Skyworks Deploys Advanced 5G Infrastructure Solutions

Enables High Capacity Small Cell and Massive MIMO Platforms

MUNICH, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 13, 2018-- Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:SWKS), an innovator of high performance analog semiconductors connecting people, places and things, today announced that it is ramping 5G small cell and massive MIMO (multiple-input, multiple-output) solutions that significantly enhance network efficiency, delivering higher capacity with greater coverage. Small cells are low-power, easy-to-implement radio access points that operate in both licensed and unlicensed spectrums with a typical range of 10 to several hundred meters. Mobile operators are utilizing a scalable grid of small cells to facilitate powerful, high-speed connectivity in support of data intensive and quickly emerging 5G applications. Skyworks’ portfolio creates viable new options for cellular and wireless providers to cost-effectively address mounting system requirements.

“Skyworks’ leading small cell architectures are enabling high density platforms, creating faster, more robust communication and, in turn, expanding carrier capacity,” said David Stasey, vice president and general manager of diversified analog solutions for Skyworks. “We are bringing next generation networks closer to subscribers while at the same time partnering with smartphone manufacturers via our innovative Sky5™ suite. Our comprehensive approach across both infrastructure and user equipment uniquely positions us to empower end-to-end 5G connectivity.”

According to Research and Markets, the total value of the small cell market is expected to grow from $13 billion in 2017 to more than $58 billion by 2024.
