Benefits
Lightning-fast internet connectivity
Supports a broad range of spectrum with 5G NR speeds up to 7.01 Gbps/2.5 Gbps** (DL/UL) and 4G LTE DL speeds of up to 1.6 Gbps**, the NR5331 helps service providers raise network performance. Compliant with both Standalone (SA) and Non-Standalone (NSA) architecture, the NR5331 facilitates your deployment during 5G migration for faster FWA service rollouts.
Strengthen your competitive edge with Fixed Wireless Access (FWA)
Deploying NR5331 as part of FWA allows you to extend your 4G/5G service coverage into subscribers’ homes and workplaces without extra wire infrastructure. This secures the TCOs and increases business revenue by supporting a larger number of subscribers with a premium fixed-grade connection.
Remote management and upgrade
Through the 4G/5G radio interface, the NR5331 supports TR-369, remote GUI, and FTP to be fully configurable. Firmware Over-The-Air (FOTA) support enables remote firmware upgrades and troubleshooting through events triggered by the operators.
Commitment to sustainability
The NR5331 is built with 100% recycled plastics*** and features an easily removable case, simplifying refurbishment to extend its lifespan. Its packaging is designed with recycled paper and printed using VOC-free vegetable oil ink, minimizing waste and harmful substances while eliminating single-use plastics.
