As a global
leading provider of IoT (Internet of Things) wireless solutions and wireless
communication modules, Fibocom launches the 5G Sub-6GHz and mmWave
modules: FG170(W) and FM170(W) at MWC Las Vegas 2022. Powered by
Snapdragon X65 5G Modem-RF System, Fibocom FG170(W) & FM170(W) are designed
to offer a fiber-like wireless connectivity experience with extended network
coverage, boosted throughput, and increased capability, further enhancing 5G
performance in FWA, Industrial IoT, C-V2X, private network, and other mass data
scenarios.
Compliant
with 3GPP R16 standard, the new Fibocom 5G modules
have four variants that adopt LGA and M.2 form factors separately, bringing
larger bandwidth by combining NR CA (Carrier Aggregation) into module design. Fibocom FG170(W) and
FM170W support 5G Sub-6GHz and mmWave dual connectivity as well as 8CC CA,
delivering multi-gigabit speeds as the result of the unique capability to reach
800 MHz of mmWave spectrum. FG170 and FM170 support 5G Sub-6GHz connectivity as
well as 4CC CA and up to 300MHz of spectrum, to improve the utilization of
spectrum resource and ensure an extended 5G coverage.
It is worth mentioning that the Fibocom FM170(W)/FG170(W)
module support 4×4 MIMO (multiple input, multiple output) in the low-frequency
band, enhancing the spectral efficiency and coverage quality in locations which
generally have poorer connection. In addition, the 5G modules support Power
Class 1.5 (PC1.5) HPUE, which increases the uplink speed and extends uplink
coverage, improving cell edge performance.
Along with
abundant functionalities such as digital audio, VoLTE and SMS, Fibocom FG170(W)/FM170(W)
module series support multi-constellation GNSS, which provides high-performance
positioning and navigation. Meanwhile, they integrate multiple operating
systems (Linux/ Android/ Windows OS), various Internet protocols as well as
industry-standard interfaces, allowing much flexibility and ease of integration
for customer’s deployment.
Dan Schieler,
SVP of IoT Abroad Gross sales Dept., Fibocom, commented: “We’re proud to
announce the launch of our progressive 5G Sub-6 and mmWave module sequence at
MWC Las Vegas 2022. Fibocom has been dedicated to boosting 5G commercialization
worldwide. Primarily based on the Snapdragon X65 5G Modem-RF System, the brand
new technology of 5G
modules are to offer verticals with superior connectivity efficiency.”
