Introduction 1.1. Description The Baicells Atom OD15 Outdoor Low-Gain and Outdoor High-Gain User Equipment (UE) is part of a broadband wireless access system that integrates with Long-Term Evolution (LTE) backhaul networks to provide subscribers with Internet access. The UE, also referred to as Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), communicates through a wireless connection to the operator’s eNodeB’s (eNB) at cell sites located in the...

The Device Info pane displays the product name, software version, serial number, etc. The LTE Status pane shows important operational information, such as the CPE's SIM card status and its IMSI and IMEI numbers, wireless frequency being used, eNB connection status, and current signal strength and quality. Under Throughput Statistics you will see downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) data rates for current throughput (kbps), average rates, peak rates, and total throughput.

EARFCN The E-UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number (band and frequency) within which the CPE operates Bandwidth The range of frequencies within the band the CPE may use for wireless communications with an eNB, expressed in MHz CINR The Channel Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio reflects the signal strength of the signal received from the two antennas in the eNB, expressed in decibels (dB) NOTE: Additional SINR values are reported when a transmitting device is using more than two antennas.
2.6. Network Menu 2.6.1. LAN Settings Enter the Network > LAN DHCP Server enable, IP address, subnet mask, DHCP range, lease time, UPNP enable. Figure 8: DHCP Settings DHCP Static Leases settings can set by the host’s MAC address. Figure 9: DHCP Static Leases...
2.6.2. WAN Settings 2.6.2.1. NAT Mode The CPE will be worked at NAT mode, and all 8 APNs can be configured by Default router/Data/Mgmt/Voip bear types. Figure 10: WAN Settings 2.6.2.2. Router Mode When selected Router mode, the CPE will worked at router mode, it can dynamic update router tables. Figure 11: Router Mode 2.6.2.3.
Figure 12: Tunnel Mode 2.6.2.4. Bridge Mode When the CPE worked at Bridge mode, the WAN ports address will bridge to LAN port, and the LAN port will worked at trunk mode. Figure 13: Bridge Mode 2.6.2.5. Mixed Mode Mixed mode can configured every APN with different mode (e.g. Bridge), this is a professional mode.
Figure 14: Mixed Mode 2.6.3. Static Routes Set Static routes of the CPE, it can configure LAN or WAN port routes, Gateway, Destination Network and Route Subnet Mask, in Current Settings, show all activated static routes. Figure 15: Static routes...
2.6.4. In technology, the DMZ refers to a firewall between incoming WAN traffic and the LAN to which the CPE is connected. Two basic DMZ methods are (a) using a single firewall, also known as the three-legged model, and (b) using dual firewalls (Figure 36). These architectures can be expanded to create complex architectures depending on the network requirements.
2.7. LTE Menu 2.7.1. Connection Settings LTE connection settings includes Roaming settings, Default connection settings and Power Scan Option. Figure 19: Connection Settings 2.7.1.1. Roaming setting If set Roam enable, the CPE can access to other PLMN network, else the CPE just can access the network PLMN same with the SIM card.
The CPE supports 8 APN configurations. At least one APN (TR-069) must be configured when the CPE/eNB connect to the Baicells CloudCore. In the window (Figure 42) you will select the APN number (1-8), enable it, enter an APN Name, select the type of IP addressing (IPv4, IPv6, or IPv4v6), identify if it is the default gateway, and choose which type of protocol will be supported on it.
Figure 23: PIN Management 2.7.4. Cell selection The Cell selection determines which frequencies the CPE’s routine scan of available frequencies will cover. Scanning is a process of tuning to a specific frequency and measuring the simplest signal quality [e.g., Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI)]. As part of the cell selection and re-selection process, the CPE performs the scan first and then selects a small number of candidate cells to go through the next step of measuring and evaluating signals to select the best eNB that can serve it.
Figure 27: PCI Only Lock 2.7.5. SIM Lock Settings This feature may be used to lock the SIM card to the operator's network (Figure 48). Each operator has a unique Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) number. Locking the SIM prohibits the users from accessing another operator's network.
2.8. Security Menu 2.8.1. IP Filtering When using a firewall server in the local network, invoke this setting to enable or disable the firewall for this CPE (Figure 50). Figure 30: Firewall Basic Settings When enable IP/Port Filtering, then the IP/Port Filter can be set. Figure 31: IP / Port Filtering Settings: (1) IP/Port Filtering Mode: Blacklist, White list...
