Flashcom uses the latest in 3rd generation wireless technology called Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), which is touted as the future of wireless communications and is the fastest growing wireless technology. This technology has gained popularity due to the fact that it supports both voice services and high-speed data in a single network.
Our network infrastructure is built to world-class standards and by managing it ourselves we are able to provide the quality of the service and the flexibility that our customers require. We have been able to successfully cover the whole of Nairobi and the immediate environs and we take pride in having the largest number of base stations in Nairobi.
Our network design and technology ensures that our service is available whenever the customer requires it and the customer is always connected. Given that the technology is wireless, connection to the network is immediate as there are no wires to be installed.
As its name implies, CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) assigns unique codes to each pair of communicators to differentiate it from others in the same spectrum. CDMA is a "spread spectrum" technology, allowing many users to occupy the same time and frequency allocations in a given band/space. CDMA assigns unique codes to each communication to differentiate it from others in the same spectrum. In a world of finite spectrum resources, CDMA enables many more people to share the airwaves at the same time than do alternative technologies.
Benefits of CDMA Technology
- Wireless
- Supports both Voice and Data on one Channel
- Better voice quality
- Increased Voice capacity meaning it can accommodate more users and can accommodate increased demand for telephone services in both residential and commercial areas
- Higher Data speeds
- Environmentally friendly with the Power of the handset being controlled by the network to regulate the signal emission.
