Femtocell Market Update: Slow but Steady Progress
Ovum, March 2010, Pages: 23
Femtocells took a break from the limelight in 2009 as operator trials took place behind closed doors. They are now reappearing in the public domain, but this is not a sign of an impending rapid increase in uptake. Rather it is a sign of increasing technical maturity and growing comfort among operators about the technology and business case - with some important reservations attached.
Scope of the report:
- Assessment of the business case for femtocells.
- Analysis of the effect of competition on operator uptake.
- Details of the cost issues surrounding femtocells.
Highlights of the report:
Femtocell deployments are to continue slowly for the next two to three years. Operators have been careful to test the impact of femtocells on macronetworks, and this will continue. More launches and trials will not change that, as no two networks are the same and so much is at stake.
The evidence of applications being demonstrated today shows that we are a long way from seeing applications on femtocells. Furthermore, their revenue-generating potential is muted.
Femtocell technology has matured during the past 18 months, but operators will be in no hurry to test their impact on their own networks. Therefore, this maturity will have minimal impact on the speed of deployment.
Reasons to Purchase:
- Discover how trial activity in the market is expected to develop in 2010 and beyond.
- Explore the alternatives to femtocells.
- Study the femtocell business case timeline.
