Airspan Networks Holdings LLC is a U.S.-based global provider of wireless network solutions, specializing in carrier-grade 5G and advanced wireless connectivity. Headquartered in Plano, Texas, the company focuses on delivering innovative technology to drive digital transformation and build reliable, high-capacity networks worldwide.

Airspan's comprehensive portfolio spans three core solution areas: in-building, outdoor, and air-to-ground. Key offerings include Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS), Open Radio Access Network (RAN) solutions, and small cells, catering to both public and private network settings. The company also provides fixed wireless access and backhaul solutions, serving mobile network operators, neutral-host providers, enterprises, and public-sector organizations.

Under the leadership of CEO Glenn Laxdal, Airspan has recently completed a strategic transition, becoming a private company majority-owned by Fortress Investment Group in October 2024. The company entered 2026 with strong growth, projecting 25% to 30% revenue growth for the year. Recent notable developments include the acquisition of Corning's wireless business in April 2025, enhancing its in-building connectivity offerings, and securing a $42.7 million NTIA Grant to advance 5G Open RAN technology. Airspan also secured a strategic Open RAN radio deal with Rakuten Mobile for 2026 deployment and enabled the commercial launch of the world's first 5G air-to-ground network with Gogo.
