The new Multi-Tenant FWA architecture, a standard developed within the Broadband Forum, makes it possible for many apartments in a building to share a single 5G mmWave connection received at a rooftop or other exterior location.","length":415,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"InCoax plays a central role in the solution. The shared 5G connection is distributed to each apartment using InCoax MoCA Access technology over the existing coaxial cables. This provides service providers with a cost-effective and non-intrusive way to use 5G mmWave for in-building broadband distribution, without the need to install fiber inside the property.","length":360,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"The work has been set up by a group including major telecom and broadband providers (Nokia and Incognito) together with InCoax, and can already today be implemented as a commercial solution. The purpose of the demonstration is to give operators and industry stakeholders a preview of how Multi-Tenant FWA can be used in practice and further developed into deployable solutions. It describes several use cases, including how fixed-line and 5G mmWave FWA operators can manage and deliver gigabit services in multi-dwelling units (MDUs).","length":539,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"Hosted within the Broadband Forum Innovation Demonstrations, this showcase reflects the organization's mission of turning open standards into practical implementations through global collaboration between member companies.","length":226,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"The live demonstrations can be experie...
