SAN DIEGO - Airgain, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIRG), a provider of advanced wireless connectivity solutions, announced the certification of its AirgainConnect Fleet 5G Vehicle Gateway (AC-Fleet) for use on Verizon’s 5G network. The device, designed for public safety, utilities, transportation, and commercial fleets, promises enhanced connectivity with reduced installation complexity. This product launch comes as Airgain maintains a solid balance sheet with more cash than debt, according to InvestingPro data, positioning the company to support its product development initiatives.

The AC-Fleet integrates multiple components, including a 5G modem, Wi-Fi 6 router, and antennas, into a single roof-mounted unit. This design aims to eliminate issues associated with traditional setups, such as cable loss and installation difficulties. The product’s durability is highlighted by its IP67/IP69K-rated enclosure, ensuring it can withstand harsh conditions.

Brian Makarowski, Vice President of Product Management and Marketing at Airgain, emphasized the device’s ability to provide reliable connectivity for essential operations like GPS tracking and video streaming, now supported by Verizon’s network infrastructure.

The gateway’s features include support for multi-carrier eSIM profiles, enabling seamless network switching and failover. Its low-profile design and integrated components are engineered to support applications requiring low latency and high data throughput.

Airgain’s AC-Fleet is now available for purchase in the United States and Canada in both black and white options. The company promotes the device as offering a lower total cost of ownership due to its simplified installation and maintenance.

This certification marks a step forward for Airgain in the 5G connectivity space, with the AC-Fleet designed to meet the demands of mission-critical vehicle operations while leveraging Verizon’s 5G capabilities. Despite challenging market conditions, the company has maintained 8.14% revenue growth over the last twelve months. The information is based on a press release statement from Airgain, Inc.
