New MV6055 60GHz Chipset and Antenna to Expand Movandi’s Addressable Markets and Applications
IRVINE, Calif., October 25, 2021 – Movandi, a leader in 5G mmWaveRF technologies and products, today announced the availability ofMV6055 chipset samples for various 60GHz market applications. Movandi’s MV6055 chipset covers the entire unlicensed band between 57–71 GHz. The MV6055 integrates a dual-polarized,16-channel beamformer with up and down converters in a single package and is paired with MV3504 synthesizer and antennas to form a full radio solution. The modular and scalable architecture allows for multipleMV6055 beamformers to be combined to achieve higher Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) to cover line-of-sight distances up to 2 km.
The MV6055 is designed to unlock the potential of 60GHz unlicensed band for wireless backhaul, 5G NR-U, Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) and Wi-Fi at 60 GHz (WiGig) applications. Movandi’s new 60 GHz mmWave solution will enable operators to deliver “fiber-like speeds” at a fraction of the cost of deploying new fiber. The MV6055 joins the Movandi family of chipsets supporting all major licensed and unlicensed mmWave frequency bands.
“As a 5G mmWave pioneer, Movandi has invested heavily in 60 GHz R&D to enable distributed wireless mesh networking,” said Maryam Rofougaran, CEO and founder of Movandi. “The introduction of our 60 GHz chipset that fully supports all licensed and unlicensed mmWave frequency bands is a game-changer—and further advances our efforts to empower 5G operators with a cost-effective way to deliver fiber-like speeds in rural, suburban and dense urban communities.”
