Wireless Power Through Glass:
Enabling Self-Installable Outdoor CPE
Solace partners with operators and CPE manufacturers to solve Fixed Wireless Access & Fibre to the Home deployment challenges with innovative power and data through-glass technology.
Doubling network capacity with Solace’s Wireless Power Through Glass technology
Our wireless power through glass technology enables outdoor CPE to be installed outside the home, capturing data where the signal is strongest and avoiding signal loss from windows, walls, furniture, and other household items. When compared to an indoor CPE, this can achieve up to 159% increased downlink throughput and up to 432% uplink throughput.
Fully Self-Installable
- Enables outdoor CPE that can be fully installed by the end user, no technicians required
- No drilling holes in walls which significantly reduces friction in customer adoption
No Truck Rolls Needed
- Eliminate missed-appointment delays and repeat truck rolls that push back service activation
- Save $200+ per unit by eliminating truck rolls
Faster Time to Market
- Accelerate deployment and time to revenue with customer-ready CPE that works right out of the box
- Expedite mass-market rollouts by removing professional installation as a bottleneck
Enables Outdoor-like Performance
- Can attain higher data rates than indoor CPE due to decreased attenuation/signal degradation
- Up to 159% downlink and 432% uplink capacity gain, allowing more customers to be served per cell site
Unlocks Previously Unreachable Customers
- Reduce attenuation by up to 30+ dB, improving signal strength to serviceable levels and extending coverage
- Customers outside the usual service area can still be served with a self-installable outdoor CPE solution

Frequently Asked Questions
Will you work with our preferred CPE vendors?
Yes, we are happy to work with your preferred CPE vendors.
Why not just use a cable?
Wire-through-window units are more complicated to install, require operable windows, and are prone to wear and damage from pinching or crushing in the window seam. Wireless power eliminates these issues, installs in under 5 minutes on ~98% of windows worldwide, and removes the need for any physical cable passthrough.
Can Solace transmit both power and data through a window?
Yes. We work with data integrators and CPE vendors to provide both WiFi and LiFi-based high bandwidth data transfer, up to 3.5 Gbps.
Is wireless power safe for humans and animals?
Yes, our wireless power system has been rigorously SAR tested and proven safe for humans and animals.
How far can your wireless power technology transfer energy?
Standard systems transfer power across a 40 mm gap, and this can be increased by scaling coil size.
Are you currently working with any CPE vendors?
Yes, we are currently engaged in a partnership with Netcomm, an Australian CPE vendor.
