Alcatel-Lucent has announced partnership with TELUS, a Canadian telecommunications company, to offer Enterprise Small Cell device.
This is one of the first deployments of Alcatel-Lucent small cells resulting from its partnership with Qualcomm Technologies and a global first for this particular product, the company said.
The small cell technology from Alcatel-Lucent is powered by Qualcomm FSM9955 system-on-chip chipset. It is capable of extending LTE, 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity and coverage into offices and other buildings.

The partnership will help TELUS deliver seamless connectivity and high performance inside of offices and other densely-populated buildings, which has been increasingly challenging for service providers.
Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Small Cell will help relieve the congestion and offload traffic from the macro cell network to extend existing and new services to public and enterprise indoor environments.
