mmWave + sub-6 dual connectivity for FWA reliability

Why Dual Connectivity Matters for FWA

mmWave links are susceptible to sudden blockage and environmental attenuation that can interrupt broadband service. For FWA subscribers expecting wireline-like reliability, momentary outages are unacceptable. Dual connectivity solves this by maintaining simultaneous connections to both a mmWave cell for high throughput and a sub-6 GHz cell for reliable fallback coverage. The sub-6 GHz link provides continuous baseline connectivity while the mmWave link delivers peak speeds when available. This architecture ensures FWA subscribers experience consistent service quality regardless of momentary…
