Motorola and TeliaSonera Denmark Announce Live Market Trial of Motorola's 3GPP Compliant UMA Solution
Motorola, Inc.
(NYSE: MOT), today announced that following a successful initial six-month
trial of its Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) solution, TeliaSonera Denmark is
moving to phase two of the trial project -- making calls with Motorola A910
handset over the first 3GPP compliant UMA system in an operational network
environment.
The market trial is an important step forward in delivering Motorola's
vision of Seamless Mobility incorporating products and services from across
the organization. The complete, fully tested UMA solution from Motorola
includes network infrastructure, A910 handsets, and integration and deployment
services. In addition, Motorola is developing UMA-based connected home
solutions to enable seamless access around the home.
For TeliaSonera customers, the UMA solution will offer lower-cost mobile
calls with better coverage in the home as well as a seamless mobile experience
using a single device, single number, contacts book, voicemail and bill...
"We are very pleased that the first phase of the technical trial in
Denmark has proven that users find the system simple to use and attractive in
terms of quality of service. In the next phase of the trial we will dig
further into the quality and functionality and focus on how easy it is for the
user to install the UMA-phone system in their home," Peter Bredgaard,
president of Telia Networks, says.
"With UMA, operators can offer subscribers a cost-effective, seamless
communication experience. Together with TeliaSonera we are delighted to
combine our expertise in mobile handsets and network convergence to continue
testing our commercial UMA solution, further demonstrating our leadership in
Seamless Mobility," said Jose Figueroa, corporate vice president and regional
manager, Motorola Networks EMEA.
Motorola's UMA solution, now being deployed by TeliaSonera Denmark,
supports standards including Bluetooth(TM) and WiFi and allows the use of
handsets from multiple vendors. Motorola and TeliaSonera plan to continue
working together to assess the future potential of a converged network.
In addition to TeliaSonera, nine other European operators are currently
trialing Motorola's UMA solution.
