Most of the 5G modem we covered are designed for mobile devices, but 5G technology also brings opportunities for fixed wireless access routers (FWA routers) potentially replacing fixed broadband modem routers, as well as for 5G mobile hotspots to add coverage in areas without reliable cellular signal. Those are the two markets targetted by the just-announced 7nm MediaTek T750 quad-core Arm processor with support for sub-6GHz frequencies aiming to affordable broadband connectivity to areas with limited DSL, cable, or fiber services, or on the contrary adding wireless services in suburban, rural, and less developed areas. Mediatek T750 5G SoC highlights: Processor – Quad-core Arm Cortex-A55 CPU GPU / Display – Embedded GPU and display driver to support up to 720p displays Cellular Networking 5G NR FR1 modem with sub-6GHz frequencies support and two-component carrier aggregation (2CC CA) for extended coverage Standalone and non-standalone (SA/NSA) modes supported 5CC LTE carrier aggregation […]
