Fixed Wireless Access
Fixed wireless access brings high-speed internet to homes and businesses without the need for buried cables, expanding reliable broadband into hard-to-reach areas
FWA uses wireless radio links between local base stations and customer premises equipment (CPE) to deliver last-mile connectivity. This approach requires robust RF pathways that can handle outdoor conditions, maintain signal strength over long distances and resist interference from weather or nearby networks. High-performance antennas, weather-sealed connectors and low-loss
coaxial assemblies work together to preserve signal integrity from the tower to the user’s device. As demand for faster speeds grows, many FWA systems now leverage 5G technology to provide fiber-like bandwidth without the cost of laying cable. For providers, this means reaching more subscribers with flexible, cost-effective coverage that adapts to new capacity needs.
High-Durability Connectivity for 5G-Driven Fixed Wireless Systems
Every fixed wireless link depends on durable antennas, secure RF connectors and rugged cables that stand up to sun, rain, wind and temperature swings. Proven sealing and plating protect against corrosion and moisture intrusion, ensuring the network stays up even in harsh outdoor environments.
With a global manufacturing footprint, Amphenol RF supports scalable production and dependable supply for FWA deployments worldwide.
Backed by engineering expertise and a commitment to innovation, we help providers expand coverage, bridge the digital divide and build future-ready networks.
