With the prevalence of commercial LTE network spread around the world,

LTE macro coverage has already been extended to the remote and rural

areas. Now mobile operators can have more options to provide both mobile

broadband and fixed broadband services.

Comba LTE Outdoor CPE

Comba LTE Outdoor CPE facilitates mobile operator to use LTE cellular network to

provide indoor fixed broadband service which is now mainly dominated by fixed

network operator. Mobile operators invest billions of dollars to bid new spectrum,

deploying new LTE base station to fulfill subscriber booming growth of data traffic.

In rural area, the LTE market is still under development and the network is

underutilization. By adding the LTE CPE, operator can make use of the cellular

infrastructure to increase the adaption of LTE service and customer loyalty by

providing bundle package of mobile and fixed broadband services, hence increase

the revenue sources with low Capex investment.

Robust Enclosure and Easy Deployment

Comba LTE outdoor CPE has robust enclosure designed for outdoor pole installation

with IP65 ingress protection. Its Power over Ethernet (PoE) feature requires only 1

Ethernet cable to run from outdoor LTE CPE to indoor area, the indoor end of the

Ethernet cable connects a PoE adapter and then to PC or an indoor Wi-Fi router.

The LTE CPE acts as a router and provides DHCP, NAT service to devices

connected to its LAN ports. It supports bandwidth control and load balancing

between devices under it.

Comba LTE Outdoor CPE currently supports TDD LTE Band 38/39/40/4, FDD LTE

frequency bands can be customized based on customer requirement. The LTE CPE

is compliant with 3GPP User Equipment Category 4 standard and has maximum

50Mbps uplink and 150Mbps downlink data throughput respectively. It supports

SNMP for central management, monitoring and configuration remotely.

The LTE CPE has integrated 12dBi high gain panel antenna and has 200mW output

power. The recommended operation distance between CPE and base station is

within 3km and support non line of sight operation.

Advantages over Wi-Fi solution

Compared with Wi-Fi technology based fixed wireless broadband solution, LTE fixed

wireless broadband solution has several advantages.

First, LTE CPE works with existing LTE infrastructure, only small amount of

investment is enough. Secondly, Wi-Fi based solution operated on unlicensed band

and based on collision detection algorithm, the quality of service cannot be

guaranteed as LTE cellular system. Thirdly, Wi-Fi based system use captive portal,

MAC address or PPPoE for user authentication, the security for access control and

user data is less secured than SIM based cellular system. Fourthly, Wi-Fi protocol is

original designed for indoor small area coverage, it does not work well in outdoor

and long distance, and the Wi-Fi based solution require light of sight between CPE

and outdoor Access Point while LTE CPE supports non line of sight operation.

Proven Solution

Hundreds of thousand Comba LTE outdoor CPE has been shipped and deployed in

various parts of China and serving operator subscriber in rural area. It has been

integrated and worked with LTE radio access and core network from all well-known

LTE infrastructure vendors in the world.
