This document is intended as a guide to wireless network operators, FAP Femtocell Access Point) vendors and other Infrastructure vendors to assist the deployment of 3GPP2 femtocell systems. Every effort was made to make the contents of this document consistent with other cdma20001 femtocell related specifications developed in 3GPP2. If any ambiguity exists, 3GPP2 technical specifications shall take precedence. As femtocell systems evolve and their standardization continues into subsequent system releases, this Overview will be updated accordingly, within those subsequent releases.

This document is informative. As such, any usage of normative-sounding language (e.g., "shall", "should", and "may"), if used on occasion, should be viewed contextually, e.g., as operational advice to operator, not as a system or feature requirement. It is of note that 3GPP2 feature/service requirements developed by TSG-S Stage 1 and SRD contain normative language, strictly speaking, only if that language appears within clearly enumerated requirement statements (see for example S.R0126 [7]).
