4G Unwired

What 4G Unwired does

4G Unwired is a private RF engineering consulting firm founded in 2005 and operating as a division of Foresite Group. The company designs mobile and fixed wireless networks, providing RF engineering services for 5G, CBRS, LTE, In-Building, and Public Safety deployments. Its core technology stack centers on Atoll propagation software with Automatic Cell Planner, IEEE-standard formulas, and digitized terrain and clutter data sourced from commercial providers, enabling propagation modeling, interference analysis, automatic cell planning, and microwave backhaul engineering. The firm also delivers Wireless A/E services covering site layouts, structural assessments, zoning, fiber network engineering, tower build-to-suit, and FCC Broadband Data Collection and Challenge Process engineering.

The firm serves five enterprise customer segments: cellular carriers, wireless ISPs (WISPs), tower companies, system integrators, and infrastructure vendors. It delivers these services through direct enterprise sales engagement and operates in conjunction with parent company Foresite Group, which extends the offering to include site engineering, fiber installation, and tower services delivered nationally and internationally. The firm holds Google SAS Certification for CBRS Professional Training and maintains active memberships in WISPA, NATE, GAWA, Texas Wireless Association, and MDDCWA.

Commercially, 4G Unwired is a sub-10-employee professional services firm with no disclosed revenue, no external funding, and a project-based services revenue model. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and contracts are negotiated directly with enterprise clients. The business relies on senior RF engineer expertise (20+ years of experience) and the Foresite Group parent structure for turnkey project delivery rather than recurring subscription or product revenue mechanics.
