Is now a good time for businesses to invest in higher-capacity infrastructure technology?
Intracom Telecom has released the UltraLink-GX80 Advanced and UltraLink-GX80 Dual, two new mmWave radio models that have shipped for deployment. The units provide 15 Gbps full-duplex capacity, designed to support high-throughput network requirements.
Why it matters
These radios aim to lower capital and operating expenditures for network operators by increasing throughput efficiency within existing spectrum allocations. The release leverages Intracom Telecom's two decades of wireless engineering experience to address the rising demand for higher backhaul capacity.
The new hardware delivers 15 Gbps full-duplex capacity, a 50% increase over conventional market solutions. The UltraLink-GX80 Advanced operates in a 1+0 configuration, while the UltraLink-GX80 Dual achieves this throughput using a single 1000 MHz channel.
The players
Intracom Telecom
A global telecommunications systems developer with two decades of experience in wireless technology and a legacy of deploying nearly 50,000 mmWave radio units.
The details
The UltraLink-GX80 series utilizes millimeter-wave (mmWave) technology — high-frequency radio waves used for short-range, high-bandwidth data transmission — to reach these speeds. The Advanced model employs a 1+0 configuration, a standard architecture using a single radio for full-duplex transmission, while the Dual model optimizes efficiency within a single 1000 MHz wide channel. Intracom Telecom, which has deployed nearly 50,000 mmWave radios historically, developed these units to maximize data throughput per assigned spectrum.
Timeline
October 12, 2026: The UltraLink-GX80 Advanced and Dual radio models became available for deployment.
The Tech Race
The development follows the industry's ongoing push to maximize spectral efficiency within E-Band microwave backhaul radio standards. By hitting 15 Gbps through optimized channel use, the new models signal a push to outperform conventional hardware performance benchmarks.
Network operators and service providers can deploy these units immediately to upgrade their existing backhaul infrastructure. The hardware is specifically engineered to reduce the total cost of ownership by increasing throughput while streamlining operational workflows.
The takeaway
This launch highlights a shift toward high-capacity, single-channel mmWave performance for global network backhaul. Operators should monitor the hardware's real-world field deployment results against these 15 Gbps performance benchmarks as they look to scale their networks.
