Joe Cozzolino, corporate vice president and general manager Motorola Home & Networks Mobility EMEA, said: "We offer a fully integrated and tested end-to-end solution, based on open standard interfaces, which includes a range of femtocell customer premises equipment and 3G devices, a core network concentrator, systems integration services and a CPE management solution - the Motorola Netopia) Broadband Server."
