1.1 Introduction
The Baicells Nova-227 Outdoor 2*250mW Time Division Duplexing (TDD) eNodeB (eNB) is an
outdoor micro base station that enables wired and wireless broadband access to Long-Term
Evolution (LTE) backbone networks (Figure 1-1). The low-cost Nova-227 eNB supports high-
speed broadband data and voice services, helping telecom operators, broadband operators,
and enterprises to serve customers in locations that might otherwise be difficult to reach.

The eNB is a component of the operator's cell site and includes an integrated Global
Positioning System (GPS). Optionally, the operator may install external GPS antennas with each
eNB. The operator selects and provides one omni or directional Radio Frequency (RF) antenna
to install with each eNB. Each eNB comes pre-configured so that installation is simplified and
connection to the core network is plug-and-play.
Baicells provides operators with local and Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) software
applications to configure and manage individual eNBs and Customer Premise Equipment (CPE).
Additionally, Baicells offers a Software-as-a-Service (SAAS) solution called CloudCore.
CloudCore, also referred to as BaiCloud, handles the LTE Evolved Packet Core (EPC) network
functions (Figure 1-2) and provides operators an account to use the Operations Management
Console (OMC) for managing multiple sites across the network and the Business and
Operations Support System (BOSS) for subscriber management.
NOTE: Local versions of EPC and OMC+BOSS are also available. For information on
these options, please contact your Baicells sales representative.
