1.Product Overview
Introduction1.1
Baicells pBS2120 is a high performance outdoor 3650MHz~3700MHz micro base
station based on TD-LTE technology, which is developed by Baicells. The pBS2120
supports wired backhaul connections to backbone networks, and provides LTE access to
user terminals, implemented voice and data service transmissions.
The pBS2120 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 pBS2120 can be widely used by telecom operators, broadband operators,
enterprises, and so on.

Installation Environment3.3
3.3.1 Locational Requirements
Environments with high-temperatures, harmful gases, unstable voltages, volatile
vibrations, loud noises, flames, explosives, and electromagnetic interference (large radar
stations, transmitting stations, transformer substations) are not suitable for the operation
of pBS2120, and thus should be avoided.
Places prone to have impounded water, soaking, leakage, or condensation, should also
be avoided.
Factors like climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, electric power, and transportation
should be taken into consideration in the construction process so that a proper location
can be chosen to meet the communication engineering environmental requirements, as
well as the technical requirements of network planning and communication equipment.
3.3.2 Environmental Requirements
Table 3-2 gives the base station’s environmental requirements with regards to
temperature, humidity, and voltage.
Table 3-2 Environmental Requirements of the Base Station

Range
Humidity
-40°C ～55°C
Relative humidity (no condensation)
5% ~ 95%
Personnel Requirements3.4
The installation personnel must master the basic safe operation knowledge, through the
training, and having the corresponding qualifications.
Grounding Protection3.5
CAUTION:
It is unlikely to happen but since the LTE eNodeB is very sophisticated equipment
so we would recommend you to test it on the ground to make sure everything is
functioning before install on the tower.
Grounding Notes:
