There is a huge money saving opportunity for mobile operators in using outdoor antennas as part of a Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) solution. Normally operators only consider outdoor antennas as a solution to fix signal problems for customers on the fringe of reception, but in this webinar Poynting will show that there is a real business case for a MNO to save money when using outdoor antennas as part of their FWA solution.

This is one of the rare occasions when a technical approach can solve a business problem. An operator can get much more revenue from the same infrastructure, as they can increase the capacity of a base station by a factor of 4 or 5, by adding outdoor antennas to their solution.

Want to increase the revenue from your current infrastructure?
