Подробная спецификация (на сайте Cisco)

The Cisco ^® Universal Small Cell (USC) 5310 takes advantage of the flexible, modular design of the Cisco Aironet 3600 Series and is part of the end-to-end Cisco ^® Small Cell Solution. The Cisco USC 5310 offers mobile operators a licensed radio network extension that can be rapidly deployed onto the footprint of the award-winning Cisco Aironet 3600 Series Wi-Fi access point, creating a new platform for mobile broadband services.

The Cisco USC 5310 is field-upgradeable and contains a dedicated third-generation (3G) small cell base station that can efficiently deliver mobile services indoors while offloading traffic from the outdoor macro network. This approach not only improves the mobile user experience, but it also reduces costs by eliminating the need for dedicated macro base station sites, reducing the need to acquire new small cell real estate and decreasing the backhaul infrastructure required to support small cell deployments.

Together, the Cisco Aironet 3600 Series access point and the Cisco USC 5310 allow operators to provide state-of-the-art Wi-Fi infrastructure that supports both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, along with a modern 3G base station infrastructure at the same site (Figure 1). The Cisco USC 5310 is available in two RF band variants to address the global market: Band 2/5 for the Americas and Band1 for the rest of the world.

Modular Flexibility and Efficiency

Three key challenges face mobile operators interested in deploying licensed small cells: where to install them, how to power them, and how to backhaul the traffic. Cisco solves these problems with innovation. Building on the Cisco Aironet heritage of robust, award-winning Wi-Fi access point design, the Cisco Aironet 3600 Series delivers extreme flexibility with its modular configuration. The Cisco USC 5310 is the first licensed radio module to take advantage of this flexibility by delivering a fully integrated, high-performance, low-cost 3G small cell. This Cisco design includes the following benefits.

• Reduced network costs and operations: By integrating the Cisco USC 5310 into the Cisco Aironet 3600 Series, customers can replace up to two separate access points and their separate functions with a single, multipurpose Cisco Aironet 3600 Series access point.

• Reduced capital expenditures: A single Ethernet connection (cable and port) from a wired network to deploy a licensed radio can be reused, which lowers the capital expenditure (CapEx) that would be required if two separate cable runs were needed. By integrating all these features into a single access point, customers also simplify the day-to-day management and monitoring of their wireless infrastructure and network with a greatly reduced number of access points. The Cisco USC 5310 appears as a new device in the existing management infrastructure, reducing support costs.

• Easier installation and power up with zero-touch configuration: Fewer steps are required to enable the Cisco USC 5310 to run in a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) environment. This approach can quickly provide 3G coverage to end users. The Cisco USC 5310 is simply inserted and secured into any Cisco Aironet 3600 Series access point. When the access point is powered, the module is initialized, configured, and authorized in real time by the operator and can immediately begin 3G voice, data, and messaging services.

• Secure, carrier-grade 3G base station technology: The Cisco USC 5310 provides the technology equivalent to an in-building mini cell tower. The device is secure on the air link from the module to the user, as well as on the Ethernet-based wired link. It is fully managed by the mobile operator and provides 3G signals inside the building for voice, data, and messaging services for up to 16 simultaneous users within a coverage area of approximately 7000 square feet (800 square meters).

• Standards-based technology: The Cisco USC 5310 operates as a Home Node B (HNB) in the standard Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) architecture for small cells and is connected to the network using the specified Iuh interface. This architecture provides a rapid-deployment model for the operator reusing an existing HNB network infrastructure.

Additional Cisco USC 5310 3G Benefits

• Superior indoor signal strength and capacity: The Cisco USC 5310 significantly increases signal strength throughout a building or site, resulting in excellent voice quality and call clarity, as well as consistent connectivity with high-capacity call handling.

• High data speeds for an enhanced multimedia experience: By providing a tailored local base station, operators can support data throughput on mobile devices at speeds that outpace what is available from the macro network in the poor signal conditions typically found indoors.

• Self-optimization based on back-end network intelligence: This intelligent self-optimization helps operators manage millions of devices easily, so they do not cause interference with neighboring infrastructure devices such as other Cisco USC 5310 modules, residential and enterprise small cells, picocells, and macrocell towers.

• Simplicity and convenience: Subscribers can use their existing mobile phones and applications, and standards-based, zero-touch provisioning allows end users to "plug and play."

• New enterprise services: The module supports next-generation services such as enterprise voice services.

The following benefit adds to the advantages provided by Cisco Service Provider (SP) Wi-Fi, which is a proven carrier-grade solution that scales to support exponential traffic growth from millions of users, delivers a transparent mobility experience for the end user, and is built on open standards, including Wi-Fi Certified Passpoint.

• With the Cisco USC 5310, the host Cisco Aironet 3600 Series access point can continue its standard Wi-Fi services in parallel with the 3G base station.
