Peraso's mmWave Technology Achieves Fiber-like Speeds of 2.5Gbs
SAN JOSE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 12, 2025 / Peraso Inc. (NASDAQ:PRSO) ("Peraso" or the "Company"), a pioneer in mmWave wireless technology solutions, today indicated its support for the National Telecommunications and Information Administration's ("NTIA") newly adopted technology-neutral approach for the $42.45 billion Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment ("BEAD") program.
NTIA's newly released BEAD Restructuring Policy Notice updates the BEAD Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) by eliminating prior regulatory burdens and adopting a technology-neutral, cost-focused framework that emphasizes performance and scalability, while giving states greater flexibility to tailor broadband strategies to local needs. As a global leader in the fixed wireless access ("FWA") market, Peraso's 60 GHz mmWave solutions enable wireless Internet service providers ("WISPs") to offer subscribers fiber-like speeds of 2.5 gigabits per second (Gbps). mmWave FWA is a compelling cost-effective alternative to fiber, providing gigabit throughput, rapid deployment and robust network security.
"The NTIA's new technology-neutral approach recognizes the vital role of innovative wireless technologies, such as FWA, in expanding broadband availability and enabling more flexible, cost-effective deployment strategies," said Ron Glibbery, CEO of Peraso. "With the revised rules on BEAD eligibility, we believe WISPs and state broadband offices are now empowered to adopt a more pragmatic, performance-focused framework to propose mmWave FWA solutions to deliver fast, secure connectivity in areas where fiber deployment is challenging or cost-prohibitive."
For more than a decade, Peraso has been at the forefront of high-performance mmWave innovation. As one of the few providers offering solutions across the full mmWave spectrum (24GHz - 71GHz), Peraso delivers flexible, scalable technology that appeals to WISPs of all sizes. The Company's fully integrated, unlicensed 60 GHz solutions enable a wide range of deployments in the FWA market, as demand for cost-effective broadband connectivity accelerates.
