Spectronite

In the same way 4G has made streaming services possible, leading to the rapid development of popular streaming applications, 5G will unleash new usages, services and functionalities. The problem resides in the fact that traditional radios, which are predominantly built on hardware-centric architectures, have reached their maximum limits and cannot accommodate the required 10 times capacity increase factor. While traditional radios simply provide incremental capacity improvement, limited by their hardware-centric legacy technology, we have designed a totally new software-defined transmission system. Our radios provide up to 20x the capacity of traditional radios and make wireless backhaul a tangible option to roll-out 5G and limit their dependency on fiber optics. With a single day deployment and a fraction of the cost of fiber, Spectronite backhaul radios allow operators to roll-out 5G faster and lower significantly their deployment cost. Then, to offer 5G, operators would first need to increase drastically the capacity of their backhaul network.
