Ericsson, Swisscom deploy Radio Dot System for high-capacity 5G
Voice and Data
|July,2023
European E communications service providers Swisscom and Ericsson have deployed a new feature that allows them to deliver high-capacity indoor 5G to enterprise customers within a 10 km radius, from one centralised location.
-
The new feature complements Ericsson's indoor 5G solution, utilises fibre and hybrid fibre cables to provide power and data to active indoor antennas (Radio Dots) from the Indoor Radio Unit (IRU), extending cable reach from 300 m to an impressive 10 km.
The extended cable reach offered by fibre-based rollouts allows for more flexible deployment options, including remote IRU placement in challenging or costly locations. This enhances solution scalability across various venues and deployment use cases, enabling Swisscom to provide high-capacity indoor 5G to more venues faster, with up to 80% less equipment required on-premises and reduced service effort, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership.
