Cambium Networks Announces 28 GHz cnWave™ Multi-Gigabit 5G Fixed Wireless Solution
Operating in the mmWave bands from 24.25 to 29.50 GHz, encompassing the 3GPP 5G channels N257, N258, and N261,
"5G fixed technology fits perfectly as a complement to wired or mobile networks," said Chris DePuy, Technology Analyst at 650 Group. "Hybrid networks may require service provider architects to think differently, but the capital spending savings can be significant."
The system is designed to operate in urban, suburban, and rural locations. Utilizing 112 MHz wide channels, 28 GHz cnWave can provide over 3 Gbps of throughput. In addition, the system can support up to 240 subscribers per sector with a range up to 7 km.
"To expand their addressable market, service providers are leveraging hybrid networks," said
The system employs the 5G protocol and innovations that optimize performance for fixed wireless applications. Purpose-built for fixed wireless broadband, key features of the solution include:
- 5G-NR protocol and frame structure – optimized for fixed wireless to maximize throughput and reduce complexity, while retaining the ability to coexist with standards-based products
- Multi-User MIMO – leveraging
Cambium Networks' industry-leading and field-proven cnMedusa™ Massive MU-MIMO technology that provides up to eight simultaneous data streams to CPEs - Beamforming – proven
Cambium Networks wireless technology to optimize performance and isolate noise - Automated provisioning – to streamline installation and provisioning
"28 GHz cnWave enables service providers to extend the fiber core in a matter of weeks or months instead of years," said
Base Transceiver Station (BTS) – The BTS integrates all functions of a gNB and network core in one box and is optimized for fixed wireless applications. Cambium Networks Software-Defined Radio technology enables future enhancements without requiring replacement or on-site dispatches.- Tower Switch - Designed for multi-gigabit fixed wireless broadband network operators, the cnMatrix™ TX series of switches provides a fully integrated switching solution that reduces the number of boxes, simplifies deployment operations while improving network performance.
