In booth 6B52 at Mobile World Congress, 2nd to 5th March in Barcelona, TE Connectivity will showcase innovative, digital distributed small cell systems and fibre connectivity solutions. The TE booth will feature an innovation centre for customers, press and analysts, as well as a general viewing area, which will include:

  • A Passive Optical Network (PON) integrated with TE’s FlexWave Prism digital distributed small cell product to illustrate the efficiencies in wireline and wireless integration to save costs, speed deployment or introduce new lines of business;
  • A carrier BaseBand Unit (BBU) integrated into a TE distributed small cell system via the CPRI interface, which eliminates racks of RF and attenuation panels in a head-end deployment, slashing head-end space, power and costs; and
  • FlexWave Prism high-power DAS, capable of supporting up to eight frequency bands or 300MHz of spectrum, for multi-operator service in buildings in locations challenged with signal dominance, or in buildings upgrading passive systems for 3G and 4G services

In the booth’s innovation centre, TE will showcase forward-looking technologies and products including:

  • A demonstration of a new and highly cost-effective distributed small cell solution for small/medium-sized buildings;
  • TE’s Active Integration Panel (AIP) which streamlines head-end connectivity and enables remote network monitoring, with TDD-LTE compatibility;
  • A PoE extender solution for TE’s powered fibre cable system, which extends the reach of PoE to 3,000m; and
  • TE’s Quareo physical layer management system, which provides real-time documentation and visibility into the physical network.

Peter Wraight, Vice President and General Manager, Wireless, TE Connectivity, comments: “TE Connectivity remains on the leading edge of innovation in mobile wireless infrastructure products the Mobile World Congress allows us to showcase our solutions for the world. By expanding our all-digital mobile wireless portfolio to support new and more cost-effective distributed small cell deployments, TE is making wireless networks smarter and more efficient for mobile operators, neutral hosts and building owners.”
