Spotwave Z1900 Intelligent Wireless Signal Booster Now Shipping for Consumers
Indoor Wireless Leader Ensures Signal-Challenged Subscribers Can Now Use Their Cell Phones and PDAs at Home
OTTAWA, Oct. 24 // -- Dropped cell calls, and slow mobile downloads are a thing of the past for wireless subscribers on a PCS network, thanks to the newest product from Spotwave Wireless, an established provider of indoor wireless coverage solutions. Z1900, the company's intelligent wireless repeater for residential use, seamlessly brings the outdoor signal inside for users at home, enabling them to use their cell phones and other wireless devices where they previously could not.
Using patented network-friendly technology from the company's enterprise product line, Spotwave has solved the problems associated with poor coverage at home and in small offices. Designed to be set up in less than 30 minutes, and priced at $399, the product can improve coverage in homes and small offices up to 2,500 square feet - or, about 15 cents a square foot.
Field tested in hundreds of homes across North America, early customers and dealers are clearly impressed with the Z1900 product. California-based Sandy Pringle is just such a customer. "Both my wife and I rely on our cell phones for work, but we've had limited coverage at home," said Mr. Pringle. "We needed to be accessible at all times so we responded quickly when we heard the Z1900 was on the market. I'm tremendously impressed with this product - setup was a snap and within minutes I had solid reliable coverage through my entire house. Now we're reachable when we need to be."
The wireless channel is also keen for a Spotwave solution to offer their SOHO customers. "Spotwave provides the ideal solution for us to offer our customers at home," said Doug McGregor, Principal of FirstComm, an Ottawa-based wireless VAR. "It's a cost effective, easily implemented solution for people dependent on their wireless devices, and a perfect complement to our existing offerings."
Designed for home and small offices, Z1900 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 wireless subscribers frustrated by the inability to use wireless devices indoors due to poor signal strength. It also provides a compelling offering for wireless VARs and Home Automation Resellers to provide to their existing customer base.
The Z1900 product is the only network-protecting, intelligent coverage system available for small office home office (SOHO) and residential spaces. It uses patented technology from Spotwave enterprise products to constantly monitor indoor signal strength - preventing oscillation and harmful interference while ensuring the best signal possible for users. While "dumb" boosters and amplifiers can create interference that reduces user performance and can degrade network capacity, the Z1900'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.
