5G Mobile Access (FWA)

With this service/solution, Swisscom is enabling the fastest Internet available to Business customers in locations of temporary business sites and in areas where standard network expansion is not possible. Swisscom is using 5G Mobile Access to augment its fixed network infrastructure and increase the availability of ultra-broadband with bandwidths of up to 1 Gbps.

5G FWA Great Potential for Business Use-cases

Friederike Hoffmann, Head of Connected Business Solutions at Swisscom, says: “5G FWA offers great potential for our business customers. They can use it to benefit from the fastest Internet at their sites and be ready to make full use of all services.”

5G FWA Solution as a Backup (failover)

For the Internet connection provided via a fibre optic or copper connection, 5G FWA acts as a failover, with the additional security of a mobile network connection. Hence, the 5G FWA solution can be used as a 5G mobile backup (failover). 5G FWA requires mobile coverage with 5G or 4G.
