What are the new Mikrotik Intercel LTE access points? Will you have them in CBRS (3 ghz)?
Currently products supports only TDD Band38 and Band39.
You need the LTE Base Station for 3.5ghz? For which country and which exact LTE bands Band 42, 43 or 48?
Also what other requirements you have like output power, any other hardware/software features?
Here is info on the LTE bands:
http://niviuk.free.fr/lte_band.php
We need band 48 TDD 3500 CBRS (US) 3550 – 3700 for the US.
What about unlicensed 2.4 ghz in LTE?
Output power can be 1 W. Most of us are using https://baicells.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001047354-Nova-233-OD-1W-G2-FDD-TDD-eNB-Data-Sheet right now.
So the requirements are TDD BAND 48 with 1W output power.
You need only one cell (20mhz) 2x2 MIMO or you need CA support 20+20mhz (2 cells)?
About unlicensed 2.4ghz - which LTE band you are referring? Is it TDD BAND 41? If yes, maybe you could tell more which exact frequency range as the current B38 can be also adjusted to B41 with the range of 2570-2620mhz
TDD ban 48 at 1W watt, correct.
Both options would be great. Single channel and dual channel (CA).
For 2.4 ghz the frequency range is 2400 - 2500. ISM band.
Or band 42/43 would work. You already have a CPE for it. https://mikrotik.com/product/lhg_4g_kit
From the LTE band list I can’t find the band that is from 2400-2500. Maybe you know some product that support that so we could look what band it is?

When we would make a BaseStation for 3.5ghz we would need more detailed which exact band is the most used that users could use as we can’t make a Base station that supports all 3 bands (42,43,48).
For what distance you would need such Base Station?
We currently use Wimax in Canada in FWA Band ( 3.5Ghz Fixed Wireless Access ) and having LTE in this band ( LTE Band 42 ) with your hardware will be nice.
We currently use FWA Band D ( 3475-3500 ) and H ( 3575-3600 ) → https://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/smt-gst.nsf/eng/sf09311.html
More information about this spectrum use in canada can be find here
https://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/smt-gst.nsf/eng/sf02063.html
If we would go for B48 band it would be with 3550-3700 support. And we could enable the band mapping to B42 so it would support 3550-3600. So it means you would not have support for 3475-3550. Would that be ok, or you think we need to go for direct B42 full support?
Is there any plans for Canada to go for B48 or they will stay with B42 and B43?
Any other requirements for hardware - output power?
Uldis,
I have a unique enterprise deployment allowing (preferring) a band below 1GHz. Any band such as B44, B5, B6, B8, B17, B18, B19, B20, B26, B27, B28, B29 would be ideal. 2x 2x2 and output EIRP limited to 500mW. Are there any plans to support any of the Bands?
Is there a wiki or users manual available?
Thanks,
not yet, the device is not yet shipping.
Theoretically it is possible to make such device but it would require time and also a pre-order big volume of devices to justify the costs involved for designing/certifying/manufacturing for a specific band. If you are committed to that please contact support@mikrotik.com
And what about BAND 46 and 47:) ?
3550 - 3700 (CBRS) works great for people in the USA.
Eventually you’d need a software feature for the radios to talk to the SAS (spectrum access database).
LTE for mobile device are in band you already support, but we keep this frequency for mobile device currently ( we own some in our region ).
Will still be nice if we could use half of our FWA frequency to operate fixed wireless in LTE with your AP ( B48 ), as for the power currently we are limited to 1W in these frequency that was design for Fixed Wimax in Canada and that we own for some territory.
You need to check with your regulator … in Europe, most of spectrum licenses recently come as technology-agnostic (but might have strings attached, such as “use for public access” or something), hence other limitations (e.g. max EIRP) are not affected by particular RF technology used.
Which frequency you have that is already supported by us?
So B48 with part of B42/B43 would be ok?
Output power 1W with 2 carriers to make the Carrier aggregation like 20+20mhz?
Any other requirements?
What kind of volume you would need such product?
Please contact with all that info to support@mikrotik.com
It looks like we could make support for the SAS on the Base Station. The question is - is it required also on the LTE CPE or just on the the Base Station?
CPE just follows base station. Exactly as wifi station follows wifi AP.
