Fibocom has introduced a 5G module powered by the MediaTek T930.

Combining cellular connectivity, integrated AI capabilities and insight into smart home and enterprise networking, the FG390 targets AI-driven home ecosystems and intelligent control hubs. The module helps bridge data silos and optimise operational efficiency amid ongoing digital transformation.

As AI technology rapidly advances and smart devices proliferate, households and small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are seeking intelligent, secure and efficient digital housekeepers. These AI-powered ecosystems must enable seamless device coordination, centralised data management and real-time decision-making across scenarios such as smart security, remote work and digital infrastructure management.

The FG390 addresses this growing demand, and is powered by MediaTek’s T930 platform, built on a 4nm process and integrating the MediaTek M90 5G modem with a quad-core Arm Cortex-A55 CPU.

It supports six-carrier downlink aggregation (6CC CA) and five-layer 3Tx uplink over sub-6GHz 5G NR, reaching peak speeds of 10Gbit/s downlink and 2.8Gbit/s uplink for fast, low-latency connectivity. Suitable for bandwidth-intensive applications such as multi-stream 8K video or immersive AR and VR experiences, the FG390 also features 8Rx reception with 200MHz bandwidth to enhance spectral efficiency and ensure stable coverage, even at cell edges.

As 5G and AI technologies converge, the CPE (customer premises equipment) is emerging as the central hub of the smart home. Powered by the FG390, this hub gains sensing capabilities, broad compatibility with smart devices – including support for the Matter protocol – and deeply integrated AI algorithms. Together, these features enable real-time adaptation to environmental changes and user behaviour, delivering a more personalised, seamless and comfortable smart living experience.

What differentiates the FG390 is its deep AI integration alongside connectivity. Equipped with a dedicated NPU, it functions as an intelligent in-home AI agent, delivering context-aware services to end users. Designed to support edge-cloud collaborative AI models, such as those from OpenAI and DeepSeek, the FG390 empowers AI-enabled FWA (fixed wireless access) for consumer and enterprise markets.

Its intuitive AI SDK enables flexible service expansion for FWA users, while mobile operators can leverage it to unlock AI-driven value-added services and monetisation channels. Additionally, the module supports NAS integration for centralised data management and optimised AI resource allocation, enhancing productivity and setting the stage for smart applications.

“We have a long history of working together with Fibocom to reach significant FWA milestones, and our collaboration on the next-generation T930 5G FWA platform will help to drive growth of the FWA ecosystem,” said Evan Su, general manager at MediaTek (www.mediatek.com). “With this partnership in mind, we are pushing forward by creating a higher focus on new products that are rich in features and innovative design, while delivering cutting-edge options and exceptional service to customers around the world.”

Simon Tao, vice president at Fibocom (www.fibocom.com), added: “Designed to meet the evolving needs of the FWA market over the next three to five years, we’re pleased to collaborate with MediaTek to launch the FG390 5G FWA module. Powered by the full capabilities of the MediaTek T930 platform and 5G Release 18, the FG390 addresses the connectivity needs of large-scale smart home and SMB deployments with high gain, low latency and multi-OS compatibility. Fibocom remains dedicated to advancing 5G eMBB modules with superior cellular and AI performance. Leveraging powerful NPUs, we’ll work closely with our partners to further enable AI-driven applications across smart homes, offices and cities, fully embracing the AI era. Together with MediaTek, we’ll continue to innovate across products, technologies, and applications to shape a smarter future.”
