First gigabit subscriber speed, fixed wireless, Point-to-Multipoint (PTMP) solution
A6 Access Point and C6x radio debut a new generation of high-performing fixed wireless technologies to improve PTMP performance, scaling and reliability featuring up to 7 Gbps throughput for outdoor broadband networks and 5G backhaul infrastructure
BOCA RATON, Fla. & LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mimosa by Airspan, a subsidiary of Airspan Networks Holdings Inc. (NYSE American: MIMO) today introduced its new A6 Wi-Fi 6E, 802.11ax access point platform, the first gigabit-speed fixed wireless access (FWA) point-to-multipoint (PTMP) solution that improves performance, scaling and reliability, featuring up to 7 Gbps throughput for outdoor broadband networks and 5G backhaul infrastructure. This launch, which also features the C6x Wi-Fi 6E radio, is a new Airspan milestone, providing fiber-like speeds for wireless internet service providers (WISPs) and FWA networks to bring the Internet to unconnected areas, as the demand for high-speed internet connectivity is greater than it has ever been.
In addition to the super-fast, fiber-like speeds, the new products feature:
The 6 Series is based on new Wi-Fi 6E technology using 1024 QAM, OFDMA, channel bonding, MU-MIMO and beamforming technologies. The A6's feature-rich solution delivers significant leaps in reliability and performance, making the unlicensed spectrum band even more scalable for ISPs to use than ever before. The A6 also eases the path for 5G network densification using CBRS spectrum.
"Our new 6 Series FWA solutions introduce a new generation of high-performing fixed wireless technologies to take PTMP performance to a new level, and is another example of Airspan's innovation and technology leadership," said Airspan President and CEO Eric Stonestrom. "Airspan's latest technology leverages commercial WiFi 6E chips and spectrum for gigabit broadband applications. With the importance of gigabit speeds in major government-funded programs like RDOF, the 6 Series provides WISPS, ISPs and mobile network operators the ability to deliver network performance with fiber speeds, at a vastly lower cost than fiber."
The 6 Series equipment is currently being tested by customers.
