Airgain, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIRG), a leading provider of advanced
antenna technologies used to enable high performance wireless
networking across a broad range of devices and markets, including
consumer, enterprise, and automotive, today announced the release
of its CENTURION Next 9-in-1 5G antenna platform. The CENTURION
Next delivers industry leading 5G performance and is the first in
its class to provide full support for the next generation of Wi-Fi,
Wi-Fi 6.
The CENTURION Next is designed to provide a future-proof and
high performance 5G and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity solution for fleet and
public safety vehicles and assets. Equipped with nine ports, it
connects to almost any vehicular router or modem. Delivering
powerful MIMO technology, this configurable antenna offers up to
four high gain Cellular/5G (600 MHz to 6 GHz) antennas including
support for LTE Band 14 for FirstNet™, Band 71 for T-Mobile, CBRS
(Citizens Broadband Radio Service) OnGo, LAA (License Assisted
Access), and with backwards compatibility for most global 2G, 3G,
and 4G frequency bands. The CENTURION Next provides broadband
support with four high gain tri-band Wi-Fi antennas, including
support for future 6 GHz ISM band spectrum (5.925 GHz to 7.125 GHz)
in addition to the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands to be utilized by Wi-Fi
6 (802.11ax), and a GNSS element inside with coverage for multiple
satellite systems including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BDS (BeiDou
Navigation Satellite System).
The CENTURION Next has been designed to outperform competing
9-in-1 antenna platforms by providing additional coverage and
enabling services in low-signal locations. It supports the next
generation of vehicular routers with 5G modem capabilities and
multiple carrier switching, while providing next generation Wi-Fi
support with four integrated high gain Wi-Fi 6 antennas for full HD
streaming video and other high-bandwidth applications with maximum
range.
“We are excited to launch this flagship 5G product in our
Antenna Plus product portfolio, complete with wideband and
multiband antennas that support the next generation of routers and
modems,” said Kevin Thill, Airgain’s Senior Vice President of
Engineering. “With over 15 years of providing cutting edge wireless
solutions to the market, our customers and partners can rely on
Airgain’s technological superiority and depth of design experience.
Support for 5G and Wi-Fi 6 make this antenna future-proof for the
next generation of vehicular modems coming into the market soon,
which means our customers can deploy with the confidence that the
antenna asset will endure the life of the vehicle, likely
outlasting generations of vehicular routers.”
