Overview
The Baicells Nova430e is a two-carrier outdoor LTE TDD base station (eNodeB) rated 4x250 mW that connects to external antennas through N-type connectors, giving more control over coverage than the integrated-antenna Nova430i.[1] It runs two carriers aggregated (carrier aggregation, CA) or as two independent cells (dual carrier, DC) in CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) Band 48.[1] The base software includes HaloB, Baicells' embedded EPC (core) option, and the radio is set up out of the box for Baicells CloudCore while also working with standard LTE cores.[1][2]
