Six-Sector Turnkey Solution: Boost capacity, minimize deployment expensesand streamline new service rollouts.


2/8

Todays mobile subscribers have a voracious appetitefor data. As smartphones flood the wireless market,the demand for higher data throughput continues toskyrocket. As a result, operators are searching forsimple, cost-effective ways to add capacity. Timely roll-

out of new 3G and 4G services is key to addressingsubscriber needs and protecting their reputation forefficiency and reliability.

Are you prepared to

address the demandfor more capacity?

In an industry oftight margins, how can

operators profit fromthe added capacity theirsubscribers expect?

But the path to increased capacityisnt always simple or cost-effective.Network upgrades often present seriousinstallation challenges. Integrating newequipment into legacy systems addscomplexity and wind load at the topof the tower. Improper deploymentscan create more problems than theysolve. Once the installation process

is complete, you need specializedresources to support and maintain thediverse technologies and architectureswithin your network.

How are your competitors

trying to solve this problem?When operators need to add capacity, they typically

build new cell sites or split sectors by adding more

antennas to existing sites. However, both options are

time-consuming and expensive, so your competitors

are asking the same questions you are:

Build new cell sites?

The expense, time and effort required to deploy a new

site is significant. Deployment costs and regulatory

approvals can easily delay the installation of new sites

for up to 2 years. Given these challenges, operators

understand that this option is no longer realistic.

Add more equipment to my existing sites?

Traditional sector-splitting is tedious. The conversion

process overlays new technology onto older

infrastructure, requiring a complete radio frequency

path to the base station for each new sector. You

may also need filters, tower-mounted amplifiers or

multi-band combiners, which can cause compatibility

issues and pile on the expenses. Zoning challenges,

leasing fees and extra wind load can add even more

complexity to the process.

What if youcould nearlydouble yourcapacity without addingmore antennas?

There are two simple ways to reduce

To address immediate capacity issues and

help you better manage upgrade costs,

CommScope has developed an advanced

sectorization solution that allows you to

enjoy six-sector performance using only

three antennas. Its quick, simple and cost-

effective. Now you can essentially double

capacity while cutting new site deployment

CapEx in half and reducing long-term tower

leasing OpEx. You and your network will be

ready for the capacity demands of the future

without adding more antennas to your

tower load or breaking your budget.

Our Six-Sector Turnkey Solutionis based on Twin Beam antenna

technology: lightweight, compact,

extended-tilt neatly packaged in a

very narrow radome. The beams

are precisely aligned to avoid sector

overlap, contain interference, optimize

available spectrum and enable use of

faster data services.

RET-capable Twin Beam antennas are

a cost-effective, low-risk alternative for

managing bandwidth and base station

density dilemmas. Twin Beam extends

the usefulness of existing infrastructure,

allowing you to defer adding cell

sites or spectrum while you increase

average revenue per subscriber.

Supports all major mobile

technologies

Single-band and multi-band options

offer effective support for GSM, 3G,

and LTE applications in 698894

MHz, 824960 MHz and 1710

2170 MHz bands.

While improved signal performance

begins with our Twin Beam antenna

technology, the antenna itself is only

one aspect of this comprehensive
