Certification process represents a new approach
in ecosystem development
WASHINGTON, April 13,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Wireless Innovation Forum
(WInnForum) announced today that it has received a declaration by
Airspan Networks Inc., a subsidiary of Airspan Network Holdings
Inc. (NYSE: MIMO), that its 5G AirSpeed 2900,
working with Airspan Domain Proxy for CBRS operation, has passed
the WInnForum's Release 2 test case for Enhanced CBRS Group
Handling. Airspan is the first company to have passed a test
case.
"We are proud to achieve another milestone as we continue to be
a leader in the industry in CBRS and 5G innovation and ecosystem
development acceleration," said Eli
Leizerovitz, head of products, Airspan. "This builds on a
long legacy of tech innovation and leadership at Airspan, as we
continue to focus on providing innovative 5G and CBRS solutions and
deployments for our customers and many strategic partners."
A key element of the WInnForum plan for its second
release of the CBRS baseline standards is that members support the
ecosystem by self-certifying that their products fully meet the
requirements for features as defined in the Release 2 standards
found here:
https://cbrs.wirelessinnovation.org/enhancements-to-baseline-specifications.
"Release 2 promotes new features, functions and capabilities in
CBRS beyond what is required for regulatory compliance," said
Spectrum Sharing Committee Co-Chair Richard
Bernhardt (WISPA). "SASs and CBSDs may then choose to
implement these industry features to expand CBRS ecosystem
capabilities."
"This elevates Airspan's strong CBRS portfolio to move beyond
regulatory compliance and enable features desired by operators and
end users that make CBRS deployments more optimized and effective,"
added Leizerovitz.

Enhanced CBSD Group Handing can be found here:
