About This Part
The Ericsson KRE1012232/1 is a high-performance active GPS antenna, a critical component within Ericsson's extensive portfolio of network synchronization solutions. Designed for robust outdoor deployment, this antenna typically features a compact, weather-resistant form factor, ensuring reliable operation in diverse environmental conditions. Its primary function is to acquire and amplify satellite signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) constellation, delivering highly accurate timing and synchronization references. Key technical specifications include operation on the L1 frequency band (1575.42 MHz) and the integration of a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) to boost signal strength and minimize interference, crucial for maintaining signal integrity. Power is typically supplied via phantom power over the coaxial cable, simplifying installation. This antenna provides the foundational timing data necessary for protocols such as PPS (Pulse Per Second), PTP (Precision Time Protocol), and NTP (Network Time Protocol), ensuring sub-microsecond accuracy when paired with a compatible GPS receiver unit. The Ericsson KRE1012232/1 is indispensable for maintaining the operational integrity of modern telecommunications networks and data centers. It is commonly installed on rooftops, antenna masts, communication towers, and other elevated outdoor locations to ensure an unobstructed view of GPS satellites. This active antenna supports a wide array of network platforms, including Ericsson Radio Base Stations (RBS), microwave backhaul systems, and various core network elements that demand stringent timing synchronization. Mobile network operators (MNOs), fixed-line service providers, and large enterprise networks leverage this technology to prevent issues like dropped calls, improve data throughput, and enable advanced features such as carrier aggregation and MIMO in 4G LTE and 5G deployments. By providing precise timing, it solves critical synchronization problems, ensuring seamless handovers and efficient resource allocation across the network, thereby enhancing overall service quality and operational stability.
