Telrad Networks has launched a new 5 GHz, unlicensed band, LTE solution, which was also showcased in a successful trial by the Idaho-based White Cloud Networks ISP. The new product enables operators to create greenfield networks using the license-exempt band, or for existing networks to augment their operations with the addition of affordable coverage.
The Telrad unlicensed product suite includes the new BreezeU-100 base station, the flagship BreezeCOMPACT 1000 base station, the new CPE8700 outdoor high-power CPE, BreezeVIEW network management, and the BreezeWAY flexible and scalable EPC. Telrad has designed the 5 GHz product unlicensed LTE products to provide any size customer with a complete, fully standards-based LTE network that offers cost-optimized configurations, lower total cost of ownership, Near-LOS capabilities and high throughput.
According to Telrad’s Wireless Division, the product is going to be a real game-changer for many operators, especially those that don’t have access to licensed spectrum or are interested in expanding coverage and capacity by supplementing their licensed spectrum with unlicensed spectrum. The combination of the new 5 GHz product with Telrad’s CBRS band solution will make LTE operation even more affordable for service providers globally.
Telrad is exhibiting its products at the WISPAPALOOZA Conference in Las Vegas till October 12, 2018. Visitors can learn more about the new unlicensed LTE product as well as the rest of the company’s suite of high-performance products.
