Huawei backs Dubai Small Cells summit

DUBAI, January 20, 2016

Huawei, a global ICT solutions provider, has signed up as Diamond Sponsor of this year’s SCWS MENA 2016 technology conference taking place in Dubai, UAE on January 18 and 19 at Conrad Hotel.

“Small Cell” is an umbrella term for operator-controlled, short range mobile base-stations used to complement mobile coverage from larger macro-cell towers. As mobile penetration continues to climb across the region, Small Cells are essential in connecting smart city applications between devices and people, as well as helping telecom operators to achieve revenue growth by addressing the challenges of surging data traffic across indoor and outdoor environments.

“As customers continue to seek connectivity anytime and anywhere, small cell technology will be able to fulfill this increasing demand for mobile coverage capacity requirement in high-density area, which traditional solutions have not been able to handle. Small cells are strong enough to address increased data traffic within complex vicinities such as stadiums, shopping malls, traffic hubs, aiding in an improved user experience,” said Marvin Chen, vice president of Huawei Small Cell Product Line.

“Today small cells are also being used to pioneer value-added services such as indoor geo-navigation, traffic analysis and more engaging digital marketing platforms. They truly are part of today’s smart city services.”

Globally Huawei has launched multiband, multi-mode small cells and has won more than 180 small cell contracts. As a flagship Huawei small cell solution, the company’s LampSite offering has already been deployed in public areas like the popular Dubai Mall, with connectivity complaint rates reduced by around 70 per cent.

With small cells’ proven, flexible, and advanced technology, Huawei plans to help operators build Smart Cities that will benefit local residents across the region, a statement said. – TradeArabia News Service
