In modern industry, network downtime does not slow operations. It stops them. Autonomous vehicles halt mid-route. Robotic arms lose synchronization. Real-time inspection systems drop frames. The wireless network has become as critical as power distribution and process control.
AmpliTech Group has engineered a Private 5G platform designed specifically for this level of responsibility. Built on Open RAN principles with 7.2 functional split architecture, hardware-accelerated baseband processing and multi-vendor 5G Core interoperability, the system delivers deterministic latency, high spectral efficiency and intelligent radio control in environments where performance is measured in milliseconds and operational risk. This is enterprise wireless built as infrastructure, not as best-effort connectivity.
7.2 Functional Split Architecture for Scalable Performance
Figure 1 7.2 functional split radio architecture.
At the heart of the platform is a 7.2 functional split radio architecture (see Figure 1) that balances processing efficiency and fronthaul bandwidth optimization. Lower PHY functions including FFT, digital up-conversion and beamforming precoding are implemented within the radio unit, while higher PHY and MAC processing reside in the distributed unit. This distribution reduces fronthaul transport requirements and enables scalable deployment across multiple radio sites.
The radio unit supports sub 6 GHz operation in bands n77, n78 and n79 covering 3300 to 4200 MHz. Channel bandwidths from 20 to 100 MHz with 30 kHz subcarrier spacing provide flexible spectrum allocation. Downlink modulation supports up to 256 QAM while uplink supports 64 and 256 QAM, maximizing spectral efficiency under favorable channel conditions.
Adaptive modulation and coding continuously adjust to BLER, RSRP, RSRQ and SNR measurements, maintaining link stability in reflective industrial environments filled with metal structures, moving equipment and dense device populations. Multiple power configurations, including 4 x 250 mW, 4 x 5 W and 4 x 40 W, allow deployment from indoor production floors to expansive logistics yards and energy facilities.
High Performance Baseband and Deterministic Latency
The DU and CU are built on Intel Ice Lake, Sapphire Rapids or Granite Rapids processors with 32 core configurations and up to 256 GB memory capacity. Forward error correction is hardware-accelerated using Intel Mt Bryce ACC200 technology. Ciphering and encryption are offloaded through Intel QAT acceleration to maintain high throughput even under heavy secure traffic loads.
The system supports up to 128 active users per cell and 256 connected users, with up to three cells per DU. Downlink throughput reaches approximately 1.4 to 1.5 Gb per second per cell. Optimized uplink configurations achieve up to 350 Mb per second. End-to-end latency remains near 9 ms under enterprise deployment conditions.
IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol with telecom boundary clock and time transfer slave clock modes ensures synchronization accuracy across distributed radio nodes, enabling stable TDD frame alignment and predictable scheduling for time-sensitive traffic.
Open 5G Core with Multi-Vendor Flexibility
The 3GPP compliant 5G Core supports Control and User Plane Separation and open interfaces for interoperability (see Figure 2). Enterprises can deploy AmpliTech’s native 5G Core or integrate third-party 5G Core partners according to their operational strategy. This flexibility ensures long-term architectural independence while enabling local breakout and mobile edge computing for time-critical applications such as machine vision analytics, predictive maintenance and remote robotic control.

RAN Intelligence That Prioritizes What Matters
Figure 3 Near-real-time and non-real-time optimization.
The integrated RAN Intelligent Controller supports both near-real-time and non-real-time optimization (see Figure 3). Policy-driven traffic steering, anomaly detection and KPI monitoring allow the network to adapt to operational demands.
In a smart manufacturing facility, robotic control flows are prioritized over non-critical data streams. In mining operations, autonomous drilling equipment and remote vehicle communications are protected against congestion. In airports and logistics hubs, mobility management ensures seamless connectivity across large coverage areas. The network becomes context-aware rather than static.
FWA with Outdoor and Indoor CPE
Beyond core industrial operations, enterprises require reliable broadband extension to offices, control rooms and remote facilities. AmpliTech provides both outdoor and indoor CPE solutions designed to extend Private 5G through Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) (see Figure 4).
The Outdoor CPE is built on the Qualcomm Snapdragon X62 platform and delivers Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with 27 dBm transmit power and 4 dBi antenna gain. With IP67 environmental protection and an operating temperature range from -40°C to 70°C, it is engineered for harsh outdoor environments such as mining sites, energy installations and industrial campuses.
Figure 4 Fixed Wireless Access example.
The indoor CPE converts 5G connectivity into secure wired Ethernet output, enabling connection of PCs, industrial controllers, Wi-Fi access points and edge computing devices. Together, these CPE solutions allow Private 5G to function not only as an operational network but also as a high performance FWA broadband infrastructure.
CBRS Integration with Google and Federated Wireless
For deployments in the U.S. CBRS band, AmpliTech integrates with leading spectrum access system providers, including Google and Federated Wireless. The WinnForum and FCC-compliant Domain Proxy manages signaling between Citizens Broadband Radio Service Devices and the SAS, coordinating across incumbent, Priority Access License and General Authorized Access tiers. This integration simplifies regulatory compliance, maximizes spectrum efficiency and accelerates deployment timelines.
