Casa Systems Introduces New Apex™ 5G Metro Radio Access Network (RAN) Solution at 2019 MWC Barcelona
February 27 2019 - 8:00AM
Casa Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CASA) a leading provider of converged
broadband infrastructure technology solutions for mobile, cable and
fixed networks, today announced its new Apex 5G Metro Radio Access
Network (RAN) solution - Casa’s first 5G / New Radio (NR) that
supports virtualized disaggregated and distributed or All-in-One
deployment options.
Casa’s Apex 5G Metro is a high-powered 4T4R (4 transmit / 4
receive) radio designed to meet coverage and capacity challenges in
dense urban and suburban areas where large numbers of NR and LTE
devices are present. Unlike macro-radio solutions mounted on
traditional tower sites, the Apex 5G Metro can be deployed
cost-effectively at the street level, such as utility poles, roof
tops and lamp posts, thus reducing costs associated with a
traditional macro sites.
The Apex 5G Metro’s All-in-One package includes BBU and RRU with
flexible external antenna configurations. It also supports
O-RAN defined open interfaces for centralize and virtualized RAN
deployments, specifically both Split 2 and Split 7.
With the 5G Metro, service providers can start with LTE and
cost-effectively evolve to NR. Initially, the Apex 5G Metro
will support sub 6 GHz bands with expansion to millimeter
wave deployments in the near future.
“Casa delivers solutions that put our customers a step ahead and
opens new service opportunities,” said Jerry Guo, CEO at Casa
Systems. “RAN solutions must be suited for the market. More
and more service providers are turning to Casa Systems for
innovative solutions, like our new Apex 5G Metro, to meet their
unique deployment and performance needs.”
The Apex 5G Metro is the latest addition to Casa Systems’ end-to
end RAN solution suite that includes the Apex RAN portfolio of
lifestyle, enterprise and strand-mounted cells as well as the
Axyom™ Element Management System and Axyom virtualized Small Cell
Core. The Apex 5G Metro will be available for lab and field
testing in the second half of 2019.
