Andrew OteteProduct Line Engineer

Objectives

Understand what a Software Defined Remote Unit is

Define the need for a Software Defined Remote Unit

Identify the challenges faced by other solutions

List the advantages of the SDRU

Relate features to the total cost of ownership

5

Solving the Rollout Puzzle

Different carriers have different time frames when

joining a DAS system

Different carriers will add bands at different times

Carriers sometimes postpone joining a DAS for one

reason or another

When the decision is made to join a DAS then

implementation is a priority

Constricted time-frames for access are sometimes a

problem

6

Flexibility and phased rollouts create a strong case

for modular design

Hardware vs. Software

Software modularity is more desirable and cost effective solution

Introduction: Modularity

7

Installation Challenges for Hardware Modularity

Certified technicians required

Difficult to access remote units

Potential mistakes & added points of failure

Time consuming

System recommissioning

Increased cost to the operator

Legacy Solutions vs. SDRU

Requires physical transport & logistics

Inventory planning of modules

Requires more physical space & weight

Upgrades require time and impact uptime

High cost per-remote for field upgrades

Repeated access may impact IP rating Maintains NEMA/IP ratings

Upgraded remotely via SW

Inventory is a license key

Apply in seconds, unilaterally

Virtual shipping over the Internet

SDRU is compact in design

Fully integrated, eliminates fault pointsRequires backplane or cabling

Optimizing DAS Installation

• Time to install physical equipment and

cabling infrastructure

• Time to identify, configure and

commission a system

• Time to optimize the parameters for the

best user experience

• Time to add bands and or power is

minimized

TCO Benefits:

Overall reduced OPEX and CAPEX!

Fully integrated and compact BTS interfaces

Options for Low Power to High Power RF

Support for all RF sources

Integral to the overall administration of the system

Minimizing Equipment Footprint

Smaller footprint reduces cost

Remote Units can vary in size significantly

Power classes are important

Should be able to mix and match power classes as needed

Minimizing Equipment Footprint

It is more than signal level

RF signal quality (like EVM, NF) impacts the

performance and business case
