MulteFire solution simplifies private wireless – adds capacity to private wireless networks through deployment over unlicensed spectrum, enables new nomadic use cases, advances Industry 4.0 for SMEs
A compact, easy-to-deploy platform, Nokia DAC comprises network and user equipment, a cloud-based operation monitoring system, and industrial connectors that ease standard and industry-specific protocol connectivity. It also features device management capability that seamlessly integrates ruggedized handhelds and other wireless devices.
Nokia is a founding member of the MFA, an international organization that champions global industry adoption of private cellular networks using unlicensed spectrum. The Nokia Industrial MulteFire router 700 solution is the first device to have been independently certified by MFA. Based on 3GPP Release 13 and 14 and MulteFire R1.0 standard, MulteFire supports Listen-Before-Talk for co-existence with Wi-Fi and other technologies operating in the same spectrum.
“Being first to market with the only fully industry-approved MulteFire solution available, allows Nokia to set a new standard in wireless broadband convenience and affordability for a worldwide mass market. Our unique MulteFire UE solution further extends our market-leading portfolio of industrial-grade connectivity solutions, and by doing so, also brings Industry 4.0 one step closer for small and medium-sized enterprises.”
