Small cell technology is starting to shape up as a very attractive next-generation income source in the LTE system market. While many small cell vendors are fiercely competing with each other, some Korean vendors are drawing attentions from many operators, with their extensive experience in meeting comprehensive and demanding technical requirements of Korean telecom operators.

Juni-Korea introduced its three main products at MWC 2015: home small cell (JL-514), enterprise small cell AP (JL-620) and outdoor small cell (JL-740).

The home/enterprise small cell products are designed to provide a high speed LTE data service indoors, like home and enterprise office. The outdoor small cell solutions are intended to enhance the coverage capacity of the conventional Macrocells or a small hotspot coverage.

What is interesting with Juni-Korea is that it does not supply small cell gateway (GW) itself, but instead provides compatibility between its small cell equipment and the GW systems from other leading vendors, that are already used in operators' LTE networks. 

Serigio Domingo, Sales Director of Juni-Korea, said, "We have already completed interoperability tests with the small cell gateway system of major LTE vendors such as Ericsson, Samsung, NSN, Huawei. We have been recognized for our excellent product reliability and compatibility, by many operators. And we have supplied our small cell products to Korea Telecom in Korea, Telefonica in Latin America, and Telstra in Australia. Currently, we are checking with US Cellular in the US for possible sales opportunities."
