Kavveri Telecom on Thursday said that its Canadian arm Spotwave Wireless, Canada has got  approval from Federal Communication Commission (FCC) for its in building solution Repeaters for 4G technology for usage in telecom networks across North America.

With this approval from Federal Communication Commission for usage of its products in telecom networks, company now hopes to bag new orders in north American market.
