Centurion Wireless Technologies Unveils First Multi-Band Antenna Featuring 3G For In-Building Wireless Systems

date: July 1, 2002

Centurion Wireless Technologies, manufacturers of antennas and power products for wireless communications, today announced the availability of the Multi-Band Microsphere.

The Multi-Band Microsphere is designed to enhance mobile phone connectivity inside buildings. It is the first antenna to provide simultaneous, omnidirectional coverage in all major global mobile communications frequency bands including AMPS, GSM, DCS, PCS and UMTS.

"As carriers begin to deploy 3G coupled with existing wireless services, there is a growing need to support all wireless communications standards via a single antenna," said Monty Rohde, VP of Engineering for Centurion. "The Multi-Band Microsphere is available today to support all the major traditional frequencies as well as those beginning to be put into use."

The Multi-Band Microsphere offers the broadest range of indoor coverage for five frequency bands covering Cellular at 806-894 MHz, GSM at 880-960 MHz, PCS at 1850-1990 MHz, DCS at 1710-1880 MHz and UMTS at 1990-2170 MHz erasing the need for multiple in-building antenna installations. The antenna offers peak gains of 2.7 to 4.5 dBi. The antenna can be mounted directly on any ceiling and its extremely small form factor ensures that once installed it is practically invisible.

The Multi-Band Microsphere provides carriers with an upgradeable path to 3G as these services are rolled out. In the interim, it will allow wireless carriers operating on a single frequency band to create multi-carrier networks with other service providers that accommodate the full range of different services in use by mobile subscribers. By deploying the Multi-Band Microsphere, carriers can the share costs of providing in-building wireless services while enhancing their network efficiency.
