RadioFrame Networks Announces Collapsed Base Station Subsystems (BSS) Network Demonstration at 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona



    RadioFrame Networks, Inc., a leader in IP-based picocell and
    femtocell solutions for the mobile marketplace, will showcase its next
    generation of Radio Access technology solutions at the 3GSM World
    Congress conference in Barcelona this upcoming February 12-15.

    The RadioFrame(R) solutions address the acute need of mobile
    network operators (MNOs) to efficiently and effectively improve
    wireless coverage inside of office buildings and homes. RadioFrame's
    femtocells and picocells allow MNOs to dramatically increase the
    number of base stations in their networks in an efficient and
    cost-effective manner.

    Leveraging the company's current IP-based radio solutions,
    RadioFrame's collapsed BSS architecture is designed to provide the
    services and connectivity of base transceiver stations and base
    station controllers. This architecture collapses the functions of much
    of the radio management into RadioFrame's picocell and femtocell base
    stations at the edge of the network allowing a virtually unlimited
    number of RadioFrame(R) base stations to connect into current network
    architecture as well as newer network technologies such as IMS
    networks as they are deployed. Additionally, because it is an
    integrated part of the network, RadioFrame's solution can support
    important functions such as handover and frequency planning while
    enabling a "plug and play" customer based deployment model.

    "This is a major evolution of the way wireless networks are
    operated today considering operators who had 30,000 base stations in
    their entire networks will soon be managing that many base stations in
    a single city," said RadioFrame Networks President and Chief Executive
    Officer Jeff Brown. "Being competitive in the fixed mobile convergence
    battle requires incorporating femtocells and picocells into wireless
    networks. And while the physical size and complexity of femtocells and
    picocells are far less than that of macrocells, the sheer number of
    connections requires a reworking of the current core network topology.
    RadioFrame Networks has been working on a collapsed BSS architecture
    that will seamlessly address this concern for sometime. The
    marketplace is clearly in need of this solution -- the time is now --
    and we are excited to be bringing this technology to 3GSM in
    Barcelona."

    Earlier this week RadioFrame announced the introduction of its
    OmniRadio(TM) Processor that is at the core of RadioFrame's
    OmniRadio(TM) Platform, which will be used in their GSM and UMTS
    femtocell and picocell products. In the future, RadioFrame intends to
    offer femtocell products for other technologies such as WiMAX and LTE.

    In developing its collapsed BSS architecture, RadioFrame has
    partnered with United Kingdom-based Zynetix. Zynetix is an innovator
    of core networking and switching systems for mobile networks and has
    developed one of the leading GSM softswitches on the market.

    "Zynetix has developed the next generation of highly integrated,
    compact network switching solutions and RadioFrame's concept fits
    perfectly with our view that winning solutions will be aimed at
    facilitating the evolution of more streamlined networks that rely on
    fewer yet smarter network elements," said Andy Odgers at Zynetix.

    RadioFrame Networks will be demonstrating its collapsed BSS
    solution in Hall 1, Stand 1C06 at the 3GSM World Congress. Zynetix
    will also be exhibiting in Hall 2, Stand 2E66.
