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.
