Ubiquisys and Motive Team to Manage Femtocell Networks of Millions
SWINDON, England--Ubiquisys Ltd, the leading developer of intelligent ZoneGate 3G access points for the residential market, today announced that the Ubiquisys Femtocell Management Agent has been successfully verified for Baseline TR-069 Interoperability with Motive Inc.'s Home Device Manager(TM) through the MotiveSmart(TM) Verification Program. Motive is a leading provider of service management software that helps broadband and mobile network operators deliver and manage a new generation of voice, video and data services to consumers. Achieving this important milestone ensures that the two companies can successfully deliver a comprehensive system for the central device management of large-scale femtocell deployments.
Ubiquisys has long argued that DSL-type management systems based on the TR-069 standard are the best method to manage millions of residential femtocells. The combination of the Ubiquisys Femtocell Management Agent and Motive's Home Device Manager means that operators can centrally manage their femtocell population, ensuring that the consumers get a genuinely simple experience.
Effective central management complements the Ubiquisys "zero-touch" installation, where a consumer simply attaches the femtocell to power and broadband and the device then self-configures.
"Whilst femtocells are complex pieces of mobile telecoms equipment, they are also first and foremost consumer devices and as such they have to be simple enough to be installed and managed by the average user," said Will Franks, CTO and Co-Founder, Ubiquisys. "We spent a lot of time and money building the ZoneGate with no buttons so that all the user is required to do is plug it in. Our work with Motive is a key component of this and bringing to bear their considerable experience from the management of broadband devices has proven invaluable."
"We have a great deal of experience working with broadband and mobile service providers to enable zero-touch provisioning and central management of large networks of consumer devices," said Neil Dholakia, CTO of Motive. "Femtocells represent a significant new application for our technology and we are delighted to be working with Ubiquisys who are acknowledged as a leader in this exciting space."
