Honlly Telecom Launches NTN-Ready 5G CPE as Satellite-Direct Services Go Commercial in 2026

XIAMEN, China - June 24, 2026 - PRLog -- The telecom industry is witnessing a paradigm shift as 5G NTN (Non-Terrestrial Network) services move from standards documents to commercial reality in 2026. Xiamen Honlly Telecom Technology Co., Ltd., an ISO 9001-certified OEM/ODM manufacturer of 4G/5G CPE and fixed wireless access (FWA) devices, today announced its readiness to supply NTN-compatible CPE solutions as commercial satellite-direct-to-device services accelerate globally.

Key commercial developments driving NTN CPE demand include T-Mobile's expanding Starlink partnership now covering 500,000+ square miles of previously unserved US territory, AST SpaceMobile's five commercial BlueBird satellites now in orbit, and Lynk Global's roaming agreements with 40+ mobile network operators across 40+ countries.

"Our NTN-ready CPE platform gives operators a single-device solution for both terrestrial and satellite coverage areas," said Gerard Zhong, Founder and CEO of Honlly Telecom. "As LEO constellations achieve commercial scale, we're ensuring our operator customers have the CPE hardware to capture these new markets immediately."

Honlly Telecom's NTN-capable CPE platforms support 3GPP Release 17 NTN specifications including n255 (L-band) and n256 (S-band) frequency bands alongside standard terrestrial 5G bands, with integrated Doppler compensation and extended timing advance for satellite link budgets. The platform leverages MediaTek and Qualcomm NTN-compatible chipsets, ensuring operators can deploy using the same supply chains and management infrastructure they already rely on for terrestrial 5G CPE.

Founded in 2009, Xiamen Honlly Telecom serves 90+ operators across 75+ countries and holds China's National High-Tech Enterprise certification (2024). The company provides end-to-end OEM/ODM customization including firmware development, industrial design, packaging, and global logistics for telecom operators, MVNOs, ISPs, and enterprise buyers.
