Alcatel-Lucent UMTS BTS Portfolio
After absorbing Nortel’s UTRAN solution, Alcatel-Lucent continues to upgrade the offer with new capabilities and new information. More importantly, new RF details highlight the portfolio’s capabilities better than ever before. (3/3/2008)

  
 Price: $495

Ericsson RBS 3000 Node B Portfolio
Ericsson’s Node B portfolio looks much like it did six months ago. Yet, the addition of transmit diversity and new customer references suggest that the products are resonating with customers – despite a potentially confusing array of options. (3/3/2008)

  
 Price: $495

Huawei 3800 Series Node B Portfolio
Huawei was one of the first vendors in the market to support remote radio heads and its recent momentum (pulling in major Tier 1 wins) is impressive. Yet, limited portfolio breadth and a lack of recent portfolio upgrades could worry operators. (3/3/2008)

  
 Price: $495

Nokia Siemens Networks Node B Portfolio
With an upgraded offer announced for this year, it’s clear that NSN has settled on the Flexi as its go-to-market Node B. Strong RF and scalability make it a logical choice, but a “one size fits all” strategy may not work for all operators. (3/3/2008)

  
 Price: $495

Nokia Siemens Networks - Node B Portfolio (Siemens Legacy)
Siemens’ contribution to the NSN Node B portfolio comes with a strong commitment to remote radio assets and robust power output. The ascendancy of the Flexi platform with the portfolio, however, severely marginalizes its position going forward. (3/3/2008)

  • Buying Criteria
    • Capacity
      • The quantity of calls possible via a range of base stations, both minimal and fully provisioned. Determined by the number of transceivers and the number of sectors.
    • Coverage
      • Maximum size possible for a cell sector footprint. Determined by transmit power and receive sensitivity. Also includes consideration of available frequency ranges.
    • Site Deployment Flexibility
      • Deployment flexibility considers the economic impact of a BTS solution in terms of environmental factors, space requirements, backhaul capabilities, and efficiency.
    • Technology Evolution and Market Position
      • How has the vendor addressed evolution of 3GPP standards releases; how has the vendor addressed HSDPA evolution.
