WWW.WISPA.ORG 17 www.bekabusinessmedia.com DAY 2 Tarana Wireless Inc. announced today its next-generation fixed wireless access (ngFWA) platform, Gigabit 1, is capable of operating in the huge swath of unlicensed 6 GHz spectrum becoming available in the next few months throughout the United States. A range of public and private organizations in the United States are digging in on the hard work required to solve the country’s persistent broadband issues. While several federal- and state-funded public projects attempt to address the ~12 million families and other locations deemed un- or underserved, other commercial initiatives aim to help the more than 50 million families in the country who have very limited options for fast broadband service. All these initiatives face the same challenge: America’s a big country. And closing long distances with high-speed fiber is often impractically expensive. There have been several state-funded projects in the past few years with fiber-build costs in excess of a state-taxpayer-infuriating $100,000 per home. As an alternative, new lower-orbit satellite constellations are markedly better than prior satellite generations, but their limited network capacity makes them best suited to serve only hard-to-reach remote locations. The remaining all-important challenge lies in areas too difficult for fiber and too dense for satellite service — by Tarana’s estimate more than 40 million households nationwide. G1’s core technology, designed from the ground up exclusively for high-performance home broadband, is proven in more than 200 commercial networks in 20-plus countries, providing 100s of Mbps of connectivity per home at multi-mile ranges despite pervasive obstructions and interference. Importantly, the engineers at Tarana also solved the “uplink problem” inherent in many wireless and wired systems. G1 services feature high uplink speeds and can deliver symmetric services without sacrificing efficiency. Now, with ample 6 GHz spectrum, G1 can offer gigabit-tier services as well. Tarana’s CEO and Chairman Basil Alwan, said “Homes are voracious consumers of bandwidth — 20 to 30 times more than a typical 5G mobile device. This new combination of 6 GHz spectrum with our G1 ngFWA platform makes it possible to offer fiber-competitive service plans at scale while still leveraging existing tower and backhaul infrastructure. Wireless is no longer a stop-gap to fiber but rather an ‘end-game’ solution, even for high-bandwidth households.” G1 radios for 6 GHz are available now.
