History
The company was founded in 2012 by John D. Mezzalingua as John Mezzalingua Associates LLC, initially employing about 150 people.[10] He previously ran the Production Products Company (PPC), which was sold to Belden Incorporated for $515.7 million.[11]
JMA Wireless operates on a software-based XRAN architecture, which integrates processes into a single common server and removes the need for radios and jumpers in Distributed antenna system (DAS) deployments.[16]
In 2018, JMA Wireless acquired 5G radio provider PHAZR for an undisclosed amount. The deal allowed JMA Wireless to offer 5G RAN technologies that supports spectrum from 600MHz all the way up to 47GHz.[17][18]
