R14 outdoor picocell

The nanoBTS R14 picocells
help meet cellular coverage
obligations to remote
locations where ARPU is
low. The R14 is a complete
low power GSM base
station which supports all
GSM and 3G handsets,
with flexible backhaul
for satellite or alternative
low cost routes in remote
deployments.
Optimum Performance
The R14 is available for all GSM bands
with an EIRP output of up to 36dBm which
typically gives a range of up to 1km.
All R14 picocells offer EDGE and GPRS
data to provide mobile internet access to
users.
The R14 comes with a range of directly
coupled high gain antennas to optimize the
coverage of this compact and low power
unit.
Omni Antennas are ideal for providing
coverage to a remote community and can
provide a cell diameter of up to 2km.
Directional Antennas with built in solar
shield are ideal for applications such as
roads or denser communities.
Low power
In remote locations providing power can be
a significant part of the deployment cost.
The R14 does not use boosters, simplifying
the design and keeping power to a
minimum. It only needs 13W and so is ideal
for use with solar powered systems.
Satellite Backhaul
The R14 can be deployed with a range
of different backhaul options including
satellite, WiMAX, point to point microwave
or DSL. It builds on the existing nanoBTS
which has already been deployed over
satellite in many different places including
remote rural locations, ships and aircraft.

Supports multiple users
With up to 14 simultaneous calls each R14
can provide up to 7.3 Erlangs - enough to
support over 300 users with a 20 mErlang
traffic profile.
Proven Solution
The R14 connects to the nanoGSM BSC
which is live in over 60 networks and has
been integrated with all leading MSC and
SGSNs
nanoGSM is the fastest, most cost-effective
way to add capacity and coverage to
the hardest-to-reach parts of your GSM
network.
nanoBTS R14
The nanoGSM system is a proven, end-to-end solution carrying billions of minutes of
traffic every year, all over the world.
