Fronthaul/Backhaul Networks

Fronthaul and backhaul networks are parts of mobile communication infrastructure that connect different elements of a cellular system. The fronthaul links the radio antennas (which communicate wirelessly with our devices) to the base stations or central units, transmitting raw data signals. The backhaul connects these base stations to the core network, handling the data traffic between cell sites and the broader internet or telecom systems. Both are essential for delivering reliable, high-speed mobile services, especially as networks evolve to support faster data rates and advanced technologies like 5G.
