“We are pleased to start the distribution of Cambium Networks’ platforms.

The ongoing support and expertise Cambium Networks gives its partners are also extremely valuable, and we look forward to helping to connect currently unconnected enterprises of all sizes and verticals across the region,” said Murali, Aircom Systems Ltd Managing Director.
“Aircom Systems Limited brings a formidable partner network and enterprise networking footprint in the region. Aircom Systems’ strong presence locally in the EAC markets, coupled with Cambium’s disruptive enterprise offerings and existing wireless deployments in these markets, will make for a successful alliance,” said Cambium Networks’ Regional Vice President for Europe, Middle East, and Africa, Martín de la Serna.
Aircom Systems distribution partnerships deliver wireless communications that work for businesses, communities, and cities Africa wide. Millions of our radios are deployed to connect people, places, and things with a unified wireless fabric that spans multiple standards and frequencies of fixed wireless and Wi-Fi, all managed centrally via the cloud. Our multi-gigabit wireless fabric offers a compelling value proposition over traditional fiber and alternative wireless solutions. We work with our Cambium-certified Connected Partners to deliver purpose-built networks for service provider, enterprise, industrial, and government connectivity solutions in urban, suburban, and rural environments, with wireless that just works.
With lingering effects of the COVID pandemic, 2021 was a difficult year. Cambium Networks correctly predicted that remote work was not going away and that people would migrate out of the congested city centers. We also predicted a growth in private broadband networks. On the technology front, they foresaw that millimeter-wave technology would have an impact on city centers, which is starting to appear.
In Uganda, users saw improvement and expansion of wireless microwave broadband internet across several locations outside the city center to mainly residential areas.
According to industry experts, 2022 will see continued demand for high-performance wireless broadband driving the deployment of hybrid wireless/wired networks for service providers and enterprise private networks. Adoption of Wi-Fi 6 technology and the opening up of the 6 GHz frequency bands will drive rapid adoption.
