Solutions & Benefits AirHarmony4000 played a prominent role in the success of NextWave’s project. Airspan is one of Airspan’s 4G outdoor products. NextWave deployed 120 AirHarmony4000 enodeB units. NextWave’s New York Metro service is one of the first private networks to prioritize seamless transitions between in-facility 5G coverage and urban 4G+5G transportation channels. This will allow private network users to maintain high levels of security and performance, even when they leave their facility, with the added value of this spectrum being supported by popular smartphones and other widely available mobile broadband devices. With NextWave’s partnership with Airspan there will be an upcoming plan to bring similar private network operations to San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia.
