In order to ensure a high quality of calls, the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station
supports versatile features, such as frequency hopping.
Due to its compact size, low weight, and high level of integration, the Nokia
MetroSite EDGE Base Station is fast and easy to install, either indoors or
outdoors with minimal preparations. Both wall and pole installations are
supported. From the network planning point of view, the Nokia MetroSite EDGE
Base Station can be installed at optimal locations. The plug-in construction of the
Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station also provides great flexibility when, for
example, capacity expansion is considered.
In addition to its other versatile and advanced properties, the Nokia MetroSite
EDGE Base Station is designed for easy commissioning. This has been achieved
by the Nokia MetroSite BTS Manager, which incorporates a commissioning
wizard and BTS configuration autodetection.
The Nokia MetroSite EDGE base station’s size and ease of deployment help the
operator to reduce site planning and site acquisition costs. The fast start-up and
the quick integration into the network enable immediate revenue flow to the
operator. Furthermore, the operational costs are low as the BTS management is to
a large extent carried out remotely from the OSS.
