ABOUT XG TECHNOLOGY
XG TECHNOLOGY'S BUSINESS
Based in Florida, USA, xG Technology has developed innovative
technologies that the directors believe can change the
building blocks, capabilities and economics of the
communications industry. Its patented technologies can be
applied to almost any type of communication including voice,
data or video in wired or wireless form.
As its first vertical application, xG Technology has designed
a mobile VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) base station and
handset product line. Branded as xMax, these products are for
use by regional carriers (internet service providers,
competitive local exchange carriers and entrepreneurial
parties)
seeking to deliver mobile Internet Protocol services directly
to consumers without using the incumbent circuit switched or
coaxial cable networks. Future releases of the xMax product
line will expand from mobile VoIP to offer integrated video
and data applications.
MARKET AND COMPETITION
There is a wide variety of wireless technologies in the
marketplace. The Directors believe that the key issue keeping
these technologies from achieving greater success is the price
versus performance of existing options. xMax changes this
price/performance relationship by enabling the delivery of
mobile IP services with less infrastructure using low-cost and
readily available unlicensed radio spectrum.
xG Technology believes
that xMax is a viable solution for mobile VoIP for a number
of reasons:
- xMax is an IP solution rather than a
circuit switched solution; this is a prerequisite for handling
the VoIP application;
- xMax delivers high speed data in the order of Mbps rather
than Kbps, which is essential for supporting large numbers of
subscribers;
- xMax has a low latency physical layer, resulting in high
network efficiency;
- xMax's signal profile also allows for improved
range/coverage and better signal penetration, which is
essential for maintaining call session reliability; and
- although this feature is not central to the VoIP application
itself, xG Flash Signal's ability to deliver wireless signals
with far less RF output power than conventional applications
means that wireless VoIP handsets will show improved battery
life over other solutions. .
