Additions to the Nokia FastMile 5G FixedWireless Access Portfolio
Recently, Nokia announced that it has bolstered its FastMile 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) portfolio by introducing new indoor and outdoor devices designed to elevate speeds and extend coverage. The new additions include a groundbreaking outdoor receiver and an indoor gateway equipped with dual-band WiFi 7.
These FastMile 5G FWA portfolio additions significantly empower homes and businesses with advanced connectivity solutions. As demand for high-speed, reliable broadband continues to grow, Nokia’s new devices promise to deliver an unmatched broadband experience through the strategic placement of devices and user-friendly installations. They will also contribute to the efficient use of radio resources and maintain the organization’s commitment to sustainability.
FastMile 5G Receiver 5G26-A: Expanding Outdoor Reach With High-Gain Antennas
Nokia’s studies indicate that placing the right device in the optimal location within the customer’s premise can save operators up to 60% of potentially wasted network capacity. The Nokia FastMile 5G receiver (5G26-A) addresses evolving broadband needs with its compact form factor, outdoor adaptability, and high-gain antennas (10dBi) providing a 180° field of view.
The 8Rx (ready) implementation improves spectrum efficiency, supporting 300 MHz bandwidth for carrier aggregation and enhancing coverage at the cell edge. Designed for flexible installation on windows, walls, balconies, or poles, this outdoor device requires no tools, allowing customers to easily install it themselves.
The Nokia Wireless App guides both consumers and installation technicians, offering valuable information about the mobile network and assisting in locating the optimal radio for each device. This app streamlines the installation process, ensuring the FastMile receivers are mounted in the most effective locations.
In addition to its technological prowess, Nokia emphasizes environmental responsibility by using biodegradable or compostable materials for packaging, contributing to sustainability goals.
FastMile 5G Gateway 7: Indoor Gateways Elevate The 5G Experience Throughout the Home
With homes evolving into multifunctional spaces, the demand for faster and more reliable broadband connectivity is rising. Nokia’s next-generation 5G fixed wireless access gateway is 3GPP compliant and combines 4G and 5G radio to connect homes and businesses. The self-optimizing mesh WiFi 7, powered by Corteca, ensures higher throughput, lower latency, and an unstoppable broadband experience. The gateway, designed for easy self-installation using the Nokia WiFi Mobile App, features an appealing design suitable for homes and offices.
The indoor gateway promises an unparalleled consumer experience by delivering 5G speeds across the home. With high-gain antennas reaching up to 8 dBi, carrier aggregation, and 200MHz spectrum support, the FastMile 5G Gateway 7 is set to improve broadband access dramatically. The value-added applications, cloud-based WiFi optimization, and WiFi device management that Corteca brings are based on industry standards and EasyMesh.
Both the outdoor receiver and indoor gateway are anticipated to be available by early 2024, expanding Nokia’s comprehensive portfolio of customer premise equipment, including 4G and 5G gateways for outdoor and indoor use.
