Delivering Gbps-class capability in a compact form factor for wireless ISPs and system integrators serving enterprises globally

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., October 14, 2025 — Cambium Networks (NASDAQ: CMBM), a leading provider of wireless broadband solutions, today announces the launch of its latest ePMP subscriber modules: the Force 4518 (5 GHz) and Force 4616 (6 GHz). These new radios deliver on cost efficiency, Gbps-class throughput, small form factor integrated panel design, and support flexible deployment across point-to-multipoint (PMP) or point-to-point (PTP) topologies. Operating in the 5 GHz or 6 GHz bands, the Force 4518 and Force 4616 interoperate with ePMP 4000 Series Access Points. Service providers can deploy them as subscriber-facing CPEs in PMP networks, or as economical PTP bridges for enterprise, industrial, or campus connectivity. In parallel, Cambium expands its Bridge-in-a-Box portfolio with the BIAB 5 GHz solution built around the Force 4518—a pre-paired, plug-and-play kit ideal for rapid Layer 2 bridging between remote sites.

Force 4518, Force 4616 and BIAB are in production now and will arrive in customers’ hands before the end of 2025.

These new solutions integrate within the broader Cambium ONE Network portfolio and specifically with the ePMP 4000 Series ecosystem, Cambium’s fourth-generation access network platform leveraging the proven built-for-purpose ePMP air interface and the economics of 802.11ax chipsets. The 4000 series is the latest generation of ePMP which has more than 5 million radios deployed over 11+ years of experience.

When property owners and operators evaluate managed Wi-Fi, the conversation always comes back to one question: how does it impact NOI and ROI? PropTech IQ, a neutral third-party analysis firm specializing in property technology, provided a clear answer when using their Impact Analysis Reports to compare Cambium Networks’ managed Wi-Fi solution with a leading competitor, on a cash-on-cash basis. The findings show a significant financial and operational advantage for properties deploying Cambium’s ONE Network approach.

Independent Validation from PropTech IQ

PropTech IQ is known for their unique SaaS platform that can deliver unbiased, AI-powered ‘Impact Analysis Reports’ designed to quantify the financial return of property technology investments. In this case, PropTech IQ’s platform was used to independently model the cash-on-cash returns for a 316-unit multifamily community, comparing Cambium Networks’ managed Wi-Fi solution against a leading competitor, under identical assumptions (e.g., deployment costs and revenue premiums). By inputting property-specific data and running simulations, PropTech IQ’s analysis provided a trusted, data-backed evaluation of how each solution affects cash flows relative to initial investments, focusing on metrics like annual pre-tax cash yield.

The Cambium Difference: It’s in the Numbers

The results were decisive. Cambium’s solution projected per-unit CapEx at $578 with predictable monthly OpEx of $20. Factoring in a $60 monthly unit premium for the service provided, the analysis forecasted NOI improvements growing from $32,135 in year three to $96,068 annually by year ten. The total valuation impact, however, exceeded $1.4M across the contract term.

In contrast, the competitor’s solution, with a much higher CapEx but the same predictable monthly OpEx of $20, showed significantly slower cashflow positivity, weaker ROI, and reduced NOI uplift. That means property owners face higher risk and delayed returns if they choose the alternative vendor. For investors and operators, those differences directly affect profitability and long-term asset value.

ONE Network Advantage: Economics

What explains this performance gap? Cambium Networks takes a fundamentally different approach to managed Wi-Fi. Rather than delivering isolated access points, Cambium’s ONE Network integrates Wi-Fi, switching, fiber-to-the-room, security, and cloud management into a unified platform.

 The Cambium architecture:

  • Reduces CapEx by maximizing performance per investment dollar.
  • Minimizes OpEx with automation, simplified deployment, and fewer manual processes.
  • Enhances Resident Experience through reliable, seamless connectivity across the property.
  • Empowers MSPs to scale profitably, differentiate services, and deliver consistent outcomes.

By consolidating the full network stack into a single pane of glass with cnMaestro™ management, Cambium eliminates the inefficiencies and support costs that competitors can’t avoid. The result is superior economics for property owners and more reliable service delivery for MSPs.

The Bigger Picture: Managed Wi-Fi as a Profit Center

As residents increasingly demand fast, secure, and reliable internet, managed Wi-Fi has shifted from being a utility cost to a revenue driver. With Cambium, property owners can confidently market premium connectivity as a differentiator that not only boosts tenant satisfaction but also strengthens long-term financial performance. For MSPs, Cambium’s platform opens the door to delivering high-quality service at a compelling total cost of ownership.

Independent Proof of Cambium’s Value

The PropTech IQ analysis validates what Cambium customers already know: choosing Cambium Networks delivers stronger NOI, higher valuation impact, and more resilient operations than the competition. Property owners seeking predictable financial outcomes and MSPs looking for scalable service delivery both benefit from Cambium’s ONE Network advantage.

The numbers don’t lie: Cambium Networks is the clear choice for managed Wi-Fi in MDUs.

Jeden system, centralne zarządzanie i niższe koszty.

Firma Amplus, czołowy polski producent i dystrybutor świeżych owoców i warzyw zmodernizowała swoje sieci Wi-Fi, wymieniając punkty dostępowe Wi-Fi oraz lokalne kontrolery na system cnMaestro. Przeniesienie systemu zarządzania do globalnej infrastruktury chmurowej dało możliwość centralnego zarządzania całą infrastrukturą Wi-Fi, we wszystkich lokalizacjach z poziomu jednego pulpitu. Przyniosło także wymierne oszczędności i pozwoliło wdrożyć do sieci nowe AP Wi-Fi 7. Przyjrzyjmy się bliżej projektowi i jego skutkom.

Wyzwanie – rozproszone zarządzanie infrastrukturą i brak zasięgu w chłodniach

Amplus to czołowy polski producent i dystrybutor świeżych owoców i warzyw, działający od ponad 30 lat. Rodzinna firma z międzynarodowym zasięgiem zarządza całym łańcuchem dostaw, od nasiona aż po stół. Dostarcza bezpieczne i smaczne produkty na skalę globalną. W nowoczesnych centrach logistycznych firmy owoce i warzywa przechodzą kolejne profesjonalnie zarządzane etapy, od przyjęcia, przez przechowywanie, przygotowanie aż po obróbkę. Wszystko to odbywa się w nowoczesnych obiektach, w południowej Polsce, na powierzchni liczącej prawie 40 000 m².
Taki system wymaga szybkiej i profesjonalnej komunikacji na każdym etapie procesu i w każdym miejscu. Niezawodna łączność jest fundamentem sprawnego i efektywnego wykorzystania zasobów i informacji.

Przed wdrożeniem rozwiązań Cambium w firmie korzystano z innego systemu zarządzania siecią bezprzewodową, które opierało się na lokalnych kontrolerach, zainstalowanych oddzielnie w każdej lokalizacji.
Wraz z rozwojem firmy powstała potrzeba rozbudowy infrastruktury. Analizy wykazały, że dalsze utrzymywanie i modernizacja obecnego rozwiązania stają się nieopłacalne z powodu rosnących kosztów licencjonowania oraz ograniczeń architektury.

Dotychczasowe rozwiązanie nie pozwalało na centralne, zdalne zarządzanie wszystkimi lokalizacjami z poziomu jednej platformy. Każda zmiana konfiguracyjna wymagała działania na miejscu lub zdalnego dostępu do konkretnego kontrolera. To generowało dodatkowe nakłady czasowe i organizacyjne. W praktyce oznaczało to większe obciążenie dla działu IT i mniejszą elastyczność w reagowaniu na problemy.
Poprzednia technologia wykorzystywana w kontrolerach innego dostawcy nie wspierała także nowszych standardów (np. Wi-Fi 6 i7), a firma potrzebowała nowych technologii i integracji z nowymi rozwiązaniami.

Jeszcze większym wyzwaniem było zapewnienie niezawodnego sygnału Wi-Fi w trudnych warunkach środowiskowych. Szczególnie na halach oraz w komorach chłodniczych, gdzie panują wysoka wilgotność i niskie temperatury. Urządzenia były montowane wyłącznie na halach, ponieważ sygnał nie docierał do wnętrza komór chłodniczych nawet przy otwartych drzwiach. To utrudniało sprawną obsługę w tej części magazynów i wydłużało procesy.

Rozwiązanie – cnMeastro i wydajne punkty dostępowe Wi-Fi, także w trudnych warunkach chłodni

W ramach modernizacji i rozbudowy infrastruktury poprzedni system został całkowicie zastąpiony przez nowe urządzenia i platformę zarządzania Cambium Networks. Dzięki temu wyeliminowano wszystkie ograniczenia starego systemu i stworzono nowoczesne, skalowalne i wydajne środowisko sieciowe, gotowe na dalszy rozwój organizacji.
W projekcie wykorzystano wewnętrzne punkty dostępowe cnPilot e410 oraz odporne na trudne warunki zewnętrzne punkty dostępowe cnPilot e510, które charakteyzują się dużą odpornością na trudne warunki środowiskowe. Zastąpiono nimi stare urządzenia oraz dodano kolejne w rozbudowanych sekcjach infrastruktury.

Nowe punkty dostępowe Wi-Fi, przystosowane do pracy w trudnych warunkach zainstalowano również bezpośrednio w każdej komorze chłodniczej. To rozwiązanie pozwoliło na pełne pokrycie siecią nie tylko hal, ale też stref wcześniej całkowicie pozbawionych zasięgu.

Cała infrastruktura jest zarządzana zdalnie za pomocą wdrożonego kontrolera Cambium cnMaestroTM, który zastąpił wszystkie dotychczasowe kontrolery lokalne. Platforma cnMaestro zapewnia sprawne i wygodne centralne zarządzanie siecią we wszystkich lokalizacjach z poziomu bezpiecznej chmury.
Zmodernizowano także sieć w przestrzeni biurowej, gdzie firma zdecydowała się na wdrożenie Wi-Fi 7. Wykorzystano do tego celu punkty dostępowe X7-35X. Firma Amplus szczyci się tym, że była jedną z pierwszych firm w Polsce, która wdrożyła standard Wi-Fi w swojej infrastrukturze biurowej.

Rezultaty – pełny obraz sieci z jednego miejsca, spore oszczędności i sieć gotowa na rozwój i nowe tchnologie

Efektem gruntownej modernizacji infrastruktury sieciowej w firmie Amplus jest nowoczesna sieć, zapewniająca wydajną i komfortową obsługę systemów zarządzania. Nowe rozwiązania poprawiły zasięg i jakość sygnału we wszystkich przestrzeniach magazynowych oraz biurowych, a liczba zgłoszeń od użytkowników wyraźnie spadła. Zainstalowanie punktów dostępowych bezpośrednio w komorach chłodniczych pozwoliło na pełne pokrycie siecią nie tylko hal, ale też stref wcześniej całkowicie pozbawionych zasięgu.

Zastąpienie dotychczasowych lokalnych kontrolerów, które nie mogły współdziałać razem i być obsługiwane centralnie jednym nowym systemem cnMaestro dało możliwość centralnego zarządzania całą infrastrukturą Wi-Fi, we wszystkich lokalizacjach z poziomu jednego pulpitu. Nowa platforma daje także większą przejrzystość i lepszą kontrolę nad ruchem, parametrami pracy i awariami, pozwalając reagować zanim te się w ogóle pojawią.
Przeniesienie systemu zarządzania do globalnej infrastruktury chmurowej skutkuje także dużymi oszczędnościami, obniżając znacząco koszty licencji i eksploatacji. Administratorzy sieci w Amplus podkreślają również, że teraz mają infrastrukturę sieciową łatwiejszą w skalowaniu i gotową na rozwój i kolejne modernizacje wraz z rozwojem firmy i nowych technologii.

„Zdecydowaliśmy się na rozwiązania Cambium Networks, ponieważ szukaliśmy technologii, która nie tylko spełni nasze obecne wymagania, ale również pozwoli na bezpieczne skalowanie infrastruktury w przyszłości. Kluczowe były dla nas: centralne zarządzanie z poziomu chmury, wsparcie dla najnowszych standardów (w tym WiFi 7) oraz wysoka odporność sprzętu na trudne warunki środowiskowe – zwłaszcza w strefach chłodniczych i produkcyjnych. Cambium dało nam spójny, nowoczesny ekosystem, który w pełni odpowiada na nasze potrzeby.”

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., September 16, 2025 – Cambium Networks (NASDAQ: CMBM), a global leader in wireless and wired networking solutions, is seeing rapid adoption of its managed Wi-Fi and ONE Network solutions in Multi-Dwelling Unit (MDU) and Build-to-Rent (BTR) properties worldwide. The combination of cloud-managed simplicity, resident-grade performance, and clear business value is driving deployments across Europe and North America.

With the surge in demand for broadband-driven amenities, property owners are moving quickly to deliver secure, property-wide connectivity, turning resident expectations into real operational and financial gains.

Real-World Deployments

  • Hamburg, Germany: In a 32-unit apartment complex, FREDERIX Hotspot installed Cambium Wi-Fi APs across all units and shared spaces. The outcome: a reliable, app-managed network with seamless device onboarding, private resident networks, and full satisfaction across tenants.
  • California, USA: Wire Stream delivered managed Wi-Fi using Cambium solutions to 800 units across five buildings, generating $25,000/month in new revenue while minimizing IT support tickets and enabling future expansion.
  • Texas, USA: Hanover Preston Hollow’s deployment of XV2-2T1 Wi-Fi 6 APs and cnMaestro X management allowed personalized VLAN-per-resident service with no need for onsite IT—improving tenant experience and staff efficiency. “Elauwit and their use of the Cambium’s ONE Network helped us provide the level of service our residents expect—without overburdening our operations team,” said Bruce Fay, Manager of Information Technology, Hanover Company.
  • Italy: A luxury residential and commercial complex modernized its digital infrastructure using Cambium Wi-Fi and switching solutions—boosting value, convenience, and retention in a competitive urban market.

Research Confirms Wi-Fi is a Critical Amenity

According to Parks Associates, Wi-Fi has become a must-have for tenants and a strategic tool for owners:

  • 70% of MDU owners say Wi-Fi helps attract residents
  • Almost 80% say it increases property value
  • Over 50% of tenants now expect managed Wi-Fi to be available
  • Properties offering Wi-Fi see improved net promoter scores and increased lease renewals

“The managed Wi-Fi market is evolving, with residents expecting more and better connectivity options. Internet and Wi-Fi – high quality, reliable connectivity and coverage – are essential for properties when it comes to attracting and retaining residents, as well as enabling the next generation of smart property technologies.” Said Kristen Hanich, Director of Research, Parks Associates.

Findings from the ASK4 “Building a True Home” study further underscore the shift:

  • 77% of renters are more likely to move into a unit if Wi-Fi is bundled with rent
  • 84% say poor Wi-Fi would affect their decision to renew a lease
  • 93% expect Wi-Fi to be ready within days of move-in, but 37% report frustrations setting it up
  • 74% of residents want whole-building coverage, not just in-unit connectivity
  • Wi-Fi now ranks above furniture among desired rental package inclusions

Despite these trends, nearly 60% of prospective renters are not told that internet is included during the leasing process, representing a missed opportunity for differentiation and conversion.

Simplifying Connectivity with ONE Network

Cambium Networks addresses these challenges head-on with its ONE Network architecture—a unified solution that integrates Wi-Fi, switching, SD-WAN, and network security under a single cloud-managed platform (cnMaestro).

  • Pre-configured VLANs and private Wi-Fi per resident
  • Site-wide coverage using Wi-Fi 6 APs like the XV2-2T0 and XV3-8
  • Security, VPN, DNS filtering, and app control with NSE 3000 gateway
  • Cambium Networks is developing technologies that make life easier for both property managers and MSPs. MarketApps, Cambium’s app platform, streamlines MDU operations. The Installer app simplifies AP deployment for MSPs, while the Property Manager app enables easy resident access control through an intuitive interface.

The result is faster deployment, simplified support, and a resident experience that just works from the first day of the lease to renewal.

“Property managers are now seeing that Wi-Fi is core infrastructure for MDUs. It directly impacts resident satisfaction, retention, and revenue” said Scott Imhoff,  Senior Vice President – Product Management & Marketing, Cambium Networks. “With ONE Network, Cambium delivers reliable, scalable, and resident-ready solutions with compelling economics and operational simplicity.”
