Multi-Band Fourteen Port Antenna

FPA45R-BU8B

Eight foot (2.3 m) internally multiplexed MultiBand, fourteen port antenna, with a 45° azimuth beamwidth covering 698-896 MHz and 1695-2400 MHz frequencies
Eight wide mid band ports covering 1695-2400 MHz, two wide low band ports covering 698-896 MHz and four frequency specific low band ports covering 717-728 MHz and 758-798 MHz (over distributed diplexing) in a single antenna enclosure
Innovative Low and Mid Band Array configuration allows for independent 2T2R (2x2 MIMO) on B29 Low Band Array and 4T4R (4x4 MIMO) on B14/B12 Low Band Arrays and Dual 4T4R (4x4 MIMO) Mid Band Array, using full length arrays, all in a 23.8” (606 mm) width enclosure
Industry leading antenna topology and RET shielding techniques drastically mitigate PIM propagation from B12/B14/B29 operations, allowing for superior Network performance
Full Spectrum Compliance for 698-896 MHz / 1695-2400 MHz operations
LTE Optimized FBR and SPR performance, providing for an efficient use of valuable radio capacity
LTE Optimized Boresight and Sector XPD and USL performance, essential for LTE Performance
Exceeds minimum PIM performance requirements
Equipped with four RET-T17iG3-M, internal integrated AISG 2.0 compliant (upgradable to AISG 3.0 when available) Remote Electrical Tilt (RET) Actuators
Equipped with new 4.3-10 connector

Overview

The CCI internally multiplexed MultiBand array is a fourteen port antenna, with eight wide mid band ports covering 1695-2400 MHz, two wide low band ports covering 698-896 MHz and four frequency specific low band ports covering 717-728 MHz and 758-798 MHz (over distributed diplexing).

The antenna provides the capability to deploy dual 4T4R (4x4 MIMO) in the Mid Band, with a separate RET control. The antenna also provides the capability to provide independent RET control for B29 and B14/B12 operations.

CCI antennas are designed and produced to ISO 9001:2008 certification standards for reliability and quality in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities.

Applications

Dual 4×4 MIMO for the Mid band ports and 2x2 MIMO on B29 ports and 4x4 MIMO on B14/B12 ports
Ready for Network Standardization on 4.3-10 connectors
With CCI’s multiband antennas, wireless providers can connect multiple platforms to a single antenna, reducing tower load, lease expense, deployment time and installation costs
