Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) Overview

SOMA subscriber gateways and mobile stations are non-line of sight, advanced computing platforms that eliminate the need for subscribers to purchase voice (VoIP) gateways and home networking routers. Subscribers can self-install these self-provisioning units in a matter of minutes, giving them instant access to broadband services—and service providers instant access to revenue.

This ease of provisioning allows service providers to:

Significantly reduce customer support costs
Minimize truck rolls
Reach profitability faster
Deploy new services quickly
Deliver over-the-air upgrades with no downtime
Ensure a top-quality subscriber broadband experience.

The SOMA family of CPE units includes the following.

The SOMAport™ 300 series wireless broadband gateways provide high-speed Internet access, POTS-quality VoIP, home networking, fax and other web-based services to residential and small business customers.

The SOMAport™ 400 series wireless broadband gateways cost-effectively deliver a full suite of revenue-quality voice, broadband data and video services to residential and small business customers in high-density urban areas or remote rural ones.

The MS-G100 mobile station is a multi-function subscriber gateway that serves as an integral part of SOMA’s complete FlexMAX Mobile WiMAX System. Designed for indoor, non-line of sight applications, the MS-G100 features a sleek design and built-in router that supports multiple simultaneous broadband services.

The MS-P100 personal PC Expresscard is a multi-function subscriber gateway that enables network and broadband capabilities for individual PC users. When used with a laptop computer, the MS-P100 provides greater flexibility and mobility.

The MS-E100 mobile station is a multifunction outdoor subscriber gateway designed for use in multi-tenant dwellings some distance from a SOMA ABS-1000 base station. It requires minimal installation, accelerating the deployment process and further reducing costs for service providers.
