The CCI Six/Three-Beam Special Events Antenna is an LTE ready multi-beam, multi-band antenna that simultaneously supports (6) high band and (3) low band sectors from a single antenna. This Six/Three-Beam Antenna is intended for use at sporting and entertainment venues where social media and the ability to share photos and videos demand high capacity and high data rates. The high band ports provide coverage for PCS 1900 MHz band while the low band ports provide SMR 800 and Cellular 850 MHz capability in a  compact, three foot (1.0 m) high single enclosure. Each beam is fed by a pair of +45° and -45° cross-polarized ports. The high band beams are each roughly 15 degrees apart and each pair are evenly juxtaposed on the three low band beams. This antenna segments large audiences into multiple sectors thus enabling maximum spectrum re-use by sectorization, providing as much as nine times increase in network capacity. Our unique beam shaping technology 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, UMTS/HSPA+ and CDMA/EVDO networks. Such an approach enhances data transfer rates within LTE, UMTS and EVDO network sectors and addresses “hotspots” in mobile wireless operator networks.

The single panel design of the CCI Six/Three-Beam 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.
