- Vodafone Netherlands is the first operator in the
world to deploy the second-generation indoor picocell base stations
(RBS 6402) in Vodafone shops
- Ericsson indoor picocell solution allows quick
indoor deployment and optimum coordination with the outdoor macro
network
- Network live in 10 minutes with tablet-sized
footprint and innovative plug-and-play installation
capabilities
Together with Vodafone Netherlands, Ericsson
(NASDAQ: ERIC) implements second-generation picocell base stations
(RBS 6402) throughout Vodafone shops in the Netherlands.
The RBS 6402 is a sleek, compact and
high-performance indoor picocell radio base station with
multi-standard, multi-band capabilities and Wi-Fi support. It
installs quickly and easily to boost coverage and capacity in
smaller venues such as offices, restaurants, and stores.
As one of Europe's leading operators, Vodafone
serves 32 million business customers worldwide and supports
companies with its quality services by continuously innovating its
business. In the Netherlands, Vodafone serves over 5 million
business and residential customers through approximately 400
shops.
Valter D'Avino, Head of Ericsson's Region Western
and Central Europe, says: "As a strategic network supplier to
Vodafone, Ericsson is delivering on our promise to work closely
with Vodafone to expand their opportunities in the enterprise
market with our small cell portfolio."
The RBS 6402 picocell complements the Ericsson
Radio Dot System. The RBS 6402 addresses buildings up to 5000
square meter in size; for larger buildings and venues the Radio Dot
solution is preferred.
Smaller buildings and venues have the same mobile
broadband coverage and capacity requirements as their larger
counterparts. The compact all-in-one design of the RBS 6402
picocell delivers 300 Mbps LTE speeds with carrier aggregation,
doubling capacity in a tablet-sized footprint.
Ericsson's comprehensive range of small cell and
carrier Wi-Fi solutions ensures that mobile operators can address
any mobile broadband coverage and capacity requirement today and in
the future. High-speed data connectivity within enterprises is
essential to support Vodafone customers continued drive for
productivity and flexibility. Deployments and upgrades are simple,
addressing growing capacity and coverage requirements. The user
experience is consistent wherever they go and the indoor network
evolves in lockstep with the outdoor network.
In 2014, Vodafone and Ericsson agreed to closely
collaborate to pioneer the deployment of such innovative
in-building cellular solutions.
