Momentum is in full swing for Mimosa this fall as we showcase our latest innovations at WISPAPALOOZA 2025, Booth #732 in Las Vegas. With new products, powerful firmware enhancements, and expanded global reach, we’re making it easier than ever for service providers to scale networks quickly and cost-effectively.
For decades, the same challenge has held broadband progress back: getting connectivity to the last mile. Permitting delays. Rights-of-way rejections. High trenching costs. Bureaucratic gridlock. All while communities remain unserved or underserved.
At Mimosa, we’ve never accepted those barriers as inevitable. We’ve been solving last-mile access challenges for years with Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) — not as a stopgap, but as a smart, scalable, proven alternative to fiber’s red tape.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mimosa Networks Expands Global Reach with C6x Lite Edition (LE) – The Cost-Effective Successor to the Popular C5x
Mimosa Networks, a global leader in carrier-grade fixed wireless broadband solutions, today announced the launch of the C6x Lite Edition (LE) — the next evolution of Mimosa’s powerful 6 Series platform and the official successor to the company’s widely deployed C5x radio.
As broadband demand continues to surge globally, service providers are searching for ways to extend capacity without breaking their budgets. Mimosa’s new C6x Lite Edition (LE) delivers exactly that — a powerful, future-proof solution built on the proven 6 Series platform, designed to maximize performance and affordability in one sleek package.
WISPAPALOOZA is right around the corner, and Mimosa is excited to be back in Las Vegas October 14–16 at the Parise/Horseshoe Convention Center. This annual event is the gathering place for Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs), industry leaders, and innovators committed to connecting communities.
In a world obsessed with “what’s next,” it’s easy to overlook proven technology that continues to deliver. The Mimosa C5c may have reached its End-of-Life status, but make no mistake—this radio is still a powerhouse for operators around the world.
C5x: The Enduring Classic That Helped Build the Network
For years, the Mimosa C5x has been a quiet powerhouse—delivering reliable, high-performance connectivity in networks around the world. Whether deployed in Point-to-Point or Point-to-Multipoint topologies, this compact, dual-purpose radio was designed to go the distance.
What makes the C5x so special?
The BEAD game has officially shifted, again.
With the NTIA’s updated guidelines shifting toward tech neutrality and cost-efficiency, satellite providers like Starlink and Project Kuiper are seeing early momentum in the bidding process. States such as Texas, Tennessee, and Vermont have already reported that satellite bids significantly outpaced fiber, both in number and in cost-effectiveness. Meanwhile, over 4 million unserved or underserved locations remain, but that number is shrinking quickly as final bids are submitted ahead of the September 4, 2025 deadline.
Release Date: July 11, 2025
