ADVANTAGE OF 6 SECTOR DUAL BEAM TECHNOLOGY
When and Where are Dual Beam Antennas Required
Initially Hot Spots – Spectrum Limited Markets H.S Packet Data Changing Spectrum usage
Technology Benefits
Provide the expected capacity increase Capacity where you need it Maximum reuse of existing BTS platform
Cost Effectiveness
Capacity on a per sector increment – Lower CapEx Prevents Large Clusters needing a new carrier – Lower CapEx Lower Monthly Payments on power consumption – Lower OpEx
Existing Tri-Cellular Deployment
Hot Spot Dual Beam Deployment
