Technicolor Connected Home has unveiled the 5G Omni Outdoor CPE, a 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) consumer premises equipment (CPE) device. The router enables telecommunication operators to deliver broadband to residential and enterprise customers via 5G wireless connectivity and benefit from the newly available capacity in the C-band (around 3.5 GHz) in the US. Deployed outdoors, the Technicolor 5G Omni CPE terminates the 5G connection and delivers broadband service to the home through any indoor residential router, such as Technicolor Gazelle Ethernet products.
Technicolor's 5G Omni Outdoor CPE is designed to work in densely populated environments and can cope with signal interference and reflection. It is suited for urban and suburban locations, where most of the world's population resides. With Technicolor's 5G Omni Outdoor CPE, operators can offer premium 5G speeds to their customers and gradually decommission their copper network, the vendor said.
