March 23, 2010, Las Vegas – GENBAND Inc., a market-leading developer of next-generation media, session and security gateway solutions, today announced that it will participate in Femtozone 2010 at CTIA Wireless and demonstrate the latest advances in femtocell gateway security and interoperability along with the company’s entire femtocell gateway solution.  Dr. Natasha Tamaskar, GENBAND’s vice president of product marketing, will present ‘Femto Interoperability’ at 12 noon on Tuesday, March 23 in Central Hall 3762.
Femtozone 2010, hosted by the Femto Forum, takes center stage at this year’s CTIA with operators, vendors, analysts and other industry bodies to address opportunities facing the femtocell market’s move to the mass market. With femtocell deployment taking place on three continents, Femtozone 2010 provides a one-stop shop for updates on the femtocell ecosystem development.
“Interoperability will usher in the momentum needed for mass market appeal, ease of use and wide spread adoption for both service providers and consumers,” said Dr. Tamaskar. “We look forward to discussing the ongoing roadmap for developing a true, open femtocell ecosystem based on standards and interoperability. Our standards-based and interoperable femtocell gateways form the bridge for femtocell traffic into the mobile core, while delivering the vital security tunnels necessary to protect the network. With our femtocell ecosystem partners, we are participating in two major live femtocell deployments and at least 12 active femtocell trials with tier 1 operators worldwide.”
GENBAND will highlight its market leading femtocell gateway components, the G9™ Converged Gateway and S2™ Security Gateway, at the Femtozone product showcase (Central Hall 3762) as well as at the GENBAND booth (3132). GENBAND’s interoperability among best-of-breed femtocell controller and access point providers will be demonstrated along with the company’s commitment to an open, flexible and standards-based approach for developing the femtocell market opportunity.
