| Benefits | • Easiest to deploy Active DAS Hybrid • Distribute and boost cellular coverage indoors, eliminates dead zones • 3G and 4G support, Voice and Data, network safe • Coverage footprint provided via Power over Ethernet (PoE); no requirement for additional power source at CU (RU) • System can accept various Donor signal inputs: Small Cell; OTA (off-air) via external antenna |
| Wireless Benefits | • Clear and reliable cellular connections within coverage area • Highest gain (100 dB) provides best coverage footprint • Advanced Echo-Cancelation allows Cel-Fi QUATRA to transmit more power without interference or feedback • Subscriber devices require less transmit power for improved battery life • Linearity eliminates IMD desense issues • Dynamic gain control ensures maximum gain—best coverage—at all times in ever changing RF environments, without user intervention • Nextivity purpose-built, high-performance, six core ASIC processor, provides best performance at lowest cost |
| Mobile Network Benefits | • Flexibly deploy in LTE, VoLTE, LTE-Advanced, and WCDMA networks, with multiple cellular bands, simultaneously • Automatically adjusts channel bandwidths from 3.84 MHz to 20 MHz • Sufficient relay bandwidth (75 MHz) to support SISO and MIMO in multiple bands • Off-load the macro network in Supercell mode, or use to improve macro capacity and building propagation/penetration • UE control is transparent and remains centralized in the network core (no gateways or third-party software) |
| Cel-Fi Mounts | • Indoor/outdoor mounts designed to secure a donor signal antenna for Cel-Fi QUATRA and work with the Cel-Fi WAVE Antenna Positioning Application • A rugged outdoor pole mount, designed for mounting antenna externally to a pole, and supporting the Antenna Positioning Application |
