At the forefront of Wireless Innovation, Azcom Technology offers a complete suite of wireless solutions powered by proprietary PHY and L2/L3 Stack Software IPRs, O-RAN RU IPRs, production ready reference designs, able to greatly accelerate the customer’s CU, DU, RU development programs. AII PHY and Stack Software IPRs are available as a stand-alone package or pre-integrated and ported to Azcom’s HW reference platforms. These platforms host baseband and radio hardware, and come along with IP67 compliant mechanical enclosure that permits immediate verification and use of Azcom Solutions, both in lab as well as field environment.
Based around these IPRs and reference designs, Azcom has developed deployable products Dual Mode 5G/4G Small Cells, NB-IoT eNodeB, O-RAN radio, integrated NIB / RDN. These products can be used for providing connectivity solutions for Industrial IoT (Mining, Agriculture, Utilities, Oil & Gas, Logistics), Smart City, Rural, Defence, Public Safety and Mission Critical applications.
