AVAILABLE PRODUCT ASSESSMENTS

Alcatel-Lucent 9000 Series
Alcatel-Lucent’s LTE portfolio is strongest in its focus on small cells, where recent wins attest to its potential to penetrate new accounts. But rivals can claim greater numbers of LTE deployments and, in many areas, greater product performance. (2/7/2013)

Nokia Siemens Networks Flexi BTS Family
NSN has made impressive gains in penetrating the global LTE (and TD-LTE) market, but the way it positions its two base station platforms relative to each other isn’t always clearly communicated and could confuse operators. (2/7/2013)
| Client Access |

Samsung Smart MBS
Samsung’s LTE eNodeB portfolio is scalable and flexible, with impressive capabilities offered through an optional IT server. Its biggest disadvantage may be its limited market share, but that’s growing; some top vendors can’t say the same. (5/6/2013)

ZTE ZXSDR 8000 Family
ZTE has found success differentiating itself with strength in TD-LTE, but in the overall LTE space, rivals too often steal the spotlight with newer products, ambitious innovations and marquis deployment references that ZTE can’t match. (2/7/2013)
