AW3874-E-F

The AW3874-E-F is an 8-port, dual-band sector panel with four ports operating over 896-960 MHz and four ports operating over 3300-3800 MHz. The 65° panel has a 1 meter length and provides a high gain of 12.4 and 18dBi for 900 MHz and 3.5 GHz spectrums, respectively, and is designed for macro distance coverage. The higher gain of the 3.5 GHz band allows it to overcome the additional path loss at higher frequencies and equalize received signal strength for both bands. The antenna delivers 4×4 MIMO support for maximum signal strength and provides sectoral coverage for 900 MHz Anterix , 3.5 GHz CBRS and C-band A Block (LTE Bands 8, 42,43,48, and 52 and 5G NR Band n78).

The antenna features enclosed remote electrical tilt (eRET) which enables the elevation beam’s tilt angle to be adjusted via a field-replaceable motor located inside the antenna housing. This motor is controlled with an AISG 2.0 interface. Electrical tilt adjustment provides network optimisation without the need to mechanically adjust the mounting brackets. Accurate adjustments of the downtilt focuses the signal where it is needed and enables optimization of throughput and coverage.
