Leading manufacturer of advanced Mission Critical communications
systems, ETELM, has advanced plans to unveil e-LBS, a new eNodeB LTE base station with the longest
reach ever developed for PMR 4G
technology worldwide, at AfricaCom in Cape Town, South Africa, reports ITRealms.
ETELM also said that it plans to use
AfricaCom holding between November 15 and 17, to showcase its 4G Linked portfolio, the e-LBS is a major breakthrough for LTE
technology in Mission Critical applications such as “blue light” services and
will allow operators to boost their coverage areas from existing locations.
ITRealms reports that ETELM, which has over
35 years experience, globally,
has developed the e-LBS specifically to be compatible with existing LTE
infrastructure and is also producing technologies to embrace TETRA and PMR over
a single core network.
President, ETELM, Pierre Minot, said there is a massive market globally for a PMR optimized, long range LTE base
station and we are very excited to be launching this new solution next week at AfricaCom,”
“We have harnessed LTE’s
multi-broadcast features to ensure the widest possible coverage area from our eNodeB cell, including group
callfunctionality which is so
vital to Mission Critical users. Our
technology is the only one on the market which provides full integration between PMR
and LTE, and is designed for Enterprise and Mission
Critical LTE applications. It is ideal for
operators looking to offer
Enterprise solutions and extend
geographic coverage of their commercial networks at the same time.”
The e-LBS currently operates in the 700 MHz band (with plans for other bands like 400
MHz and 2.6 GHz in the near future), allowing a greater broadband coverage, significantly outperforming typical macro-cell sizes of
traditional eNodeB. It operates
in a channel bandwidth of 1.4 MHz
to 10 MHz and has
full local or remote
configuration and monitoring.
Minot continued: “The
e-LBS base station is fully compliant with the LTE standard developed by 3GPP
and so is compatible with any LTE Core network. We have already developed a range of PMR base station
products that implement the LTE
protocol stack, thereby allowing our radio sites to directly and seamlessly
connect to any LTE backhaul. In the future
alloperators will probably use the LTE core network, so having
the ability and flexibility to directly connect both narrowband and broadband base
stations onto this international standard network offers major advantages to them for inter-technology communications.”
ETELM is dedicated to offering fully integrated, multi-technology
solutions based on
internationally recognised communications standards. ETELM will be exhibiting at this year’s AfricaCom on stand E4, which is part of the
FrenchPavilion. For further
