Pivotal Echo 5G™
Pivotal Commware developed the Echo 5G product line so 5G service providers using millimeter wave frequencies can deliver superios broadband experiences to more subscribers at less cost.
The Echo 5G uses Pivotal's patented Holographic Beam Forming® (HBF) to counteract window penetration and reflection loss so consumer and enterprises can enjoy Gigabit speeds beyond the reach of cable and DSL. HBF offers the lowest available size, weight and power consumption beamformer profile so subscribers can install Echo 5G themselves. Besides savings on installation costs, service providers can reach more subscribers using fewer base stations. Echo 5G is the technology enabler that 5G service providers need to close the millimeter wave business case for service fixed and mobile subscribers with higher performance.
Echo 5G Overview
The Pivot 5G™ comprises two back-to-back Echo 5Gs cooperating to route and shape RF energy around obstacles like buildings and boost coverage to extend the range of the 5G base station. This way, service providers can organically grow the 5G coverage footprint while avoiding costly base station development. These products, along with 5G base stations, benefit from HBF as an essential element of the 5G ecosystem.
