A low-cost, solar-powered gNodeB that brings 5G to the communities the industry left behind.
Traditional macro gNodeBs cost a quarter million dollars, draw kilowatts from the grid, and serve a few square kilometres. The economics only work where thousands of subscribers cluster together. For the 2.7 billion people outside that radius, the digital economy remains a rumour.
Average cost per conventional macro gNodeB site
Typical power draw, requiring grid and backup generators
Population density threshold where MNO ROI turns negative
Software-defined radio on commodity silicon. No proprietary ASIC dependency. Purpose-built for the economics of sparse deployment where the conventional vendor model cannot follow.
Runs entirely off-grid on a single solar panel and battery. Integrated MPPT charge controller. Deploy it on a hilltop, a rooftop, or a pole in the middle of nowhere. No generator. No grid. No compromise.
Optimised sub-6 GHz antenna design pushes NR coverage to 25 km and beyond. One Nhare unit replaces what would take an entire cluster of small cells, serving a full rural district from a single point.
Open fronthaul and midhaul interfaces. Vendor-neutral integration with any O-RAN compatible CU/DU and existing MNO core networks. No lock-in.
Full 5G NR SA operation with RedCap device support for IoT. Optimised for low-bandwidth, high-coverage rural use cases.
Integrated MPPT charge controller and LFP battery management. Ships as a single deployable unit. Sustained operation through 3+ days of overcast conditions.
Satellite backhaul option. Over-the-air firmware and configuration. Deploy hundreds of sites without sending a single engineer back into the field.
We're building toward pilot deployments. Nhare is still early — the company isn't registered yet, the hardware is in development. But the problem is real and the physics work. Leave your email and we'll reach out when we're ready for field testing.
