Roam Where You Want To! New Motorola Technologies Break the Barrier
Between Home and Wireless Phone Services - Jan 3, 2006 08:00 AM (PR
Newswire)
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola, Inc. (NYSE:MOT)
today broke down the barrier between traditional home and wireless
phone service. The innovative new Motorola Residential Seamless
Mobility Gateway (RSG) lets consumers use the same mobile device --
and the same number -- as they roam in and out of their homes(1).
Creating an Innovative Home Communications Experience
The Motorola RSG family of products packs powerful communication
features for your home. The product includes an 802.11b/g wireless
access point, a four-port router, and a built-in Voice-over-IP
adapter. This technology allows the RSG to run your home network,
power standard telephones, and act as a hotspot for your mobile phone.
Further, the Motorola RSG can seamlessly transfer voice calls between
the home wireless network (WLAN) and the cellular network without
interrupting the call, when paired with a dual-mode handset (DMH) and
connected to a network and service that supports this
feature. Dual-mode handsets are mobile devices that can access both
cellular and in-home wireless networks.
Motorola RSG products give consumers freedom for personal
communications: The products eliminate the hassle of finding a good
reception zone in the home, and of managing separate bills, individual
calling plans, or "bonus" minutes. Consumers can simply dial a number,
and the intelligence in the gateway will automatically route the call
to the best available network or service option.
Motorola is showcasing the RSG series of products this week at the
2006 International CES trade show (Las Vegas, NV), Central Hall, Booth
#8545.
Additional features of the Motorola RSG Series include:
-- Single-Number Access - Calls made from a dual-mode mobile handset in
the home enable consumers to reduce cellular bills.
-- Home Network Connectivity - Access your high-speed data connection from
anywhere in the home with an 802.11 b/g wireless access point and a
four-port wired router. For mobile voice calls, use your home wireless
network to compensate for cellular service "dead-spots" within the
home.
-- Voice Prioritization - Ensure high-quality voice calls while accessing
the Internet.
-- Portability - Easily plugs into any broadband connection.
-- Rich Digital Phone Features - Caller ID, call waiting, three-way
calling, and call forwarding.
-- Multiple lines - Allows for a shared "family" number as well as
individual mobile and landline numbers.
-- Power Management - Optimizes the battery life of users' handset through
802.11e U-APSD, radio resource management, and 802.11k measurement
pilot.
-- Advanced Security - Protect your voice calls and your data with 802.11i
security and pre-authentication, IPSEC/PPTP/L2TP NAT tunneling (for VPN
pass-through), storage for X.509 device certificate and operator public
key as well as mobile pairing.
