UFOX is an exchange-traded fund designed to capture opportunities in US-listed companies at the forefront of developing and deploying cutting-edge connective technologies, such as 5G and 6G networks. Its portfolio comprises 50 distinct securities, selected based on their revenue generation; each must derive a minimum of 50% of its income from activities or offerings including core cellular network equipment, real estate investment trusts (REITs) and mobile network operators (MNOs), solutions for service assurance and network optimization, or enhanced mobile broadband infrastructure. The fund employs a modified market capitalization-weighting strategy, ensuring no single holding surpasses a 5% allocation, with an additional cap of 1.5% for each of the three largest REITs and MNOs.

Furthermore, on September 23, its underlying index was renamed from the BlueStar 5G Communications Index to better reflect its updated and broader thematic focus.
