Intracom Telecom, a global telecommunications systems and solutions vendor revealed that EOLO SpA has chosen its WiBAS G5 dual-BS base station device. This selection is part of EOLO’s expansion plan for its 28 GHz ultra-fast wireless network throughout Italy.
EOLO awarded multimillion expansion contract to Intracom Telecom following a lengthy testing of device at laboratory and the field. The deployment of the WiBAS G5 dual-BS is part of EOLO’s investment in its fast expanding network across Italy, aiming at staying at the top of Italian FWA (fixed wireless access) service providers, with a portfolio of ultra-broadband services to residential and SME (small and medium-sized enterprises) subscribers. It is reminded that EOLO has been using the WiBAS platform since 2017 fuelling its success in providing its subscribers with high quality ultrabroadband Internet connection.
The WiBAS G5 dual-BS interoperate with Intracom Telecom’s terminal stations already installed and operated by EOLO. With its new hardware and software features, it achieves twice the subscriber capacity and three times the throughput when compared to the previous generation device.
Intracom Telecom’s WiBAS G5 dual-BS platform can be leveraged by operators to build gigabit services through software upgrades and achieve download speeds equivalent to 5G. The device includes novel technologies for this category of devices, such as MU-MIMO. The provisioning process of the device is performed via uniMS SON Gateway, a software platform accelerating the service activation by automatically discovering terminals and instantly provisioning the subscription profile.
Commenting on the partnership between Eolo and Intracom Telecom, Guido Garrone, co-CEO of Network Division, EOLO, says, “Building a reliable and future-proof network requires determination and a careful planning that EOLO and Intracom Telecom have carried-out together over the past 6 years of collaboration.

EOLO’s mission has always been to guarantee access to an ultra-fast, high-performance and resilient network to all Italian families and businesses, reaching the most remote areas of the country, creating value for the territory in which it operates.
