Overview
The MobileAccess
VE
LTE 700 MHz MIMO solution provides enhanced, cost effective, in-building
LTE MIMO coverage for any small-to-large sized enterprise environment. This solution is quickly
and easily deployed using the existing Ethernet cabling infrastructure without affecting existing
LAN services or performance.
The
VE solution
distributes LTE MIMO service to VE Access Pods (VAPs) installed throughout the
enterprise, which distribute the services via integrated internal antennas (or optional external
antennas), and provide Ethernet connectivity and PoE pass-through to LAN terminals.
MobileAccess
VE
seamlessly coexists with the Enterprise LAN and does not consume LAN
capacity.
The VAPs are distributed on each floor and plug into existing standard Ethernet jacks. They are
powered via PoE technology and managed via a VE Control Unit (VCU) located in the floor’s
IDF/Telco closet. For site coverage that requires more than one VCU, several VCUs can be
aggregated under a single Master VCU. The Master VCU provides the interface to the carrier’s
capacity sources and management.
This enhanced LTE 700 MHz MIMO coverage solution can be quickly and easily installed with
minimal disturbance to the enterprise. In less than a few hours and with no additional cables
being required, a scalable and flexible solution is provided at a significantly lower total
installation cost.
The following figures illustrate
single-tier
and
multi-tier
VE installations.
In a single-tier installation the VCU is connected to both the service provider’s equipment and
the Ethernet switch, and distributes Ethernet and mobile services to up to 12 VAPs distributed
over one more adjacent floors.
