Why 5G Small Cells Matter

5G Small Cells are critical for enhancing network capacity and coverage in areas where macro cell towers are impractical. These compact, high-performance base stations deliver low-latency, high-speed connectivity, making them ideal for dense urban settings, rural communities, and specialized applications like smart cities, IoT, and industrial automation. CableFree’s 5G Small Cell solutions, part of our Emerald range, leverage advanced Software Defined Radio (SDR) technology, ensuring flexibility, scalability, and future-proof performance.

A Game-Changing Mobile RAN Solution

The star of the CableFree 5G Cenex 2025 demo was the innovative use of eCargo bikes to deploy a mobile 5G RAN solution. Unlike conventional vehicles, eCargo bikes offer unmatched mobility, allowing network operators to bring 5G coverage to challenging locations, such as narrow urban streets or remote rural areas. This eco-friendly approach reduces deployment costs and environmental impact while ensuring robust connectivity for mission-critical applications.
