TD-LTE 8-pipe radio

Cost effective delivery of 4G with high


capacity and scalability by supporting up to
120MHz of aggregated spectrum

To keep up with TD-LTE subscriber penetration, operators need a mobile broadband


network that makes it possible to provide service with the lowest possible CAPEX, site
cost and OPEX and is also scalable to very high capacity.
The Nokia TD-LTE 8-pipe radio supports up to 120MHz of aggregated spectrum, up
to three sectors in a single compact unit, and 160W transmit power per sector with a
zero footprint configuration.

Cost savings, flexible configuration


With a Nokia TD-LTE 8-pipe radio in place, TD LTE operators can launch mobile
broadband services cost effectively across various sites with high flexibility.
For rural or suburban deployment, operator can deploy three-sector 2TRX site using
a single TD-LTE 8-pipe remote radio head. This configuration offers a threefold
savings compared with the three single sector 2 paths remote radio heads. For TD
LTE operators, this translates into savings from lower costs for radios, tower space,
installation, cabling, maintenance and power.
For urban, high capacity deployment operator can deploy it as 4TRX, 3-carriers
solution and for dense urban ultra high capacity deployment operator could use up
to six carriers from a single radio and deliver very high capacity.
As subscriber penetration increases and capacity demand grows, the 8-pipe radio site
is easy to re-configure with software upgrades or hardware additions that support:
Higher average sector throughput
Better cell edge performance
All of above give high capacity solutions from single site and reduce the requirement
of new sites and reduce the site costs in effect resulting in lower cost compared to
radios with low capacity and low flexibility.
