INTRODUCTION
The Sparkercomm Popov NLi429, a 4G+5G dual mode indoor pico Base Station (BS), combines a 4G eNB and a 5G gNB into a single unit, using 2x250mW output power on 5G and 2x125mW output power on 4G. The product has a simple and compact design that provides excellent performance for pico cell. It is explicitly designed for offices, Internet cafes, small shops, and other indoor scenarios to provide reliable wireless coverage. The Popov NLi429 supports both Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and New Radio (NR) technology, and operates in either Time Division Duplexing (TDD) or Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) mode.
With high capacity and easy deployment, the Sparkercomm Popov NLi429 BS can help mobile operators to provide better indoor coverage and higher capacity with lower network deployment cost and Operating Expense (OPEX).
This product has a standard one-year warranty. An extended warranty is available.
