4 FAQs about 5G Macro Base Station Power Cabinet IP55 Product Manual

What is a small cell in 5G?

Small cells are a new part of the 5G platform that increase network capacity and speed, while also having a lower deployment cost than macrocells. The compact size of a small cell requires that all components – especially power converters – provide high eficiency, better thermals and eventually the best power density possible.

How does EnerSys® meet the challenge of adding 5G capabilities?

EnerSys® meets the challenge of adding 5G capabilities to existing sites by providing our customers with the right amount of full-featured power and energy storage in the least amount of space. Adding 5G radios to existing macro cell sites requires different types of power and energy storage solutions.

How do small cells fit into the 5G ecosystem?

A cell tower (also called a macrocell) is a huge umbrella used to provide radio signals to thousands of users in large areas with minimal obstructions. To extend the coverage of a macrocell, distributive antenna systems (DASs) are used in conjunction with the cell tower.

How can a 5G base station be truly global?

To develop truly global 5G coverage, base stations will need to be installed across the world in some extremely inhospitable environments. This means that the new generation of base stations needs to be designed with environmental challenges and extreme weather in mind, such as the efects of humidity, heat and wind.
