A 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) solution has been introduced by Swiss full-service provider Swisscom. Customers of Swisscom Business can now use the 5G FWA services that were made available by the telecom company last week. B2B customers can now install a fixed internet connection utilising 5G technology at their corporate facilities due to Swisscom's 5G Fixed Wireless Access Services.

Using 5G wireless technologies, this solution enables business clients without fixed-line connection to connect to their corporate network.

According to the business, Swisscom is making the fastest internet accessible to business customers in locations of temporary business sites and in places where normal network expansion is not possible with the help of this solution.

Friederike Hoffmann, Head of Connected Business Solutions at Swisscom said: “5G FWA offers great potential for our business customers. They can use it to benefit from the fastest Internet at their sites and be ready to make full use of all services.” 

Swisscom is utilizing 5G Mobile Access to improve the fixed network architecture and expand the accessibility of ultra-broadband with up to 1 Gbps of bandwidth. 5G FWA serves as a failover(backup) with added security of a mobile network connection for the Internet connection supplied bya copper or fibre optic link. As a result, the 5G FWA solution can serve as a 5G mobile backup. Mobile coverage, either 5G or 4G, is necessary for 5G FWA.

The Mobile Access and Backup service utilises a tiny receiver, or Customer Premises Equipment , or CPE. An external 5G SIM card is put in the Nokia 5G Mobile Toolkit, which also supports 4G. The Swisscom network is accessible wirelessly thanks to the toolkit's connection to the mobile communication tower. Customers in the business world have the choice of using 5G FWA with Enterprise Connect as a 5G Mobile Backup or 5G Mobile Access solution. The 100-meter cable used by the 5G Mobile Toolkit is available.
