Cambium Networks’ ePMP 4600 Receives FCC and ISEDC Certification for Outdoor 6 GHz Fixed Wireless

Service providers in the USA and its territories can now expand outdoor gigabit service with technology proven in more than 130 networks.

Cambium Networks announced that service providers, enterprises, and industrial network operators in the USA and territories as well as Canada are now able to commercially deploy greater than 1 Gbps speeds with ePMP 4600 6 GHz outdoor fixed wireless. The FCC has fully approved Cambium’s ePMP 4600 and 4600L access points and Force 4625 and 4600C subscriber modules to operate commercially in the 6 GHz band. The 6 GHz unlicensed spectrum uses an Automatic Frequency Coordination service which is also fully approved and operational. The solution has been tested in more than 130 broadband service providers under the FCC’s experimental license program. Canada’s ISEDC has also approved the use of this same set of products throughout all provinces.

“With the experimental license program, this is one of our most rigorously field-tested technologies,” said Morgan Kurk, president and CEO of Cambium Networks. “Cambium’s ONE Network offers a complete proven solution. When ePMP is combined with LIDAR-based planning tools, centralized cloud management with AI-enabled monitoring, Quality of Experience optimization, and cnMatrix TX series switching solutions, broadband service providers can confidently deliver exceptional business and residential connectivity at compelling price points.”

“WISPA is pleased to see the advancement of the 6 GHz Part 15 Band through the approval of fully FCC-tested and certified compatible equipment, which will be the basis for a robust new shared ecosystem.  We congratulate Cambium’s ONE Network-approved products, as well as the others who were approved by the FCC’s action” indicated, Richard Bernhardt, VP, Spectrum and Industry for WISPA – Broadband without Boundaries.”

ePMP 4600 6 GHz Fixed Wireless Broadband Technology

The ePMP 4600 is the fourth generation of Cambium’s ePMP platform and supports the entire 6 GHz spectrum (UNII-5 and UNII-7). Millions of Cambium Networks ePMP radios have been deployed globally leveraging this proven, scalable technology for over 10 years. The ePMP platform delivers scalability with up to 120 subscribers per sector, interference tolerance with MU-MIMO and beamforming, and capacities of up to 4 Gbps per sector. With the ePMP 4600, operators can affordably deliver service in either low-density rural areas or high-density suburban areas, with low TCO aligned to market economics.
