Nokia Unveils FastMile Gateway 4: A Compact 5G FWA Solution with Wi-Fi 7
Nokia has expanded its Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) portfolio with the launch of the FastMile Gateway 4. This is a compact 5G home gateway equipped with Wi-Fi 7. This beacon is designed to deliver 5G speeds across the home, ensuring faster and more reliable connectivity for users.
Here are some key Features of FastMile Gateway 4:
- Wi-Fi 7 with multi-link operation (MLO) for speeds up to 4Gbps
- High-gain antennas (up to 8 dBi) for improved 5G signal reception
- 4 carrier aggregation and 300MHz bandwidth for better coverage and performance
- Supports 8RX and 3TX for improved spectrum efficiency
- Self-installation via a user-friendly mobile app
- Powered by Nokia’s Corteca software for optimized Wi-Fi management
Expanding Nokia’s 5G FWA Portfolio
With the introduction of the FastMile Gateway 4, Nokia now offers a range of Wi-Fi 7-enabled FWA solutions, including indoor, outdoor, and window-mounted models. This ensures operators can deliver high-speed broadband to a variety of users, regardless of their location.
Nokia has also slightly adjusted the design of the beacons and indoor antennas, making them more visually appealing and likely softer to the touch. The main challenge now is where to find these products; Nokia will likely sell them through carriers as part of bundled services.
