Ubiik Announces FCC Certification of Dual-SIM, Wi-Fi-capable Pyxis LTE Router for Band 54
Phoenix, AZ – December 17, 2025 – Ubiik, a leader in private LTE (pLTE) solutions for utilities and industrial IoT, today announced the FCC certification of the Pyxis Duo RB701, a Wi-Fi-capable LTE router certified for 3GPP Band 54 operation in North America.
The Pyxis Duo RB701 is designed to support high-performance private LTE deployments for utility and critical infrastructure applications. It incorporates a Cat-4 LTE modem for Band 54 (1670–1675 MHz), delivering the throughput and low latency required for applications such as video surveillance, low-latency SCADA, and advanced grid communications.
The router features two physical SIM slots, enabling automatic failover between private and public networks to enhance resilience for mission-critical operations. Integrated Wi-Fi allows utilities to create local wireless connectivity for devices such as sensors, cameras, laptops, or handheld tools, simplifying field deployments and maintenance.
“This variant of the Pyxis Duo incorporates GCT’s Cat-4 module, which brings increased data throughput to support applications with higher bandwidth demands such as video surveillance or low-latency SCADA,” said Mark Fecci, Vice President of Sales, U.S., at Ubiik. “By enabling advanced edge computing as well as failover redundancy, the addition of this router to our product range is helping utilities further transform their grid communications.”
Sachin Chhibber, Chief Technology Officer at Ligado Networks, considers the Pyxis Duo router to be an important building block in expanding the Band 54 ecosystem and enabling high-performance connectivity for utilities to modernize grid operations.
“Band 54 operates in TDD mode, giving Utility customers the flexibility to allocate bandwidth between uplink and downlink based on application needs. This approach not only optimizes performance for asymmetric traffic patterns but also delivers greater spectral efficiency.”
The Pyxis Duo RB701 pairs with Ubiik’s goRAN™ base station for Band 54 and is fully integrated with goNMS™, Ubiik’s Network Management System, providing centralized visibility and management of devices and networks through a single interface deployable in the cloud or on-premises.
