2 Introduction
This section provides a descriptive overview of the Air4G-W24 (formally MacroMAXe) (3.x, 2.x
and 0707) and its place in the product suite.
2.1 Air4G-W24
Air4G-W24 is a highly integrated macro-cell base station with all-in-one packaging of RF and
baseband components. Air4G-W24 includes integrated quad RF transceivers to support four
channel diversity and MIMO. It is available as an all outdoor solution for Mobile WiMAX
applications to minimize physical footprint and operator OPEX.
Air4G-W24 fully supports the interoperable R6 reference point for interworking with ASN
Gateways. Air4G-W24 also has a “Stand Alone” mode for fixed/nomadic applications which do not
require seamless handover. When Air4G-W24 is used in “Stand Alone” mode there is no need for
an ASN Gateway. Air4G-W24 supports IP CS and Ethernet CS. It even supports a hybrid mode
where both IP CS and Ethernet CS (including VLAN support) are supported. Air4G-W24
implements dual 40dBm (10W) transmitters in 2.x GHz, dual 38 dBm (6.3W) in 700 MHz and dual
37dBm (5W) transmitters in 3.x GHz band.
Air4G-W24 is an outdoor radio that is mounted outside on a pole or wall. Air4G-W24 is available
in numerous frequency bands and in numerous channels see: Air4G-W24 Frequency Ranges.
Air4G-W24 is managed by an SNMP-based network management system (Netspan) using
standard and proprietary MIBs. Basic management can be performed using any standard Web
browser.
Note: For management refer to Air4G-W24 Commissioning documentation.
