power and performance in a compact
package. The base stations support up to 256 active users, up to 5W of
power per antenna and boast a scalable and flexible architecture.
PureWave Constellation LTE base stations are designed to blend
seamlessly into their environment. Offered in small and elegant, yet
rugged packaging, they can be mounted virtually anywhere and are
designed to simplify the urban permitting process and minimize visual
impact.
"The rapidly growing market for 4G small cells is pulling a lot of new
vendors into the space," said Don Meiners, PureWave's CEO. "While our
competitors are dipping their toes into the small-cell space, we are
bringing to market a 3rd generation family of products that we feel
will set the bar for LTE small cell base stations."
"By all measures customer demand for wireless data is growing much
faster than available wireless network capacity," said Monica Paolini,
Senza Fili Consulting. "Small cells capable of delivering high
throughput and capacity in a dense urban environment give wireless
operators the infrastructure resources that they need to align their
network performance with what their customers demand. PureWave is a
player to watch in the small-cell space."
PureWave Constellation small cells will begin field trials in Q4, 2012,
in bands 13 and 14, quickly followed by a wide range of additional
frequencies.
