Edgeware Indoor 5G CPE-EC556

Edge Chain EC556

IDU 5G CPE Pro

Overview

EDGE CHAIN EC556 is a 5G wireless gateway CPE or 5G Indoor CPE that implements the conversion between 5G NR/LTE wireless data and wired Ethernet data. It supports 802.11ax WiFi6, 4*4 MIMO, and can be used independently.

EDGE CHAIN EC556supports 5G NR Sub6 bands, and LTE Cat16 UE category, which provides the stable data, voice, Wi-Fi, maintenance and management service to home and enterprise users.

High Performance

EDGE CHAIN EC556 supports the worldwide 5G NR network, the highest data rate can arrive 2.5Gbps. And the WLAN supports the newest IEEE 802.11ax standards. The AX3600 WiFi data rate can easily supply the HD video, online game, and high-quality network applications. The MU-MIMO and beamforming function can ensure the high data rate and signal quality when several users are using simultaneously.

Versatility

Besides the basic 5G NR and WLAN functions, EDGE CHAIN EC556also support VoLTE, SMS, firewall, VPN, QoS, etc. It satisfies the multi-directional requirements of users. Multiple management and maintenance methods (TR069/CLI/APP*) are convenient for checking and operating. The software online update tool will also constantly provide the upgrade of these functions.
