CommScope Selected by JTOWER to Provide Tower Sharing Delivery Model to Expand 5G Reach in Japan
June 20 2023 - 7:00AM
Business Wire
CommScope (NASDAQ: COMM) announced it has been selected by
leading neutral host service provider JTOWER to be its partner in
providing network operators with greater access to shared broadband
infrastructure. Through the partnership, JTOWER will provide
outdoor infrastructure sharing for network operators using
CommScope’s RF technologies and solutions such as antennas, filters
(duplexers) and coaxial cables.
“In Japan, 5G networks are currently being rolled out by various
network operators, and JTOWER's solutions will enable telcos to
develop its base station infrastructure more efficiently,” stated
Yusuke Kiriya, senior managing director & general manager of
Infrastructure Sharing, JTOWER. “We have high confidence in
CommScope’s long years of global experience, high level of
expertise and flexible support that is tailored to our
requirements.”
Maximizing the potential and cost-efficiency of 5G
The promise of autonomous vehicles, augmented reality, 8K video
quality and enhanced cybersecurity that will run on 5G networks is
fueling expansion across Japan. As operators focus on pragmatic
implementations of 5G networks, they will need to determine which
type of technology will maximize its potential.
For example, massive MIMO substantially increases spectral
efficiency to deliver more network capacity and wider coverage.
However, operators will have to determine if the extra costs and
real-world power requirements associated with active MIMO
deployments are justified, or if an antennae configuration will
suffice.
“As countries like Japan focus on the next decade of
communications infrastructure, they will collaborate with partners
who are committed to rapid connectivity and data delivery. At the
same time, it’s crucial they drive innovations that boost
efficiency, deliver energy savings and optimize processes, to
support the wider economy’s net-zero transition. By tapping into
CommScope’s antenna technology via a shared model, it is a win-win
for JTOWER and mobile operators across Japan,” stated Farid
Firouzbakht, senior vice president and segment president, Outdoor
Wireless Networks, CommScope.
Choosing optimal technology to speed 5G rollouts
JTOWER’s tower sharing business will provide shared access to
CommScope’s Mosaic and HELIAX® products to network operators. The
trusted HELIAX solution portfolio has expanded from coaxial
offerings to include fiber-to-the-antenna (FTTA) and cluster
connector solutions like the ones being integrated into JTOWER’s
infrastructure.
