Cel-Fi[tm] QUATRA – Improve voice and data coverage for 3G/4G/LTE

Cel-Fi QUATRA is a scalable in-building cellular system that is cost-efficient and easy-to-deploy solution for delivering high quality signal in venues up to 200,000 sq. ft. It is a hybrid solution that combines the best of active DAS and Smart Booster technologies.

Cel-Fi QUATRA is designed to distribute Small Cell or Off-Air cellular service in mid-sized enterprise environments, quickly, easily, and cost effectively.

System Features

* Enterprise-class, carrier-grade, small footprint active DAS

* MIMO RF inputs for (a) small cell donor or (b) external off-air donor antenna

* Network Unit (NU) (Head End) attaches to Coverage Unit (CU) (Remote Radio Head) via Cat 5e cable

* A single NU and up to four (4) CUs may be attached (hub and spoke architecture) in a QUATRA system

* Multiple QUATRA systems may be deployed to increase coverage footprint

* Up to 100 meter range from NU to CU

* QUATRA Range Extender (QRE) (optional) may be used to increase NU-to-CU distance to 200 meters

* Remote Management through Nextivity’s WAVE cloud platform

* Easiest installation in its class

* Glanceable LED User Interface (UI)

* Supporting smart phone application (QMT)

* Mounting hardware included

Wireless Features

* 3G & 4G / LTE support (WCDMA / HSPA+ / LTE)

* Supports up to four (4) bands simultaneously from a single operator

* Supports FDD

* MIMO (in two bands)

* Up to 100dB system gain per band (in Off-Air mode)

* Peaceful coexistence with adjacent Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz & 5 GHz), femtocells, and cellular devices

* Advanced digital echo-cancellation (>30dB) and channel select filtering algorithms

* Active management of the cellular link between the Base Station and user devices

* Automatic Gain Control (AGC) based on fast real-time echocancellation

* Linear RF front end

* Adaptive signal equalization

* Uses Nextivity’s 3rd-generation “ARES” chipset

Mobile Network and Network Protection Features

* Global band combinations available for Americas, Europe, Asia, Oceania, and Africa

* Systems are pre-configured for a single carrier (network operator)

* Better integration, handover, and handoff with the macro network

* Supports multiple channels with bandwidths of 3.84/5/10/15/20 MHz per channel

* Works with any user equipment (UE) for the configured network (no whitelist/blacklist)

* Up to 75 MHz system relay bandwidth

* Support for 3GPP Release 10 features

* Provider-specific system: Cel-Fi distributes and boosts service only for the Operator PLMNIDs for which the device is authorized and configured

* Secure and ciphered provisioning

* System intelligence accurately establishes proper safe uplink power in real time
