Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Kineto claims to be "he key innovator and leading supplier of UMA/GAN technology," UMA/GAN technology is the 3GPP global standard for fixed-mobile convergence. It is designed to enable secure, scalable access to mobile voice, data and multimedia services over broadband IP access networks. According Kineto, "By deploying UMA/GAN technology, mobile operators can deliver a number of compelling fixed-mobile convergence services."
The most common real-world applications of UMA/GAN today are dual-mode cellular/Wi-Fi handsets and these underpin the fixed-mobile convergence offerings of France Telecom/Orange, T-Mobile US, TeliaSonera, British Telecom and Cincinnati Bell.
Hot on the heels of Netgear's DVG834GH came a similar product from Motorola, billed as the 8100 Series - Motorola Femtocell Ethernet Gateway, and the 8000 Series Femtocell Access Point. This latter contains on the 3G cellular access point and an ethernet bridge, but needs to be connected to an ADSL modem and, if WiFi is required, to a separate WiFi access point.
Motorola has not said whether, like Netgear, it has imported the core femtocell technology from one of the specialist start-ups like Ubiquisys, or whether this is home grown.
Motorola also announced a new version of its NBBS device management system, a software platform that enables operators to remotely access, configure, and troubleshoot consumer devices. The new version includes support for femtocells, and WiMAX CPE.
