The Roadmap for 5G

And Where We Get Involved

View Our Products

Phase 1: Building Fiber Rings

5G requires more fibers per cell tower than 4G; carriers and construction companies are responsible for ensuring more fiber rings are built.

Phase 2: Adding Small Cells to Densify Mesh

Densification requires much more fiber when going from 3G to 4G to 5G; carriers and construction companies are also responsible for this phase.

Phase 3: Integrating Active Cabinets Within the Small Cells

Our products help service providers reduce the high costs associated with deploying, managing, protecting and scaling a fiber-optic network.
