He concluded saying, “We are proud of successfully demonstrating compliance with the most up-to-date quality system requirements. This is further proof that our organization is committed to sustaining the highest levels of quality in the industry and continual process improvement at all levels.”
 
The company recently made headlines for launching a 2G base station (BTS) designed for use in rural communities in developing markets. According to the company, this new The "EasyGSM BTS" is industry's first All IP-based compact BTS specifically designed for rural areas.
 
The BTS represents another innovative product designed and developed in close collaboration with Vodafone (News - Alert) in the two firms' joint Radio Mobile Innovation Centre based in Madrid, Spain.
