Ubiik launches freeRAN.net to promote the use of private LTE and Cellular IoT in license-free bands

PHOENIX, May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Ubiik, a leading provider of private LTE networks announced today the launch of a new website, www.freeRAN.net, focused on the use of private LTE/5G LPWA to support the growing IoT market.

Centered around freeRAN™, Ubiik’s pLTE base station designed for the 915 MHz unlicensed band (902-928MHz or a subset, depending on the region), the new website outlines the ideal use cases to leverage this license-free spectrum. Appealing to Utilities, Mining, Oil & Gas, Transport and Construction industries, freeRAN™ makes use of readily available spectrum to allow users to boost visibility over their operations by connecting thousands of devices simultaneously. Of particular interest to end users is the ability to take back control of their data and coverage with a private network.

Low-cost alternative to macro pLTE deployments

The key benefit of utilizing the ISM band is the removal of one of the major barriers to entry of deploying a private LTE network – cost.  With companies spending millions of dollars on spectrum to build a private network, the introduction of an LTE base station to leverage this license-free spectrum has been game-changing.  In addition, freeRAN’s compact, lightweight (less than 7kg), ruggedized (IP67) and low-power (PoE support) profile, together with its built-in cellular backhaul, reduce both the equipment footprint and the overall capital expense. An embedded EPC (core network) further lowers costs compared to high-end, macro-LTE solutions where the cost of the core alone – which is centralized – can contribute significantly to the overall network expense.

Increased throughput and security with cellular protocols

Compared to technologies which have traditionally been used in the unlicensed bands (e.g. LoRaWAN®, Wi-SUN®, Wi-Fi HaLow™), the other benefits of deploying a private network with freeRAN™ and its 3GPP technologies are betterthroughput (with either Cat-1 or Cat-M1), security (with SIM authentication and encryption), and the ability to roam to public networks for resiliency. The higher throughput offered by freeRAN™ provides an ideal solution for combining a primary low-power application (i.e. meters, asset trackers, sensors – leveraging eDRX from LTE-M) with additional use cases such as security cameras or a private, secure voice/data network for your team, all within the same network and with a single core.

Quick to deploy and with a Network Management System included

Designed to be as quick to deploy as WiFi routers, end users of freeRAN™ will be able to start a network deployment within a matter of hours, particularly as the lightweight base station can be mounted on existing infrastructure.

End users of freeRAN™ also benefit from the inclusion of Ubiik’s goNMS Network Management Solution for easy configuration and monitoring of their freeRAN™ network. goNMS can either be hosted on-premise or in the cloud to suit the user’s requirements.

Hong Kong at Maritime Crossroads: New Studies Reveal Unprecedented Opportunity for Kickstarting the Blue Economy


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 May 2025 – In a rare convergence of economic and environmental expertise, three landmark studies released today by ADM Capital Foundation, HKUST and WWF-Hong Kong, presenting a transformative vision—Hong Kong can reinvent itself as Asia’s premier blue economy hub.

ADM 27May

The reports—Port 1.0 to Port 2.0 (HKUST), Blue Finance for a Blue Economy (ADMCF), and Valuing the Invaluable Blue (WWF-Hong Kong)—all agree that the city has a unique opportunity in this moment, wherein:

  • Global shipping reforms are creating openings for blue finance leadership
  • Port redevelopments can integrate ecological and economic value
  • Marine ecosystems, long undervalued, are essential to regional prosperity and resilience

Global shipping reforms – IMOs net zero emission and carbon pricing mandate will force fleet upgrades, fuel transitions and new financial risks. In parallel, the UN has announced an ambitious biodiversity framework to be achieved by 2030. Hong Kong, itself, is striving to re-assert itself as a maritime powerhouse. This alignment, the authors propose, creates an unprecedented opportunity to transform the city into Asia’s sustainable blue economy leader. At the heart of this transformation lies ‘Port 2.0’ – a visionary reimagining of Hong Kong’s waters as a multifunctional interface that connects sea, land, city, technology and people, and serve as platforms for innovation, environmental stewardship and civic life.

What makes this moment truly extraordinary is how these elements intersect with Hong Kong’s unique advantages. Our world-class financial ecosystem can mobilise the billions needed for maritime decarbonisation. Our strategic location positions us as the natural hub for green shipping business in Asia. And our existing port infrastructure provides the ideal testing ground for innovative solutions.” said Christine Loh, Chief Development Strategist, Institute for the Environment at HKUST and author of the paper “From Port 1.0 to Port 2.0: Hong Kong’s Next Leap to Evolving a Blue Economy Vision”.

Hong Kong’s status as the world’s third-largest capital hub gives it unmatched potential to pioneer blue finance. As ADMCF’s Blue Finance report highlights, instruments such as blue bonds can mobilise capital to facilitate port decarbonisation, sustainable aquaculture and marine eco-tourism—transforming the city into Asia’s premier blue economy hub, aligning marine protection with economic prosperity. In 2023 there was a surge in blue bonds followed by continued growth in 2024, and Asia was the largest issuing region—led by China.

“If Hong Kong were to issue blue bonds, this would not only signal the city’s commitment to improving its status as a leading international maritime hub but also accelerate the growth of blue finance, ensuring a future where economic prosperity and marine resilience go hand in hand,” said Kate Martin, the report’s lead author and sustainable finance consultant with ADMCF.

This untapped potential aligns with the groundbreaking research in Valuing the Invaluable Blue. The WWF-commissioned study by the Chinese Academy of Sciences has, for the first time, quantified the staggering monetary value of the Greater Bay Area’s coastal ecosystems—revealing a Gross Ecosystem Product (GEP) worth RMB 4.9 trillion, equivalent to over 35% of the GBA’s GDP, with 73% contributed by marine ecosystems.

This valuation demonstrates our marine ecosystems’ critical, yet often overlooked, economic contributions,” said Lydia Pang, Head of Oceans Conservation at WWF-Hong Kong. “From climate regulation to disaster mitigation, these natural systems provide services worth over one-third of our regional GDP – services that should be factored into development decisions and anchor blue economy planning,” she said. “What’s more, our study shows that Hong Kong is uniquely positioned to adopt this ecosystem accounting framework. With strong data foundations, policy alignment, and technical readiness, we can localise and institutionalise marine GEP accounting to guide planning, investment, and conservation.

The authors’ combined focus on a blue economy vision integrates port development with marine conservation, biodiversity, climate resilience, recreation and the responsible use of ocean resources. It builds on China’s decades of marine policy leadership, where comprehensive frameworks – from ocean GEP systems to blue finance instruments – have laid the foundation for sustainable maritime development.

“The window to developing a sustainable blue economy and to establish ourselves as the global leader in sustainable maritime commerce is open now, but won’t remain so indefinitely.” Said Sophie le Clue, CEO at ADMCF. “The question isn’t whether we can seize this opportunity, but whether we will.”
