LIST OF TABLES
1.1 Overview
This document provides a description of the Alcatel-Lucent 9362 Enterprise Cell Series 2 V2.2
2100MHz W-CDMA as part of the 9360 Small Cell solution (Enterprise Cell in the rest of the
document). The Product Description provides the characteristics, key benefits and operational
capabilities of the product. The Enterprise Cell will be introduced first with releases BCR 2.4.1
and BCR 3.0.
Alcatel-Lucent reserves the right to change the technical specifications without notice until
General Availability of the product.
The Product Description mentions the Enterprise Cell functions but cannot be considered as a
detailed feature list or a Plan of Record (PoR). This information is provided in dedicated
documents on a per software release basis (e.g. Feature Planning Guide for Small Cell
solution, please refer to [1], [2], [3] and [4] in 4.1 Appendix A: Related Reading).
For more general information concerning 9360 Small Cell Solution, refer to [5].
The OAM solution for the Enterprise Cell is described in a dedicated document [6] Small Cell
Management System.
Many of the terms used in this document refer to definitions of the 3GPP standards. Whenever
an Alcatel-Lucent specific term is used, it is explicitly elaborated.
The Enterprise Cell Product Description is updated regularly under change control.
Information in this document is subject to change without notice and does not represent a
commitment on the part of the vendor or its representatives. No part of this document may be
reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including
photocopying, without the written permission of Alcatel-Lucent.
2.1 Overview
An Enterprise Cell is a wireless access point using licensed spectrum delivering improved
network reach and increased capacity while offloading traffic from the macro network.
Small Cell Access Points, 9366 Small Cell Gateway and Small Cell Management System (SCMS)
are included in 9360 Small Cell solution to allow a highly scalable interconnection to the
existing UMTS network over the existing standardized 3GPP interfaces. The Enterprise Cell
offers legacy support for Circuit Switched Voice and UMTS Packet Data with standard 3G
handsets.
The solution has been designed for an effective plug & play installation.
The high level system architecture for small cells as defined by 3GPP is depicted in the
diagram in Figure 1.

The 9360 Small Cell solution uses 3GPP interfaces to connect to the existing mobile core
network nodes while offering 3GPP compliant air interface. The backhaul connection from the
Access Point is IP and an IPsec Tunnel is used to guarantee a secure link. Furthermore, an Iu’
interface is supported between the Access Point and the 9366 Small Cells Gateway (which
9365 is part of) from BCR 3.0.
The architecture integrates seamlessly into the operator's existing 3GPP network, including the
3G MSC, SGSN and therefore existing Applications, Portals, Services through standard Iu-CS
and Iu-PS interfaces. For more information on the architecture of the solution please refer to
[7].
2.3 Enterprise Cell benefits
The Enterprise Cell can be installed in any indoor private places such as business
environments or indoor public places (shopping malls, airport…) and can bring a lot of
different benefits.
If installed in business offices, new sources of revenue from new corporate applications are
enabled by the enhanced indoor coverage and corporate networking possibilities. For instance,
with the presence location API feature, the users can be connected to the Small Cell Access
Points to take advantage of enterprise services. As an example, workers can be always
connected to the company anytime, anywhere through a mobile application. They can make
and receive their business calls as if they were in their office, thanks to a “One Number”
capability. Options such as call history, visual voice mails, corporate directory, call routing are
available on this kind of mobile application. Furthermore, an integration within Alcatel-Lucent
IP-PBX can also bring benefits such as short-cut dialing, access to My Instant Communicator…
If installed in indoor public places, the Enterprise Cell can be deployed in areas formerly
covered by microcells or picocells, but can also be used in many more cases, instead of
macrocells, since they are very easy to install and are less subject to regulatory constraints
with their low emission power. As a result, 10 to 100 Enterprise Cells may be deployed in
place of one macrocell. With a high capacity, the Enterprise Cell is ideal for high user density
places where additional capacity is required or even in areas where cell phone coverage is
needed on short notice. This deployment also allows new innovative applications such as
location, Quality of Service (QoS) and trusted security for application development.
Enterprise Cells also allow the operator to propose bundled offers and to include an entire
group of employees into a single agreement. This leads to reduce churn and to allow higher
revenue per user.
2.4 Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Cell
With a fully 3GPP compliant implementation, the Enterprise Cell allows the end user to use the
wide range of available 3G devices and applications with higher data rates and, depending on
the operator strategy, at lower call costs.
The Enterprise Cell uses a flat IP architecture, collapsing the traditional 3G Node B and RNC
functions into one. It also uses the same end to end solution as the Home Cell and Metro
Cells. It can be deployed in a network supporting a mix of Home, Enterprise and Metro Cells.
The table below summarizes Enterprise Cell V2.2 key performances related to each release:
Release
Performances BCR 2.4.1 BCR 3.0x
*
In release BCR 2.4.1, 16 users are supported simultaneously. From BCR 3.05, an 8 users
variant of the unit is available. Then both the 8 & 16 users variant can increase their
maximum number of users per step of 8 users to 32 users through licensing key to be
purchased additionally.
The Enterprise Cell case has a number of customization options. Please refer to the
Personalisation and Option Selection Guide for the concerned options [8]. Below are pictures
of the Alcatel-Lucent generic enclosure front and back view:

If PoE+ is used to supply the power, a PoE+ injector can be used while the AC/DC power
connector is not used. Otherwise, a PoE+ capable router can also be used. PoE+ capable
router and PoE+ injector are not part of the standard product delivery.
3G Network Listening
The 3G Network Listening feature allows the Enterprise Cell to act as a UE and receive
transmission from neighboring base stations. The feature also allows the Enterprise Cell to
automatically identify, measure and record its neighbor UMTS cells, eliminating the need for
operator provisioned neighbor cell lists. This information is used by the Enterprise Cell to
automatically select its primary scrambling code and power levels to transmit and to create
and update a list of UMTS neighbor cells. This neighbor cell list is used by the Enterprise Cell,
when in base station mode, for identification of the target cell for UMTS handover and for
rebroadcasting of the system information messages, in support of reselection by the UE.
2G Network listening
The Enterprise Cell supports a GSM receiver chain and can therefore receive the signal
transmitted by the 2G Macro network. The Enterprise Cell can search for and sync to a macro
base station, and then decode the BCCH channel. It can then retrieve the relevant information
to build and maintain 2G neighbor lists and target cells for IRAT handover and later, when in
base station mode, to broadcast to the UE for cell reselection. Measurements and information
are provided by the network listening feature to the auto-configuration and self-optimization
functions.
3.1.6 Antenna
Two internal omnidirectional 2G/3G antennas are included in the V2.2 Enterprise Cell.
The antenna gain is -2.5 dBi.
* Unlike below, the default antenna color will match the casing.
The V2.2 is capable of output power up to 250 mW. From BCR 3.0, the V2.2 will be proposed
in 100 mW, with a possibility to power unlock to 250 mW through licensing key to be
purchased additionally. Due to its transmit power, the V2.2 is part of 3GPP Medium Range BS
classification.
3.1.9 Reliability
The MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) is calculated based on Telcordia SR-332 Issue 2,
September 2006.
The MTBF of the 9362 Enterprise Cell V2.2 at 25°C on a stand position is about 60 years (526
Khours).
3.1.10 Security
A secure memory is used to authenticate and store sensitive data in the Access Point (i.e.
shared secret for authentication). From BCR 3.0, the V2.2 Enterprise can also support digital
certificate instead of this mechanism. However, once the authentication method is configured
in the product (either shared secret or digital certificate) then there is no way to change it
anymore.
As an option, forced opening of the casing causes permanent disablement of the unit. In this
case, repair process is not available as irreversible damage is caused to the printed circuit
board and a new one must be provided.
Four LEDs provide indication for power status, internet, service, use as shown in the table 6
below.
A status button is also present. Its purpose is to turn On/Off all the LEDs (except the Power
LED and the LEDs on the RJ45 ports).
O
Table 6: LEDs and status button indication
Assuming the service fully works, the power status LED color is red and all the other ones are
white.
On top of that, two LEDs provide status of each Ethernet port: first for connectivity and
second for activity. Ethernet LEDs switch off 60 seconds after RJ45 port being populated.
The Enterprise Cell is CE certified and meets the basic requirements of the Directive R&TTE
1999/5/EC on telecommunications terminal equipment, regarding electromagnetic interference
and also safety and health.
The Enterprise Cell is compliant with RoHS and WEEE as well as the standards listed in the
