AGC and Nokia collaborate to introduce innovative transparent antennas for dense outdoor and indoor coverage
AGC Glass Europe and Nokia have partnered for the middle East region to transform the way telecom service providers expand network coverage. Through this partnership, Nokia will integrate AGC’s WAVE by AGC glass antenna technology, delivering a seamless connectivity solution designed for modern urban environments.
Nokia and AGC to revolutionize network coverage and deployment efficiency through innovative transparent glass antennas
As demand for network capacity continues to surge, operators face increasing challenges in deploying traditional antennas due to strict permitting requirements, aesthetic concerns, and high installation costs. Nokia and AGC’s glass antenna innovation overcomes these barriers by enabling discreet yet high-performance connectivity, allowing operators to enhance both indoor and outdoor network performance with ease.
Collaboration addresses challenges in urban and historic areas by enabling seamless outdoor and indoor connectivity
By leveraging transparent glass antenna technology, telecom service providers can significantly accelerate network deployments in dense cityscapes, historic districts, and modern architectural environments. This solution eliminates the need for complex camouflage installations, reduces the risk of vandalism, and streamlines the approval process for new network rollouts.
Solution accelerates 5G expansion while reducing costs and deployment complexities
The partnership between Nokia and AGC represents a significant leap forward in 5G and private wireless deployments, ensuring that enterprises and service providers can seamlessly meet evolving connectivity demands. By prioritizing efficiency, scalability, and aesthetic integration, this collaboration sets a new standard for next-generation network solutions.
