Outdoor Macro Base Station BTS3900A

This outdoor macro base station supports both GSM-R and LTE — the ideal solution for railways that want to prepare for evolution to an LTE broadband network. One of the most compact outdoor macro base stations in the industry, the BTS3900A features a large, scalable capacity and multi-mode applications that meet the requirements of long-distance railways.

The base station cabinet contains as many as six RF modules. These multicarrier modules support both Huawei’s GSM-R 5.0 and the company’s enterprise LTE (eLTE). Use of this multi-radio base station (and similar indoor base stations) maximizes versatility while minimizing site deployment costs.

High Transmit Power

60W for frequency band R or 80W for frequency band E at the top of the base station cabinet.
Versatile

Can provide eLTE services as well as existing GSM-R services, with three RF modules used for LTE 3 x 3 MIMO.
Cost-Effective

The ability to incorporate multiple radio channels in a single base station (as well as remote radio units) reduces site deployment costs and equipment investment.
