Description

The Celona AP 24 is an indoor 5G NR base station designed to provide high-performance private wireless connectivity in enterprise environments. Purpose-built for applications requiring predictable latency, high throughput, and robust mobility, the AP 24 is suitable for warehouses, factories, healthcare facilities, and indoor industrial use cases. Its compact, ruggedized form factor and IP50 rating make it well-suited for semi-rugged installations where reliability and ease of deployment are essential.

The AP 24 delivers up to 1 Gbps aggregate throughput using 2x2 MIMO and supports subcarrier spacing of 30 kHz. With configurable channel bandwidths up to 100 MHz and support for 256 QAM modulation, it provides high spectral efficiency. One-way latency is under 10 ms, enabling time-sensitive applications. Management and provisioning are handled through Celona’s cloud-based Orchestrator and Edge platform, with built-in PTP timing synchronization. This model supports Band n79 (4.5–4.9 GHz).

Deployment Requirements

To deploy the Celona AP 24, you’ll need:

  • Celona Edge and Orchestrator: Required for core networking, SIM provisioning, and device management.
  • IP backhaul: Public or private IP backhaul to connect to the Celona Edge appliance.
  • Power and mounting: The AP 24 includes a PoE injector, power cable, and mounting kit. You’ll need to provide site power and either ceiling or wall mounting points.
  • Environmental considerations: Designed for indoor deployments. Operating temperature range is -5°C to 45°C, with IP50-rated ingress protection.
  • Configuration access: All setup is performed remotely via Celona’s centralized Orchestrator. Local CLI access is not supported.

Setting up a private network can get involved — from hardware selection and integration, to network design, software configuration, and user device onboarding. Our team of experts can help deliver a complete solution, whether you’re looking for just the parts or a full turnkey deployment. Reach out here to get started.

Key Features
