6 WISPAPALOOZA SHOW I OCTOBER 13 – 16, 2025 www.bekabusinessmedia.com DAY 2 Winncom Technologies, a leading global value-added distributor of wireless and wired broadband equipment, announced the continued success of its Grant Writing Assistance Program, which has achieved an impressive 80 percent success rate in securing federal and state broadband funding for its customers. Since the June 6 National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) BEAD Bargain Round restructuring, Winncom has partnered with more than 30 customers across 16 states, supporting the submission of more than 65 applications for programs such as BEAD and USDA. The Winncom Grant Writing Assistance Program is a comprehensive consultative service that guides service providers, cooperatives and municipalities through every stage of the funding process. From eligibility verification, FWA heat mapping and RSSI validation to highlevel fiber design (HLD), the program provides end-to-end support in crafting compelling narratives, designing complete budgets and ensuring compliance. Winncom works with customers to identify optimal project areas based on eligibility and competitiveness, recommend the right technologies aligned with each state’s BEAD scoring criteria and address challenges such as passing costs and high-cost thresholds. The program also offers hands-on assistance with both prequalification and application narratives, while providing ongoing strategic guidance and postaward compliance support. Beyond funding, Winncom stands ready to ensure projects are delivered on time and on budget. The company’s Supply Chain Solutions Program supports customers through every phase of deployment with services including: • Sourcing and procurement • Logistics and transit management • Inventory management and centralized warehousing • Project-specific allocation, staging and kitting • Packaging, labeling and compliance documentation (BABA/Waiver) • Project management and post-award support “At Winncom, our mission is to empower service providers and communities with both the funding and the tools they need to close the digital divide,” said Gregory Raskin, CEO of Winncom Technologies. “The success of our customers in the BEAD program is a testament to our consultative approach—pairing expert grant assistance and engineering expertise with world-class supply chain solutions. We are proud to be a trusted partner in building the next generation of broadband infrastructure across the United States.” m Visit Winncom Technologies at WISPAPALOOZA booths 348 and 544. InCoax Networks has announced the launch of a new broadband access solution that delivers 5 Gbps symmetrical speeds over coaxial networks. The achievement is based on InCoax’s patented Link Aggregation (LAG) technology, which combines two MoCA Access 2.5 channels into one seamless, high-performance link. The new InCoax Access 5 Gbps solution, featuring the InCoax A5 NTE, is now available for operator testing. This launch marks a major step forward in broadband access innovation. Traditionally, MoCA Access 2.5 has been limited to 2.5 Gbps per channel. InCoax engineers developed a new generation of control-layer software that overcame key challenges in synchronization, packet distribution, latency management and stability. The result is the first commercial system where two independent MoCA channels operate as a coherent 5 Gbps link. The new system is embodied in the InCoax Access A5 NTE, operating together with the in:xtnd C254 Control Unit. Together they deliver sustained 5 Gbps throughput, extended reach of up to 240 meters, robust QoS and full compatibility with MoCA Access 2.5 networks. The solution also supports remote configuration and integration into operators’ OSS and BSS platforms, ensuring efficient deployment and management. “Launching a solution capable of 5 Gbps over coax demonstrates both our innovation and our ability to turn R&D into operator-ready technology,” said Jörgen Ekengren, CEO, InCoax Networks. “The A5 modem is the first embodiment of this achievement, showing that coax remains a strategic and future-proof medium for multi-gigabit broadband. It provides operators with a faster and more cost-effective path to fiber-like performance in MDUs, without the disruption of new cabling.” For operators, the InCoax Access 5 Gbps solution provides a competitive alternative to costly fiber retrofits or DOCSIS 4.0 upgrades. It enables the launch of premium service tiers, accelerates time to revenue and supports longterm competitiveness through scalable software innovation. The solution is available for operator testing and evaluation, giving service providers the opportunity to validate 5 Gbps performance in their own environments and accelerate their roadmap to next-generation broadband. m Visit InCoax Networks at WISPAPALOOZA booth 518.
