Nova230i Pro Outdoor Base Station

The Nova230i Pro is a low power outdoor 2x500mW microcell eNodeB (eNB) specifically for tightly clustered pockets of customers, coverage holes, edges of your network, or simply opportunistic micro targeting, like RV parks, marinas, and high-density dwellings such as townhomes and apartments. As with all Baicells products, the Nova230i Pro supports Long-Term Evolution (LTE) technology, and it operates in Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) mode.

When paired with self-install indoor user equipment (UE), such customer sets can be captured quickly and with a near immediate ROI. For private network operators, this microcell is perfect for clusters of cameras, such as those used at traffic intersections, and other devices.

The product comes with a standard one-year warranty; extended warranty is available.
