1.4 Key Features and Capabilities
 Flexible and economic traffic management; Optimized network utilization:
A unique combination of smart traffic management techniques, allowing load (and thus cost) reduction
based. These optimizations are achieved via automated management considerations and path selection
techniques. e.g.: Dynamic routing (from each vBBU port to each remote port and vice versa); Advanced
clusterization logic (up to 24 clusters; allows downlink forking and then uplink summing, to reduce CPRI
throughput); capacity steering techniques, and more.
 Economic and simplified upgrade scenario; Easy and flexible installation & software upgrade;
Simple & fast deployment
FPGA programmable system, avoiding the need to replace hardware for standard software upgrades;
Supports remote connection for software upgrade and management
 Easy-to-use ethernet management & remote access
Easy and friendly administrator and operator tools (two administration connections: LAN for management
and Local for debug); indication LEDs;
Support for up to 100 Mbps for management over CPRI fast C&M channel transport for each CPRI port
 Reordering (agnostic packet order)
Flexible CPRI routing; allocation of incoming channel in any AxC location on the CPRI stream
 Start-up and Upgrade recovery control mechanisms
Hot swap; CPRI “Plug and Play”. Only 10.1 Gbps (CPRI option 8) SW/HW/clock failure recovery mechanism.
 Free digital platform, providing cost-effective and highly reliable services
Fully digital based unit: less noise, reducing power loss (attenuation/amplification) and reducing cost.
 Support for 4G and 5G
Technology agnostic
 Frequency scalability
Wide coverage for RF channels; additional frequencies without HW replacement. Supported frequencies: 5
MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz, 20 MHz
 Acoustic noise
Validated per GR-63
 Modular input power
Support for AC and for DC power IN
 Scalability of unit connectivity
• BBUs: Up to four high capacity sources per DRU
• Remotes: Up to 32 low power units per DRU
• DRUs: Up to four DRUs connected per BBU
• Synchronization: 10 MHz clock domain
