Re: [asterisk-users] Femtocell to VoIP?
Steve, Can you recommend any 3G femtocell to VoIP manufacturers? I'm coming up very dry. OpenBTS sounds like it would work, but is way too expensive to roll out to residential homes.

OpenBTS sounds like it would work, but is way too expensive to roll out to residential homes. Pretty much all Femtocells use 3G locally and send stuff back over VoIP (in some form or other). In the UK Vodafone sell a 3G femtocell (which has an internal 2G radio too, to ensure it's being used in the UK). ATT sell their own. Try contacting PicoChip or Ubiquisys who both have femtocells.

Re: [asterisk-users] Femtocell to VoIP?
I have done an OpenBTS research and try project and OpenBTS is working great. A complete set to roll out OpenBTS is not cheap but as far as I know all femtocell kind of solutions need serious investments and OpenBTS seems to be the cheapest among them. Asterisk is actually one of the lego pieces the OpenBTS solution is made of.
