l
The ePico3801 supports HSPA to provide high-speed stable data services. Users can easily
enjoy high-quality UMTS services.
High Usability Lowering Costs of Network Construction and Maintenance
l
In the uBro solution, ePico3801s used for single-point coverage are entirely Plug and Play
(PnP) devices. Therefore, the installation and commissioning of ePico3801s are convenient,
lowering the costs of deployment and optimization. With ePico3801s, a UMTS network
can be deployed quickly.
l
If installed in an office building, ePico3801s do not require a private equipment room. Users
install the ePico3801s and provide the power supply themselves. In addition, the
ePico3801s are easy to transport. Thus, the network construction costs of mobile operators
are lowered.
l
Using the IPSec tunneling mode, ePico3801s are connected to the core network through
the public IP network. The ePico3801s make full use of IP transmission resources and
guarantee security in IP transmission. Thus, network construction costs are significantly
lowered.
l
Using the AP manager, which is a uniform management and maintenance platform, the
ePico3801 automatically performs network discovery and parameter settings. The
ePico3801 supports intelligent network planning and optimization, and software upgrades
are automated. Thus, the usability is improved, and the network maintenance and
optimization costs are lowered.
Powerful Mechanism Guaranteeing Security
l
Using the IKEv2 protocol to perform IPSec negotiation, the ePico3801 supports EAP-SIM
and EAP-AKA authentication to guarantee network security.
l
The ePico3801 supports user management and admission control. Thus, unauthorized UEs
cannot use the ePico3801, and the user's investments are protected.
l
The emergency call function provides high security for users.
l
For the North American market, the ePico3801 meets the requirements for the E911
location function at a high precision. When a user dials an emergency number, the call
request is first processed by the public safety answering point (PSAP) and then quickly
forwarded to the local police department, emergency medical center, firefighting
department, or legislative agency. By determining the location of the UE through GPS, the
organization concerned can trace the user and provide help in time.
Variety of Functions Raising User Satisfaction
l
The ePico3801 supports AGPS.
l
The ePico3801 supports customized location indication functions to inform UEs of the
accurate network coverage. Compared with the macro UMTS network, the uBro network
covered by ePico3801s provides better coverage and enables mobile operators to offer
lower tariffs.
l
Handovers and cell reselection can be performed between an ePico cell and a macro cell
to ensure that the user chooses a network that provides a higher service quality at a lower
tariff.
l
The ePico3801 supports static relocation that complies with the 3GPP Uu interface
protocol. In addition, The ePico3801 supports soft handovers to ensure service continuity
when UEs move, thus improving user experience.
