Ositech Communications Inc. today announced the release of its exclusive
CellFlex technology. This technology enables a laptop user with a compatible Dual Mode cellular phone and access to a digital data capable network to connect/access the Internet from wherever a voice cellular call can be made.
Choosing a wireless data solution up until now has meant a choice of either a digital or an analog solution. With either option the users are limited to the coverage area for the selected solution and may not be able to make a cellular data connection as they move around. Ositech has broken the barrier by making both solutions available in one single interface. Only Ositech’s
CellFlex
technology provides Dual Mode Data support in a single solution, giving the user the freedom to connect from both digital as well as analog coverage areas. The auto detection and connection enables the data call to proceed without any user intervention. Wherever a cellular voice call can be made, now data connection is possible. With
CellFlex
a user now has total wireless data coverage, making Any time, Anywhere connectivity/Internet access a reality.
"We believe that the barriers for wider adoption of wireless data are coming down", said Justin
Greavette, Strategic Business Development Manager at Ositech. Cellular data connection throughputs are increasing and Service Providers are offering airtime price packages, which combine the voice and data minutes together at competitive rates. With
CellFlex, ease of use concerns are a thing of the past.
"Corporate America has been somewhat reluctant to adopt wide area cellular technology for their mobile workforce. With the advances made with
CellFlex, cellular wireless data is ready for corporate adoption", said Walter Hare, Ositech’s Product Marketing Manager. "CellFlex is the result of valuable feedback from our business customers. We took their suggestions as a challenge, and provided a solution that addresses their concerns," he added.
Wireless Cellular Data Products incorporating this technology will be added shortly to Ositech’s TRUMPCARD family of products and offered via the various company channels. These products initially will support handsets from NOKIA and MOTOROLA, while support for other handset brands will follow.
