VANTIVA unveils "Falcon 5G" for operators FWA strategies at MWC
Summary
FWA offers these NSPs an opportunity to introduce new residential services and generate new revenue streams," said Ashwani Saigal, Vice President of Broadband and Video CPE at VANTIVA. The Falcon 5G, for instance, pushes 5G traffic to the C-band of the spectrum, improving indoor 5G signal reception and significantly boosting uplink speeds while enabling whole-home Wi-Fi coverage in a more compact eco-friendly form factor. The single-unit CPE can be easily self-installed by subscribers with the help of the NaviGate5G iOS and Android mobile apps developed by VANTIVA to aid the position of the 5G gateway in the home. The form factor reduction means that the number of gateways flowing through the international supply chain in shipping containers increases by 47%, further improving the carbon footprint profile of the product. "Qualcomm Technologies global leadership and 5G solutions have been critical in fostering the proliferation and adoption of 5G and FWA to drive affordable, accessible connectivity infrastructure for global communities," said Dino Flore, Vice President, Technology, Qualcomm Europe, Inc. "We are pleased to support VANTIVA as they bring a portfolio of high-performance indoor CPE products to the markets worldwide."
