Better mobile phone reception in your home

5 January 2006 by axxxr
If you have a poor signal strength around your home then help is at hand.New company Spotwave has developed a system called the Zen that works intelligently to ensure you get crystal clear reception throughout your home.

Responding to surging demand, Spotwave Wireless,the leader in indoor wireless coverage solutions, today unveiled the company’s first offering for the professional wireless user market: Zen an intelligent wireless coverage product that dramatically improves indoor wireless reception for spaces up to 2500 square feet.

Designed for home and small offices, Zen improves indoor signal strength of cell phones, PDAs and other mobile devices across the entire PCS band (1900 MHz).The result is clear voice quality with maximum data throughput for cell phones, PDAs and 3G enabled devices. It is an ideal solution for professional wireless subscribers frustrated by the inability to use wireless devices indoors due to poor signal strength.

"Prosumers are becoming increasingly dependent on wireless devices in their day-to-day lives and as a result, are demanding more reliable access to their wireless services," says Spotwave CEO, Bill Carlin.

"Unfortunately, many find themselves having to walk outside or to a window just to use their phones. Dropped calls or missing calls altogether while indoors is even more frustrating. To add to this, as wireless broadband services become more popular, users are discovering that it’s the strength of their signal that determines the speed of their connection. With this increased dependency comes a corresponding demand for quality wireless signal indoors."

Spotwave is the market leader in designing and deploying carrier-approved, commercial-grade coverage systems designed for medium-to-large spaces (25,000 square feet and higher). Zen incorporates key, patented technology from the Spotwave commercial products to ensure both the best performance for the user while protecting the integrity of the carrier’s network.

The Zen product is the only network-protecting, intelligent coverage system available for small office home office (SOHO) and residential space. It uses patented technology from Spotwave commercial products to constantly monitor indoor signal strength – preventing oscillation and harmful interference while ensuring the best signal possible for users.

While "dumb" boosters can create interference that reduces user performance and can degrade network capacity, Zen’s intelligent power management actually preserves – and enhances the performance of PCS networks. It also emits very low power to cell phones and other wireless devices, extending the phone’s battery life while it improves signal.

"We are delivering a superior solution that’s affordable, simple to use and provides the best coverage possible for prosumers dependent on wireless devices," says Sam Baumel, AVP Sales and Marketing, Spotwave. "At the same time, we’re providing a product that protects the integrity of the carrier’s network while adapting to changes in the wireless environment. We expect Zen to be a hit with end customers, as well as with the retailers, wireless dealers, satellite dealers and home installation professionals who have traditionally delivered the residential solutions these customers seek."

Pricing and availability:

The Zen product will be available for purchase in the second quarter of 2006 through the company’s website and via retail and channel partners. The MSRP for the Zen PCS system is $399. More information is available on the company website at .
