Contract win
MTI Wireless Edge Ltd (AIM: MWE), the technology group focused on comprehensive communication and radio frequency solutions across multiple sectors, is pleased to announce that its antenna division has secured a framework order totaling approximately $0.5m for a 5G dual band backhaul solution . Supply under this order is expected to be completed in the next nine months.
Dov Feiner, General Manager of MTI's antenna division commented: "We see this order as a significant step towards the full deployment of 5G backhaul solutions. So far, we have sold thousands of antennas for 5G backhaul but all in smaller quantities and mainly for field testing and early deployments. Whereas this single larger order to be shipped over a relatively short time period is different and indicative of the market moving forward with the adoption of 5G backhaul solutions.
We believe that we are at the early stage of a global upgrade of cellular network infrastructure to 5G. It is widely expected that companies such as Apple and Samsung will launch handsets in 2020 that will include 5G connectivity, and network operators will respond by rolling out higher bandwidth 5G services to their customers. This presents a major opportunity for MTI's dual band antennas as operators will need to increase the backhaul connectivity between cell towers to deliver these faster services."
