Private LTE and Cellular IoT are being encouraged through the unveiling of freeRAN.net by Ubiik, aimed at fostering innovation in license-free wireless communication networks.
Ubiik, a leading provider of private LTE solutions, IoT connectivity, and advanced wireless technologies, has unveiled a new website, [www.freeRAN.net](http://www.freeRAN.net), to promote the use of private LTE and cellular IoT in license-free bands. The website centres around Ubiik's product, freeRANTM, a pLTE base station designed for the 915 MHz unlicensed band.
The key benefit of utilizing the ISM band is the cost reduction, as it removes the need for companies to spend millions on spectrum to build a private network. freeRANTM offers increased throughput (with either Cat-1 or Cat-M1), security (with SIM authentication and encryption), and the ability to roam to public networks for resiliency, compared to traditional technologies used in the unlicensed bands.
The compact, lightweight, ruggedized, and low-power profile of freeRANTM reduces both the equipment footprint and the overall capital expense. It can be deployed quickly, similar to WiFi routers, and can be mounted on existing infrastructure. End users of freeRANTM can utilize Ubiik's goNMS Network Management Solution for easy configuration and monitoring of their freeRANTM network.
The website outlines ideal use cases to leverage the license-free spectrum provided by freeRANTM, making it appealing to various industries such as Utilities, Mining, Oil & Gas, Transport, and Construction. These industries require the ability to connect thousands of devices simultaneously, which freeRANTM provides.
Ubiik has a strong track record in LTE-M/NB-IoT innovations and is committed to pushing the boundaries of connectivity to empower businesses with scalable, secure, and cost-effective solutions. To learn more about Ubiik and freeRANTM, visit their website at [www.ubiik.com](http://www.ubiik.com).
