Reliable Communication, Everywhere You Need to Be

6x the Uplink Power = More Stable Connections

When you go wherever the job takes you, it can be hard to stay in touch with your team, leadership, and support staff. Nextivity HPUE devices are the highest-power routers available – increasing your ability to maintain a connection . Nextivity HPUE  IntelliRange® Technology enables voice, data, and video in rural, edge-of-network, and shielded locations where signal coverage may be spotty for standard devices.

High Power User Equipment (HPUE) is a specialized class of cellular device with up to 6x the uplink power of standard devices. Nextivity SHIELD MegaFi 2 and MegaGo 2 HPUE routers maintain a reliable cellular connection to the macro network and then use that signal to create a Wi-Fi hot spot anyone can use.

In the U.S., Nextivity can help you identify purchasing vehicles, acquire funds, and structure payments to shorten implementation timelines. Through our extensive partner network, Nextivity solutions and services can be acquired through a number of procurement programs, without an RFP.

What Causes Spotty Connectivity?

Distance to Tower

Uplink power on standard devices is not as strong as the power of the signal coming from the tower, making it difficult to send communication when towers are far away.

Terrain

In remote areas, especially where there are hills, valleys, trees, and other natural features, the landscape itself can interfere with signals.

Man-Made Structures

Building shadows, garages, and other urban structures often create pockets of dead zones. Having to connect and reconnect can waste valuable time in an emergency.

Use Cases for National / Regional Governments and Agencies

With governmental offices, agencies, fleets, and personnel spread across large areas and remote locales, connectivity issues can surface at any time. Equip your buildings, teams, and vehicles with the highest power router available to maximize the chances of obtaining and maintaining a strong signal. Nextivity 5G HPUE solutions support data, voice, and video in places standard equipment doesn’t work.

  • Emergency use, 9-1-1, life-critical connectivity
  • Driver / officer / agent safety
  • Dash cameras
  • Sensors for doors, gun racks, lights/sirens, narco boxes, etc.
  • Empowering the Vehicle Area Network (VAN) to connect laptops, tablets, scanners, etc.
  • Employee and visitor connectivity and business continuity for brick-and-mortar sites in rural/remote/shielded areas
  • Portable connectivity for catastrophe response
  • Military and shore patrol

From the Field

“With FirstNet® MegaRange [Nextivity HPUE devices], we noticed a substantial coverage improvement in some remote areas, and we sustained high data speeds even as we moved further away from wireless towers. This will be especially advantageous for public safety and first responders who have high uplink needs, such as drone teams sending video back to operations centers.” ”

Connectivity On-the-Go

Turn Every Vehicle into a Communication Hub

Equip your teams with high-power routers to turn all your vehicles into reliable Wi-Fi hot spots. Coordinating a response to a natural disaster and responding to unfolding situations in unfamiliar territory requires coordination. Increase the chances of getting and maintaining a connection for voice, data, and video with vehicle-mounted MegaFi 2 devices or MegaGo field cases. Create QR codes to help users quickly log on to the network.

The certified FirstNet Trusted™ SHIELD MegaFi 2 is exclusively available for purchase in the U.S. through AT&T sales channels.

Global (Outside United States)

Nextivity SHIELD HPUE devices available outside the U.S. support high power connectivity on Bands 3, 20, and 28. The availability of devices with priority and preemption varies from country to country. Nextivity regional sales teams can provide information specific to your area.

Accessories Extend Connectivity Range

Pair SHIELD MegaGo with Third-Party Devices to Solve Problems

Nextivity HPUE devices can be deployed in conjunction with other products to solve unique connectivity challenges. In the U.S., one example is using a portable MegaGo 2  with a miniCRD® to double the distance you can be away from a tower and still connect.  All miniCRDs have high power capabilities – when you pair them with a MegaGo you can turn, for example, a ½ mile transmission radius into a 1 mile+ transmission radius. Another example is using the MegaGo 2 to feed a mesh network. Nextivity has launched trials with peiker International, aimed at developing a quick-deploy, wide-area Wi-Fi mesh network for large operational areas. A Wi-Fi mesh network would, for example, be particularly useful in remote rescue-type operations, or to expand the reach of Wi-Fi around a command vehicle to allow teams on scene to organize and spread out.
