Boingo expands private 5G with Globalstar
Boingo Wireless is adding Globalstar’s XCOM RAN Supercell platform to its private network lineup, which already includes cellular and Wi-Fi options. The move is aimed at customers that want private 5G coverage in venues such as airports, stadiums, bases and large campuses, where Boingo already runs connectivity services.
By integrating Globalstar’s platform, Boingo can use Globalstar’s mid-band spectrum and radio gear to build or upgrade private 5G systems alongside existing Wi-Fi. The partnership is pitched as a way for enterprises and public-sector sites to run more controlled, higher-capacity wireless networks without relying only on public mobile operators.
