Dual-Mode Cellular Access Point (CAP) Hardware Family Data Sheet

Overview

The Cellular Access Point (CAP) hardware family is a software-defined, multi-

mode, multi-band Enterprise femto. The Parallel Wireless approach gives
CAP FAMILY mobile operators the flexibility to choose any Original Device Manufacturer
(ODM) CAP hardware that utilizes small cell SoC, resulting in much lower
Multi-mode (3G, 4G) hardware CAPEX. As these hardware reference designs combine 3G and
multi-band enterprise 4G/LTE functions into a single footprint using common network connectivity
femto and power, this greatly simplifies the installation and maintenance process.

Key Features The dual-mode CAP (also available in single mode) supports both 3G/UMTS
• 3GPP compliant and 4G/LTE. This design approach delivers deployment flexibility and the
• SON-based lowest cost per unit for a wide variety of enterprise deployments to enable the
interference following benefits:
mitigation
• Self-configuring, self- • Larger indoor coverage area per each base station,
optimizing, and self- • True wireless broadband level of service for subscribers with more data
managing via HetNet throughput and high-quality voice calls,
Gateway • Support for neutral host deployments at much lower cost than
Key Benefits traditional DAS system with cloud based real-time orchestration with
HetNet Gateway (HNG).
• Cost-effective,
resilient coverage
The dual-mode CAP is auto-configured and managed by the Parallel Wireless
indoors
HetNet Gateway (HNG). The CAP can be deployed and maintained without
• Lower overall TCO
• Simple and flexible any specialized staff. The HNG makes the CAP nodes self-configurable and
deployment self-optimizing and enables seamless handoffs/mobility between the nodes
using licensed or unlicensed spectrum for the optimal subscriber QoS.

Key Features and Capabilities

• Concurrent 3G (UMTS) and 4G LTE support

• 3GPP compliant across all components
• 3GPP compliant “Plug-n- Play” Enterprise-grade security
• SON-based interference mitigation on HetNet Gateway
• Enterprise-grade hardware Figure 1. Dual-mode CAP
• Low power consumption
• Software-enabled remote diagnostic to detect, monitor, and alarm

 SON on HetNet Gateway auto-configures the CAPs, actively manages and monitors them to ensure
the overall system performance, and mitigates interference (ICIC, extendable to eICIC in the future)
with neighboring small cells/macros. CAPs can be remotely controlled and even switched off in
unusual cases where problems arise.

CAP Multi-mode Enterprise Femto Hardware Benefits Include:

• Covers the majority of cellular 3G and 4G bands ensuring that there is a solution available for
any deployment situation from small to large enterprises
• Overall TCO reduction
• Future-proof for additional bands or bands reconfigurations and neutral-host enabler
• Seamless handoffs and mobility management for voice and data for better subscriber experience
• Local breakout

Deployment Options

CAP, an indoor multi-mode Enterprise product series femto cell, can be attached to any indoor
structure to operate in dual-mode.

Recommended applications:
• To provide secure, reliable, cost-effective in-building coverage
• To eliminate a need for standalone femtos
• To provide neutral host solutions
• For general-purpose rugged indoor wireless LAN
