en.Wedoany.com Reported - Xcom RAN, a subsidiary of Globalstar, has launched a private 5G solution designed to enable enterprises to run sensitive applications on dedicated spectrum. This end-to-end solution is based on a Supercell architecture, adheres to Open Radio Access Network (RAN) standards, and combines Xcom's radio and core product lines to provide customized private 5G services for businesses.

Abstract private network concept

Xcom RAN's private 5G solution utilizes Distributed Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) antenna technology and supports shared spectrum in the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) and C-band to handle mission-critical industrial workloads. Based on 3GPP and Open RAN standards, the solution separates Central Unit/Distributed Unit (CU/DU) and Radio Unit (RU) functionalities, allowing for joint processing of edge signals to enhance network efficiency.

According to official information, this private 5G solution supports up to 32 antennas and 16 simultaneous data streams, operates on 10 to 100 MHz channels, achieves peak spectral efficiency of approximately 80 bits per second per Hertz, and delivers high data throughput. Tamer Kadous, General Manager of the Xcom RAN business unit, stated: "Customers need a comprehensive wireless network architecture that can scale with their automation strategies, and a partner to support their growth. With this latest launch, we are meeting those needs."

This private 5G solution has gained support from vendors such as Zebra Technologies, Nextivity, and Rajant. Michiel Lotter, CEO of Nextivity, noted: "Trends in enterprise wireless deployments include integrating modern Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) with private 5G to deliver indoor and outdoor capacity and coverage. These solutions are at the forefront of development, and we appreciate the collaboration with the Xcom RAN team." The launch coincides with rumors that Amazon is considering acquiring Globalstar to strengthen its Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite business, although no deal has been confirmed.
