Peraso and WeLink Partner to Bring Fiber-Class Wireless Broadband to Dense Urban Communities

Collaboration brings 60GHz technology to dense urban environments, delivering multi-gigabit broadband to underserved neighborhoods

SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / September 10, 2025 / Peraso Inc. (NASDAQ: PRSO) ("Peraso" or the "Company"), a pioneer in mmWave wireless technology solutions, today announced that WeLink Communications, Inc. ("WeLink") has selected Peraso's mmWave technology to accelerate WeLink's deployment of high-speed broadband across dense urban areas in the U.S. WeLink will use Peraso's advanced 60 GHz technology to power its leading edge, mesh-based fixed-wireless access ("FWA") architecture and deliver up to multi-gigabit connectivity to businesses and consumers.

"The deployments by WeLink highlight the growing demand for 60 GHz solutions in dense urban environments," said Ron Glibbery, CEO of Peraso. "By enabling 2 Gbps links that rival fiber performance, our technology is enabling the delivery of affordable, reliable broadband where it's needed most. Together with WeLink, we're not just expanding access to high-speed internet; we're helping to bridge the digital divide in communities that have historically been underserved."

WeLink is currently providing FWA broadband service into three major U.S metropolitan markets with plans for continued expansion into additional markets. Its innovative mesh architecture provides robust reliability and scalability in challenging environments where fiber may not be feasible or cost-effective. WeLink's deployments underscore the transformative potential and versatility of mmWave as an affordable solution, while also highlighting the proven performance of Peraso's technology.

"At WeLink, our mission is to bring fiber-class broadband to communities that have traditionally been left behind," said Dennis O'Connell, CEO of WeLink. "By leveraging Peraso's 60 GHz technology within our unique mesh architecture, we can deliver reliable multi-gigabit speeds to dense urban neighborhoods at a fraction of the cost and implementation time of fiber. WeLink is committed to expanding digital equity and reimagining what broadband infrastructure can look like in the future, and Peraso is a key partner to these efforts given its leadership in mmWave technology."

Compared to traditional fiber deployments that often require costly trenching and long construction timelines, Peraso's 60 GHz technology offers significant benefits, including lower cost, faster deployment times and reduced maintenance requirements. Together, Peraso and WeLink are setting a new benchmark for how broadband infrastructure can be deployed quickly and efficiently to serve diverse communities around the world.
