LTE chipmaker Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS) announced
that Askey Computer Corporation, leading provider of wireless
communication devices, has selected its Cassiopeia LTE-Advanced
platform to design broadband data devices for the global market.
The first product to be delivered by Askey is an indoor CPE (model
number RTL0012W).
“We chose Sequans’ Cassiopeia platform because of its high
performance capabilities, including highly flexible carrier
aggregation and LTE Cat 4/6 expansion,” said Alan Kao, VP of sales
and marketing, Askey. “Cassiopeia gives us the flexibility to
design and build CPE with unique features, customized for target
markets.”
Askey is using Sequans’ Cassiopeia LTE-Advanced platform,
which is 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.
“Askey’s new CPE is an elegant, powerful device and we are proud
to see Cassiopeia inside,” said Hugues Waldburger, VP of Sequans’
Broadband business unit. “The new Askey CPE is state-of-the-art,
