Nova452 Outdoor Base Station

The Baicells Nova452 is an advanced two-carrier outdoor eNodeB (eNB) compliant with 3GPP LTE Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and hardware-ready for NR 5G technology. This 4*40W eNB comes in two forms: FDD and TDD.

This 4x40W eNB operates (FDD & TDD) in Dual Carrier (DC) mode.

In DC mode, each carrier is treated as an independent cell, supporting 512+512(FDD) and 256+256(TDD) users with each cell supporting 5, 10, 15, 20MHz bandwidth. Using a Nova452 in DC mode simplifies and streamlines the deployment of split sectors.

This 4x40W eNB(TDD) also operates in Carrier Aggregation (CA) mode.

In CA mode, Nova452 supports 2CC (2 component carriers) DL/UL CA. 2CC DL/UL CA doubles DL/UL peak throughput comparing to that of a single carrier by aggregating 2 separated spectrum resources into a virtual contiguous spectrum resource.

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