- IBC technology demo will deliver 1Gbps
and 25 Watts of power through a Low-E glass window
- AirPHYTM ideal for GPON and 5G fixed
wireless broadband access applications
MaxLinear Inc. (NYSE: MXL), a leading provider of radio
frequency (RF), analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits for the
connected home, wired and wireless infrastructure, and industrial
and multimarket applications, today announced its innovative, new
AirPHY™ technology that enables data to be transferred wirelessly
through typical building materials with an aggregate throughput of
up to 2.5 Gbps.
The company will demonstrate AirPHY at IBC 2017 to show how the
AirPHY technology solves broadband service providers’ dilemma of
installing multi-gigabit data services in the home without drilling
holes and running cables through external walls. The demo will
combine the AirPHY technology with wireless power to deliver 1Gbps
data throughput and up to 25 watts of power across a 25mm
low-emissivity (low-e) glass window, more than enough to power the
AirPHY and fiber-optic modems on the other side.
AirPHY technology is ideally suited for deployments of 5G
wireless broadband services that utilize the 28GHz band, which
cannot effectively penetrate exterior walls or low-e glass
windows.
AirPHY technology will enable service providers to provide
bidirectional gigabit broadband services to consumers, delivered
from a high-speed modem outside the home to a residential gateway
or Wi-Fi router within the home. The AirPHY technology operates
within unlicensed radio frequency bands and below the FCC limits
for radiated emissions.
“There is a lot of discussion and excitement over broadband
wireless access services in the industry and we think that AirPHY
has some advantages in throughput and spectrum reuse that make it
very compelling,” said Will Torgerson, Vice President and General
Manager, MaxLinear Broadband Group. “We can foresee many different
use cases and applications for this technology, both in retail and
service provider markets.”
The AirPHY technology demonstration will be held at IBC 2017,
September 14-18, in MaxLinear’s meeting suite - RAI Hall 15 MS23.
