About This Part
The Ericsson KRC11873/2, an integral component of the Ericsson Radio System, is a high-performance Remote Radio Unit (RRU) identified as an RRUS 01 B3. This compact, weather-resistant unit is engineered for outdoor deployment, typically mounted near the antenna to minimize feeder losses. Its primary function is to convert digital baseband signals received via a CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) link from a Baseband Unit (BBU) into radio frequency (RF) signals for transmission, and vice-versa. Operating on LTE Band 3 (1800 MHz FDD), the KRC11873/2 supports advanced wireless communication standards, including multi-MIMO configurations, to enhance spectral efficiency and data throughput. Key technical specifications encompass its operational frequency range, typical output power per carrier, and its robust interface capabilities, ensuring seamless integration within modern 4G LTE networks and providing a pathway for future 5G NR evolution. The Ericsson KRC11873/2 is deployed extensively by mobile network operators (MNOs) globally to expand and optimize their cellular infrastructure. It is typically installed on cell towers, rooftops, utility poles, or other elevated structures, bringing the radio transceiver closer to the antenna. This distributed radio architecture significantly reduces RF feeder cable losses, thereby improving overall system efficiency, coverage, and capacity, especially in dense urban environments or areas requiring enhanced signal penetration. The unit supports various network configurations within the Ericsson Radio System, enabling operators to address challenges such as increasing data traffic demands, improving user experience, and extending network reach. It serves as a crucial upgrade or replacement for older, less efficient radio equipment, allowing for a more flexible and scalable network deployment strategy.
