This CCI Dual Band Multifunction Multibeam Antenna contains Nine Independent (Three for Low Band and Six for Mid Band) LTE Optimized Beams with 4x4 MIMO capability or Eighteen Independent LTE Optimized Beams with 2x2 MIMO capability covering 698-896 MHz and 1695-2180 MHz frequencies. This Dual Band Multifunction Multibeam Antenna is intended for use at data hotspots and other congested locations, where social media and the ability to share photos and videos and other high demand applications require high capacity and high data rates.

This Dual Band Multifunction Multibeam Antenna enables maximum spectrum re-use by sectorization, greatly increasing network capacity. With deployment of 4x4 MIMO (on any of the beams available), capacity and data throughput is greatly enhanced, over a conventional 2x2 MIMO beam deployment. Our LTE Optimized Beam Design approach provides fast roll off between beams, minimizing interference between sectors thus increasing the carrier to interference plus noise (CINR) ratio and lowering soft handover losses in LTE networks. Such an approach enhances data transfer rates within LTE network sectors and addresses “hotspots” in mobile wireless operator networks.

The single panel design of the CCI Dual Band Multifunction Multibeam Special Event Antenna offers the opportunity to reduce antenna count and directly replaces multiple narrow beam antennas. The antenna minimizes the need for optimization as each beam is spaced optimally for maximum throughput thus providing significant CAPEX and OPEX cost savings.

CCI antennas are designed and produced to ISO 9001 certification standards for reliability and quality in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities.
