Airvana Boosts Femtocell Data Speeds Five-Fold

Mar 23, 2009, 9:16 AM by Eric M. Zeman

Airvana has created new femtocell technology that increases in-home data coverage and in-hone data speeds. In Airvana's tests, it found that it could provide a 2Mbps connection to an EVDO data network consistently via its femtocell, which is about five times what users typically experience in the real world on cellular macro networks. Airvana's femtocell is called HubBub, and it provides EVDO Rev. A coverage indoors. No carriers have announced plans to offer the HubBub, but it is compatible with Alltel, Sprint and Verizon's CDMA networks.
