About CellMax:
CellMax Technologies develops and markets ultra-high efficiency base station antennas for mobile networks. Our technology allows mobile operators to reduce power consumption in their radio networks by up to 30%. The unique patented antenna technology from CellMax is specially designed for the higher frequency bands such as GSM 1800/1900, UMTS, LTE and WiMax. Thanks to the elimination of internal losses in the antenna via a revolutionary patented design, the technology provides 96% energy efficiency compared to standard antennas available that provides typically 60-65% energy efficiency.
The superior efficiency of CellMax antennas doubles the radiated power (EIRP) and received signal to the base station, hence provides an increase of geographical coverage by up to 40% versus standard antennas available. Higher EIRP also provides an increase of the net traffic in the network.
In addition to numerous international system vendors, CellMax customers include 2G, 3G and 4G mobile operators in for example India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Philippines, Poland, Sweden, Thailand, UK and USA. To learn more about CellMax, visit http://www.cellmax.se.
