Tri-Band Twelve Port Antenna

TPA65R-TE8C

				Eight foot (2.5 m) Tri-Band, twelve port antenna with a 65° azimuth beamwidth covering 614-896 MHz and 1695-2690 MHz frequencies Eight wide high band ports covering 1695-2690 MHz and four wide low band ports covering 614-896 MHz in a single antenna enclosure Full Spectrum Compliance 614-896 MHz / 1695-2690 MHz Innovative Low and High Band Array configuration allows for 4T4R (4x4 MIMO) on Low Band and Dual 4T4R (4x4 MIMO) High Band Arrays, using full length arrays (non stacked) LTE Optimized FBR and SPR performance, providing for an efficient use of valuable radio capacity LTE Optimized Boresight and Sector XPD and USL performance, essential for LTE Performance Exceeds minimum PIM performance requirements Equipped with new 4.3-10 connector, which is 40% smaller than traditional 7/16 DIN connector Ordering options for External RET Controllers (Type 1) or Internally Integrated RET Controllers (Type 17)

Overview

The CCI 12-Port TriBand array is a twelve port antenna, with eight wide high band ports covering 1695-2690 MHz and four wide low band ports covering 614-896 MHz. The antenna provides the capability to deploy Dual 4×4 Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) in the high band and 4X4 MIMO across low band ports. The CCI 12-Port high band ports have independent tilt control between left and right antenna arrays.

In this three RET configuration, the 1st RET is dedicated for the four Low Band ports. The 2nd RET is dedicated for the four Left High Band ports and the 3rd RET is dedicated for the four Right High Band ports. This RET arrangement allows for complete flexibility in coverage control between left and right high band antenna arrays.

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

Applications

Dual 4×4 MIMO for the High Band and 4X4 MIMO Low Band ports
Ready for Network Standardization on 4.3-10 DIN connectors
With CCI’s TriBand antennas, wireless providers can connect multiple platforms to a single antenna, reducing tower load, lease expense, deployment time and installation costs
