FBH8131 with LTE Backhaul
Personal Small Cell Hub
The FBH8131 Access Point (AP) from NEC provides
a small cell that is able to autonomously adapt to its
RF environment to provide best coverage. It is built
on many years of small cell development, providing
a solution that supports zero touch installation, as
it also incorporates an adaptive and distributed
radio management function obtaining optimal local
coverage with minimal macro network interference.
This helps operators to reduce expenditure on
network optimisation.
Features
The FBH8131 provides significant performance gains
compared to other similar products in the market and to
previous NEC products. It can support the full HSDPA and
HSUPA data rates whilst supporting up to 8 calls.
The FBH8131 product offers fixed line and mobile LTE as
backhaul options. This extends the end user usability to
places where the fixed line Ethernet is not available.
• Designed for the mobile life style use in homes and
offices
• Handles up to 8 simultaneous calls
• Supports HSDPA 14.4 Mbps downlink
• Supports HSUPA 5.7Mbps uplink.
• Transmit power up to 13dbm (20mW)
• Effective cell radius ~50m, depending on actual
deployment environment
• Supports WCDMA Band I
• Product variants support Bands II/V and IV
Small Footprint
The FBH8131 has an elegant
and compact design to
fit unobtrusively in to the
modern mobile life style. It is
also highly energy efficient,
consuming less than 4W of
power, way below the 2009
EU target of 11W.
Best Performance
Despite its diminutive
proportions, the FBH8131 is
at the leading edge of small
cell performance. Each unit
can handle up to 8 calls
and download speeds up
to 14.4 Mbps in fixed WAN
and mobile LTE Backhaul
deployments.
• LTE Band VIII For Backhaul with fixed line Ethernet as
an option
• Remote device management: TR-069
• NEC FemtoSpace with inter-FAP HO for seamless
deployment of several small cells
• Wall mounting is provided as an option
• Works with both GAN (pre-Iuh) and Iuh
• Incorporates leading technologies
• Ubiquisys software engine
• Broadcom BCM61600
NEC’s small cell access point provides a ‘zero touch’
plug and play function that enables end users to install
the Femtocell access point (FAP) in their homes quickly
and easily. After installation, the FAP automatically sets
up connections to the core network over the subscriber’s
broadband connection and it interworks with 3G handsets
without any modification. The end users enjoy improved 3G
capacity and bundled services.
Home & Business
Can be deployed in homes
and in business spaces,
when no Ethernet WAN is
available but, LTE can be
used as Backhaul. Once
activated it provides 3G
coverage.
Field Proven
The software system has
been proven in multiple
commercial deployments
worldwide, and includes
unique real-time interference
mitigation system.
