The top three revenue contributing products are discussed below
Femtocell: The femtocells segment occupies the maximum share in the global small cell market owing to the high adoption of smart computing devices and increase in smartphone applications for availing value-added services (VAS). Some developed countries such as the US, Japan, South Korea, and countries in Western Europe have been the major markets for femtocells because of the high penetration of mobile and broadband connections.
“Vendors in the small cell market are increasingly promoting the adoption of femtocells as these help network operators provide better coverage. Subscribers have been adopting femtocells to reduce call charges and experience better data transfer speeds for video downloading and gaming,” says Abhishek Sharma, an industry analyst at Technavio for research on machine to machine and connected devices.
The companies are also trying to explore the untapped market of mobile users. Moreover, network operators in some countries are giving away femtocells free of cost to customers to increase customer retention by minimizing poor connectivity.
Microcell: The microcell segment, allows telecom providers to install low-cost solutions to enable high-speed capacity solutions that work with the existing cell phone systems. Technologies like 4G LTE are a good example of companies using millimeter wave based small cell systems to permit for higher cell backhaul and outright tower bypassing systems when possible.
Metrocell: Operators deploy metrocells for public use in streets and thickly populated urban areas. Such extensive use has led to a wide range of new wireless products both from established and upcoming firms. The network operators prefer the use of wireline network due to its higher throughput and availability. It is expected that most the last few hundred meters of metrocell backhaul will become wireless.
