Verizon Wireless has now released its very own femtocell product, the Verizon Network Extender so as to enhance in-home cell phone reception. This device costs $249 up-front, and the good news is that there is no monthly fee.
The Verizon Network Extender creates a single-cell mobile network for use in a home or building, and then pushes users calls and data server back out to Verizon, by means of an existing broadband Internet connection. You will need at least 300 Kbps of upstream bandwidth to use this device. Please note that the system does not support EV-DO data, Verizon’s V Cast or location-based services. You have to be within about 15 feet of the Network Extender to set up an initial connection, but after that, the femtocell can cover about 5,000 square feet.
The Verizon Network Extender is now up for sale via Verizon Wireless’s Web site for $249.99. The product competes with T-Mobile’s @Home service and Sprint’s Airave. Click here to know more about the product and scroll down for the video.
