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
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 first and only Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) platform built
exclusively for the larger 160 MHz channels in the expanded 5 GHz
band and upcoming 6 GHz band, recently approved by the FCC.
Operating from 5.150 GHz to 6.425 GHz.
- The A6 can support more than 200 subscribers – a 4X
increase
- The corresponding C6x radio is capable of subscriber speeds of
up to 1.75 Gbps, a major milestone
- The first and only FWA platform with SFP+ and dual fiber port
switching
- The lowest latency platform: OFDMA AP scheduled uplink
frequency map allows simultaneous subscriber transmission, enabling
a greater than 4X latency reduction over 802.11ac products -- 1
millisecond in Wi-Fi mode, 5 milliseconds in TDMA mode
- The only FWA solution with in-channel noise isolation and
interference management. Wi-Fi 6E offers superior noise
cancellation
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.
