Federated Wireless is working with The National
Advanced Spectrum and Communications Test Network (NASCTN) and
other government agencies on certification of the company’s
Spectrum Access Solution (SAS), which integrates with CINQ XP.
Federated Wireless, Inc. is pleased to introduce CINQ XP, the
company’s first commercial product that provides a private, secure
cloud-based network for carriers to extend the allocation and
management of spectrum resources through shared spectrum, and that
will facilitate the use of the company’s proprietary Spectrum
Access System (SAS) once testing and certification are
completed.
Federated Wireless is currently working with The National
Advanced Spectrum and Communications Test Network (NASCTN) on
testing and validating its Environmental Sensor Capability (ESC)
for its SAS, and has been instrumental in setting the standards for
spectrum sharing with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) and the Wireless Innovation Forum (WinnForum).
CINQ XP will allow carriers to unlock the value of the 3.5 GHz
band (called the Citizen’s Broadband Radio Service), spectrum
sharing, and Federated Wireless’ proprietary SAS, enabling them to
extend network coverage to secondary markets, including both indoor
and outdoor locations.
Through CINQ XP’s cloud-based system, carriers will be able
to:
- Access a full list of FCC-certified
devices
- License users through Priority or
General Access
- Plan an extension of their existing
network with spectrum sharing
- Provide and manage access points
without field engineering
CINQ XP is powered by Intel technologies, including the use of
Intel® Transcede™ T3K SoCs and Intel® Wi-Fi radios within the
access points. Intel® Xeon® processors power the cloud-based
network that CINQ XP enables through the SAS. Federated Wireless is
a member of the Intel® Network Builders Program.
“Federated Wireless has long been developing technology and
intellectual property in conjunction with the Federal Government
and other stakeholders of the wireless ecosystem to enable our
proprietary technology for the 3.5 GHz band,” said Federated
Wireless Chief Executive Officer Iyad Tarazi. “Today’s announcement
is the culmination of the hard work of our team as we prepare for
the certification and commercial availability of our solution. We
are pleased that we have used high-quality technology to build our
solution, and see today’s announcement as further evidence that we
will be a disruptive force in the market.”
Federated Wireless has been working on developing the ecosystem
and standards for the 3.5 GHz band since the FCC came out with the
Rules and Order for Innovative Spectrum Sharing in the band in
April of this year. In addition to working with the FCC, Federated
Wireless has worked with other government agencies and the
WinnForum to get the band ready for commercial use.
Key Benefits of CINQ XP include:
- Access to a new model of shared
spectrum that combines the quality and predictability of licensed
spectrum with the low cost and versatility of unlicensed
spectrum
- An extension of networks indoors
utilizing cloud economics, reducing the high cost of Wi-Fi
infrastructure
- The ability to plan and optimize
networks in real time in the cloud, reducing the cost and time
needed for field engineering
- New market opportunities that will help
to facilitate the smart home and mobile enterprise
- On-demand analytics to allow for the
dynamic management of networks
- Compatibility that allows for
integration with existing tools and services
- Identification of secondary
markets
“Cloud-based solutions like CINQ XP offer more flexibility and
performance scalability for the wireless networks of tomorrow,”
said Intel’s Renu Navale, director of Intel® Network Builders.
“Federated Wireless’ shared spectrum solutions use Intel®
technologies to offer a solution that has the necessary capacity to
handle an increase in data traffic.”
