Dual Band EnCOVER VE™ Instant Coverage Solution User Manual

Overview 

MobileAccess EnCOVER VE™ Dual-Band solution provides enhanced, cost effective in-building 
dual-band coverage for small to large-sized enterprises. This solution is quickly and simply 
deployed using the existing Ethernet cabling infrastructure to provide instant coverage without 
requiring the installation of new cables. 

The

 

EnCOVER VE™ solution

 

distributes two types of services to EnCOVER VE™ Access Pods 

(VAPs) installed throughout the enterprise: wireless services from the service provider’s 
equipment and Ethernet services from the corporate LAN. The Access Pods distribute the 
wireless services via integrated internal antennas, and provide Ethernet connectivity to the LAN 
terminals. (Optionally, external antennas can be connected to the Access Pods for additional 
coverage optimization). 

The VAPs are distributed on each floor and plug into standard Ethernet jacks already installed at 
the enterprise site. They are powered via PoE technology and managed via an EnCOVER VE™ 
Control Unit (VCU) located in the floor’s communication shaft. For site coverage that requires 
more than one VCU (each VCU supports up to 12 VAPs), several VCUs (up to 12) can be 
aggregated under a single VCU serving as Master. The Master VCU provides the interface to the 
capacity source, the service provider’s equipment and for management of all units. 

This enhanced Dual Band coverage solution can be easily and quickly installed (in less than a 
few hours) with minimal disturbance to the enterprise (as no installation of additional cables is 
required). 

Currently, the VE™ Dual-Band system is available for the following band combinations:  

•

 

EGSM-UMTS 

•

 

CELL-PCS 

•

 

DCS-UMTS 

The following figures illustrate single-tier and multi-tier EnCOVER VE™ installations. 

In a single-tier installation, the VCU is connected to the service provider’s equipment and to the 
Ethernet switch and distributes Ethernet and mobile services to up to 12 VAPs distributed over 
one more adjacent floors.
