AmpliTech Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMPG) announced the launch of two new 5G base station units designed to support expanding global 5G deployments across high-demand spectrum bands. The new systems support both traditional mobile operators and private 5G network operators as the industry accelerates its transition to Open RAN architecture. The two bands are Band 2 (PCS 1900 FDD) and Band 41 / n41 (2.5 GHz TDD).
The new radios support O-RAN Split 7-2a, 10G fronthaul over SFP+, and -48V DC telecom power, enabling streamlined integration into modern Open RAN architectures. AmpliTech's Band 41/n41 Outdoor O-RU and Band 2 Outdoor RU can support high-capacity urban 5G networks, airport and university private 5G systems, smart city video and IoT deployments, stadium and large venue connectivity, fixed wireless broadband for homes, and industrial automation in mining and ports.
According to industry forecasts, global Open RAN infrastructure spending is expected to grow significantly over the next several years as operators modernize legacy networks. For Band 2, target markets include the United States, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and others across the Americas. For Band 41, key countries include India, Japan, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Bahrain, and the United States.
These new radio models, along with other AmpliTech O-RAN 5G radios, will be on display at the Company's booth in Hall 2, Stand 2B20, at MWC Barcelona 2026, taking place March 2–5, 2026. MWC Barcelona is the world's largest and most influential connectivity event, bringing together global mobile and tech leaders to showcase advancements in 5G/6G, Open RAN, cloud, AI, and more.
“We are pleased our R&D group has made this new release of two strategic radio Bands to the growing ORAN 5G ecosystem right before our participation at MWC 2026 in Barcelona,” said Fawad Maqbool, AmpliTech Group’s CEO/CTO. “The Band 2 and Band 41/n41 O-RAN radios are available for customer evaluation and deployment programs immediately. These new 5G base station units significantly expand our addressable global market footprint. By supporting widely deployed spectrum bands across North America, Latin America, Asia, and the Middle East, we position AmpliTech to participate in both public carrier upgrades and rapidly growing private 5G network deployments. Our increasing portfolio, combined with key O-RAN certifications, reduces deployment risk for customers and accelerates purchasing decisions.”
