The Pivotal Commware Product Ecosystem

Pivotal created the world’s first smart repeater ecosystem based on Holographic Beam Forming® and solved millimeter wave’s (mmWave) most vexing challenges.

Pivotal’s mmWave ecosystem starts with WaveScape™, a subscriber-driven planning tool uniquely optimized for line-of-sight accuracy and qualifying individual locations.  Network operators use WaveScape to optimize the placement of network elements such as repeaters and 5G base stations, minimize TCO and serve high-value subscribers with superior connectivity. Next in the ecosystem are Pivotal’s precision beamforming repeaters:

  • Pivot 5G® network repeater for cost-effectively extending base station, i.e., gNB, mmWave coverage outdoors, and
  • Echo 5G™ subscriber  repeater  for penetrating  and flooding mmWave indoors  with native 5G NR connectivity.

WaveScape has demonstrated how these products, deployed in conjunction with gNBs, reach more subscribers at less cost than deploying gNBs alone. This way, operators can grow mobile and FWA coverage organically along with revenue.

Pivotal’s product line-up concludes with the Intelligent Beam Management System (IBMS) for network status and optimization.  IBMS combines machine learning with smart repeaters to manage network change predictably and in real time.

HBF inside Echo 5G
Subscriber Product

  • Enables Gigabit+ in-building 5G penetration at one kilometer, even at extreme angles of incidence.
  • Customer self-installable.
  • Increases subscribers per gNodeB ratio.
  • Counteracts reflection, penetration and shadowing losses.

HBF inside Pivot 5G
Network Product

  • Cost effectively extends, redirects and shapes 5G coverage on demand and with low latency.
  • Saves carriers base station deployment CAPEX and reduces ongoing OPEX.
  • Reduces siting cost and deployment time.
  • Grows network coverage organically with revenue.

HBF inside gNodeB

  • Combines lowest cost, size, weight and power consuming beamformer with near horizon scanning range to reduce gNodeB deployment costs and OPEX.
  • Lowers small cell profiles, increasing municipal acceptance.
  • ORAN & 3GPP compliant.
