1.Product Overview
Introduction1.1
Baicells Nova-436 is a high performance outdoor 3.5GHz micro base station based on
LTE TDD technology, which is developed by Baicells. The Nova-436 supports wired
backhaul connections to backbone networks, and provides LTE access to user terminals,
implemented voice and data service transmissions.
The Nova-436 makes use of the current transmission resources to reduce the
operator’s investment, implement the low-cost construction of LTE networks and
enhance indoor coverage, thereby providing high-speed broadband access for
users in assembly occupations.
The Nova-436 can be widely used by telecom operators, broadband operators,
enterprises, and so on.
