Economic Downturn Leads Carriers to Reduce Capex Spending
In financially challenging times, when service revenues dip due to reduced end-user confidence, a standard tactic is to cut back on capital expenditure, which boosts operating margins and thereby profits. This tactic was used in the dot.com/3G economic downturn earlier this decade. more

Security Alarm Backhaul is Going Wireless
Traditionally, security alarm systems used fixed telephone lines to pass information from the security alarm panel to a central monitoring facility. Today, however, that communication is increasingly being delegated to a digital cellular link. ABI Research forecasts that the 2007 number of just fewer than 2.5 million wireless security alarm connections will increase to more than 7.5 million in 2013. more

3-4 Year Investment Before Profiting From Femtocells
The femtocell industry is at a crossroads. Carriers are directing some of their attention away from the technical aspects of the solution and more towards the fundamental questions around how they can make money out of the technology and what their go-to-market strategies should look like if they are to obtain the best results. more
Local Wi-Fi Service with 3G Cellular used as the Backhaul
Moovera Networks has announced the availability of an outdoor access point and router that combines Wi-Fi access with cellular backhaul including 3G UMTS/HSPA and WiMAX. The Moovbox F Series Fixed Broadband Gateway is a weatherproof device that leverages wide area networks (WANs) for connectivity rather than wireline services such as DSL or cable. The Moovbox F Series supports a wide range of plug-and-play mobile data cards enabling quick deployment of outdoor Wi-Fi zones wherever there is high-speed carrier network coverage. more

3G to Capture 30% of M2M Market, but don't Ignore Municipal Wi-Fi"
Cellular Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications first started in the era of analog cellular connectivity, and have largely shifted now to 2G GPRS and CDMA connectivity. Certain M2M applications can benefit from the higher data rates than 3G cellular offers, and it is tempting to assume that all M2M communications will be 3G eventually. more
