About This Part
The Ericsson KRC161490/2, identified as a Radio 2217B1, is a critical component within modern cellular network infrastructure, functioning as an advanced radio unit. As part of Ericsson's comprehensive portfolio of radio access network (RAN) solutions, this unit is engineered to facilitate efficient wireless communication between user equipment and the core network. Its form factor is optimized for outdoor deployment, typically mounted on towers, poles, or rooftops, ensuring broad coverage and robust performance in varying environmental conditions. The primary function of the KRC161490/2 is to transmit and receive radio signals, converting digital baseband signals into radio frequency (RF) signals and vice-versa. Key technical specifications for units in this family often include multi-band support, high output power for extended reach, and advanced antenna system compatibility. These radios are designed to support various mobile communication protocols, including LTE and potentially 5G, providing high data rates and low latency essential for current and future mobile broadband services. Its robust design ensures reliable operation and seamless integration into existing Ericsson RAN ecosystems. The Ericsson KRC161490/2 is predominantly installed in macro cell sites and urban micro cell deployments, forming the backbone of mobile broadband networks globally. It supports Ericsson's Baseband 6000 series and other compatible baseband units, creating a complete radio access network solution. Telecom operators across all tiers, from national carriers to regional service providers, utilize this equipment to expand network capacity, improve coverage in underserved areas, and enhance data throughput for their subscribers. This radio unit is instrumental in solving common network challenges such as congestion in high-traffic zones, inadequate indoor coverage, and the need for higher spectral efficiency. By deploying or upgrading with the KRC161490/2, operators can effectively replace older, less efficient radio units, migrate to newer technologies like LTE-Advanced or prepare for 5G non-standalone (NSA) deployments, and meet the ever-increasing demand for mobile data. Its versatility makes it suitable for various industries requiring robust wireless connectivity, including smart cities, transportation, and enterprise private networks.
