Overview CommScope OneCell system OneCell hardware components 1-2 1-2 1-3 D R A F T OneCell Installation, RP5000 series, Release 4.0 1-1 Chapter 1 CommScope OneCell overview Overview OneCell is a revolutionary wireless system that can deliver the ultimate in wireless performance. It eliminates cell borders and handovers It can cover a large area with consistent user experience without any significant interference It can take advantage of multiple distributed radio points to deliver a stronger signal on both the downlink and the uplink It can deliver greater capacity through distributed (multi-user and single-user) MIMO and Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) It has the flexibility to neutralize macro interference in co-channel small cell deployments It can be used to deliver unprecedented levels of capacity to hot spot areas by deploying radio points with overlapping coverage and enabling multi- user MIMO In addition to these important benefits in user experience and data capacity, OneCell provides superior economics and investment protection, ease of deployment, support for multi-operator deployments. CommScope OneCell system OneCell is an in-building, enterprise solution for LTE that provides an in-building consistent signal. It operates as a wireless network with a single cell, called a Baseband Controller, over distributed Radio Points. Network operators benefit from the OneCell because they reduce the load on their infrastructure. T F A R D 1-2 M0300A2 4.0.11 January 2020 Figure 1-1.

Radio Point Mounting plate Mounting bolts (M8 Hex) RJ45, IP67 connector for CAT 6A cables Figure 5-1. Hardware provided by CommScope NOTE An M8 hex wrench is required to install mounting bolts. Mounting the Radio Point (RP) on a pole requires the following hardware provided by the system integrator:
Two U bolts Four nuts OneCell Installation, RP5000 series, Release 4.0 5-2 D R A F T Chapter 5 RP5100r installation RJ45, IP67 connector for CAT 5E NOTE If the MR port is connected to a switch that does not provide IEEE802.3bt, type-4 PoE power, the SR port can be used to provide power with a PoE++ injector. In this case, the installer needs to provide a CAT 5E MPN 17-10044 connector (https://
www.conec.com/catalog/en/rj45-stecker-set.html) to connect the RJ45 to the SR port. For more information, see OneCell Network Planning Guide (M0300A1). Figure 5-2. Hardware provided by the systems integrator Mounting the Radio Point (RP) on a wall requires the following hardware provided by the system integrator:
Four molly screws capable 50 lb (23 kg) minimum rating NOTE Once the Radio Point is installed and the powered on, it may take up to 20 minutes for the frequency to stabilize and lock. Before connecting the Ethernet cables to the RP, terminate the RP end of the Ethernet cable with the RJ45, IP67 connector. T F A R D 5-3 M0300A2 4.0.11 January 2020 Figure 5-3.
