The new design accommodates various radio types and antennae housed on top of Raycap small cell steel or existing wooden poles in a 4G/5G cellular network. The new RaycapSTAX™ product line provides flexible options that facilitate ever-increasing 5G and next-generation network buildouts.

Market research by MarketsandMarkets™ indicates the 5G infrastructure market is expected to reach a value of USD$ 47.78 billion by 2027 with a compound annual growth rate of 67.1%.

"This product launch answers the demand we are seeing from our wireless network customers," said Kelly Richards, Sr. VP of Sales at Raycap.
