On February 28, Fibocom, the world's leading provider of IoT wireless communication solutions and wireless communication modules, officially announced that the new generation of 5G module FG370 has been the first to achieve mass production, and it will be held at the 2023 World Mobile Communications Conference (MWC Barcelona 2023) ) During the period, MediaTek officially released the FWA solution based on FG370, including the reference design scheme of CPE and MiFi. At the MWC site, FG370 module products, CPE and MiFi reference design demos have all been unveiled in full dress, demonstrating its innovative technology potential for high-speed networking to global AIoT industry partners.
In order to help customers shorten terminal development time and promote efficient application implementation, Fibocom is the first to release the FG370-based FWA solution this time, including CPE and MiFi reference design Demo, which fully supports multiple advanced features of WiFi 7. The CPE reference design demo size of BE19000 is 100*147*16.75mm, supports tri-band Wi-Fi7, and can be expanded to 1*2.5G/1*1G PHY and SLIC interface; the MiFi reference design demo size of BE6500 is 128.9*64.1 *5.85mm, supports dual-band Wi-Fi7, can be expanded to 1*1G PHY interface, and provides software algorithms such as fast charging management.
In order to meet the needs of different customers in the industry for 5G speed, 5G coverage and storage, Fibocom continues to optimize products on PC1.5, low-frequency 4x4 MIMO, and separate storage, as well as upgrade products on millimeter-wave frequency bands. The FWA solution based on FG370 more reasonably considers the new features of 5G and customer customization requirements, and helps customers realize the evolution and development of terminals at the minimum cost.
It is worth mentioning that FG370 has demonstrated excellent product performance since its launch, and continues to empower customers with stable and efficient product progress. The FG370 module was officially released in October 2022, and it took less than 3 months to obtain CE and GCF certifications, which is enough to prove the leading product progress and excellent product performance of FG370. FG370 has achieved mass production a few days ago, and the first mass-produced products have landed on customer terminal equipment, providing users in multiple industries with a smoother and broader 5G networking experience.
FG370拥有极佳的产品性能，由内至外均“内外兼修”。得益于MediaTekT830平台卓越性能，FG370在主频性能、千兆级吞吐性能上均有革命性升级。在不增加CPU负载的前提下，FG370即可为5G网络传输到以太网或Wi-Fi提供千兆级的吞吐性能。
于5G速率与信号覆盖上，FG370支持FDD和TDD混合模式下高达300MHz频宽和下行的NR 4CA（四载波聚合），最高下行速率可跃至7.01Gbps。再者，FG370采用兼容5G的8RX（接收天线）设计，在频宽不变的情况下，提升下行速率。此外，FG370支持发射功率高达29dBm的PC1.5，大大提升5G上行速率与5G有效覆盖范围。
以上过硬的“内在素养”令FG370在向外拓展上展现丰富性与灵活性。FG370拥有丰富外设接口（包括3个PCI-Express、USB3.2、两个速率高达10GbE的USXGMII接口），并可通过PCM/SPI接口扩展至SLIC功能，从而支持RJ11电话接口。这使得FG370应用方案更加多元化。
联发科技无线通讯事业部二总经理苏文光表示：“我们十分荣幸能与广和通在FG370上有持续的产品合作。如今，基于FG370的FWA解决方案正式发布，并已在终端设备上实现量产，强有力地赋能多个5G领域。后续，双方仍会在产品、生态以及行业拓展上保持积极合作，共同将5G更广泛地拓展至更多应用领域。”
广和通IoT MBB产品管理部总经理陶曦表示：“我们很高兴与联发科技携手推出基于FG370的FWA解决方案，这标志着双方产品合作上又进入一个激动人心的里程碑时刻。FG370率先量产也是双方保持紧密合作的成果，我们相信FG370卓越的蜂窝能力与性能将为以FWA为代表的高带宽终端带来无限可能。广和通与联发科技未来将在5G产品与技术上进行更深入的合作。”
