NEW DELHI: Homegrown gear maker HFCL has launched two new unlicensed band radios (UBR) for upto 1Gbps 4G/5G backhauling, and upto 2Gbps point-to-multipoint connectivity.

HFCL said its new radios offer fibre-like speeds, power efficiency, and significant cost reductions on utilities and tower space, enabling telecom operators to save on capital expenditure (capex) and operational expenditure (opex).

According to the company, these UBRs can be controlled, monitored, and managed through an advanced Element Management System (EMS) – a single-pane-of-glass interface that simplifies network management for large-scale deployments for telcos and enterprises.

The company said it has achieved a milestone of over 500,000 successful deployments of UBRs across its key markets including India, the UK, Europe, Middle East and Africa.

“We are proud to be the first company to launch these cutting-edge indigenously-made UBR solutions that provide high-quality, reliable, and innovative telecom solutions for 5G network expansion,” said Mahendra Nahata, Managing Director, HFCL.
