en.Wedoany.com Reported - Fibocom has launched the FG550-EAU, a memory-optimized 5G module based on the Samsung Exynos modem platform, during the 2026 Mobile World Congress Shanghai.
This module optimizes the RAM configuration from LPDDR4x 8Gb to 4Gb, reducing capacity by 50% while retaining business functions and customer customization capabilities. Memory cost and availability are becoming key factors influencing the commercialization of 5G terminals, as demand from AI servers and data centers exacerbates memory shortages and price fluctuations. This optimization targets cost control and stable delivery requirements in mass production, helping to reduce terminal BOM costs, enhance supply chain resilience, and improve deployment certainty.
Fibocom achieved stable deployment under the 4Gb configuration through underlying code review, memory scheduling optimization, and precise system resource allocation. The optimized FG550-EAU retains key product features, improving resource utilization, operational experience, and energy efficiency. The module supports 3GPP Rel.16 and NR 5CC carrier aggregation, and is backward compatible with LTE Cat.20, enabling 4G/5G dual-mode connectivity across major global networks.
Xuebao Pan, Senior Vice President of Samsung Semiconductor China Research and Head of the System LSI R&D Center, stated that this RAM optimization solution demonstrates Fibocom's exceptional engineering capabilities and professionalism. He highly recognized this breakthrough in balancing performance and cost, and looks forward to continued collaboration to empower next-generation 5G terminals.
This memory optimization represents Fibocom's technological innovation driven by mass production needs. Fibocom stated that it will leverage its capabilities in 5G connectivity, platform adaptation, and supply chain management to jointly develop more cost-competitive and delivery-certain 5G terminal products with global FWA, mobile broadband, and IoT customers.
Fibocom is China's first A+H-share listed wireless communication module company, offering one-stop solutions covering cellular communication, AI, automotive, and GNSS modules, as well as AI toolchains, serving digital and intelligent upgrades in industries such as robotics, consumer electronics, low-altitude economy, smart transportation, smart retail, and smart energy.
