LTE chipmaker Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE:SQNS) announced that Baicells Technologies, maker of single-mode LTE broadband wireless access solutions, has selected its Cassiopeia LTE-Advanced platform for two new CPE (customer premises equipment) devices for the global market. The new devices, one providing LTE Cat 4 throughput and the other LTE Cat 6 throughput, will be part of the Baicells Atom product line of indoor and outdoor CPE.

“We tested several Sequans-powered CPE already on the market and became convinced that Sequans provides the best single-mode LTE-Advanced chipset solution available, and one that meets our exacting requirements for Atom-branded products,” said Yongfeng Zhong, VP, Baicells Technologies. “Sequans’ Cassiopeia platform is powerful, and its dual-carrier aggregation capabilities are uniquely flexible, allowing us to design and build CPE with unique features, including powerful capabilities for streaming and expansion.”

The LTE-Advanced chip inside the new Baicells CPEs is Sequans’ Cassiopeia LTE-Advanced platform, compliant with 3GPP Release 10 specifications. Cassiopeia supports highly flexible dual-carrier aggregation that allows the combination of any two carriers of any size up to 20 MHz each, contiguous or non-contiguous, inter-band or intra-band. Cassiopeia also supports other Release 10 enhancements such as new MIMO schemes, enhanced inter-cell interference coordination (eICIC) schemes for heterogeneous networks (HetNets), and improvements to eMBMS (evolved multimedia broadcast multicast service) or LTE broadcast. Cassiopeia features Sequans’ advanced receiver technology for improved performance. Cassiopeia can support additional optional features, including envelope tracking and secure boot, at customer request.

“We are pleased to provide Cassiopeia technology to Baicells for these advanced LTE products,” said Hugues Waldburger, VP of Sequans’ Home and Mobile Router Business Unit. “Baicells has a unique mission to provide LTE solutions for broadband access with less expense and more reliability, and with better coverage than Wi-Fi.”
