The Azcom AZ2N series is powerful but compact IP67 compliant 5G/4G Network-in-a-Box (NIB) solution which can be used for setting up a completely independent network to provide data, voice and video connectivity to a large group of users. The integrated RAN, Core Network and IMS provide local connectivity without any existing communication infrastructure, and is ideally suited for a Rapidly Deployable Network (RDN) in emergency, natural disaster and defense applications. It can also be used for setting up a cost effective network in rural and remote areas. The optional backhaul connectivity via fiber, microwave links or satellite can be used for integrating into an existing network infrastructures.
5G/4G SUPPORT
The system is essentially derived from Azcom AZ2M series Dual Mode-5G/4G-Small Cell. An additional powerful plugin board is used for hosting the core network and IMS software. The system has spare processing power which can further be used for running any user specific applications especially in defense and public safety. It also provides support for 3GPP Split option 8 and O-RAN split option 7.2x. This permits use of external radio to support external RRH/O-RU to extend power and more bands support.
PnP FOR RAPID DEPLOYMENT
The Azcom NIB solution is a plug-n-play device that allows for easy and efficient operation, administration and maintenance through the CLI and SNMP protocols. The product has a comprehensive suite of Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance and Security (FCAPS) functions for system management, network and performance monitoring and management. With a few minutes of boot time before offering services, the product facilitates rapid service availability that is especially important in case of emergencies and catastrophes.
COMPACT LOW-COST FOOTPRINT
An integrated DFE with efficient DPD and CFR and the use of latest generation power amplifiers offers reduced operating power in smaller form factor. The integrated GbE backhaul facilitates deployment in small spaces while minimizing installation and commissioning costs. The unit has fixtures that allow simple wall or pole mounting. This NIB product is very compact and can be carried in a backpack for private and public safety applications. The form factor also enables quick installation and deployment on transport vehicles.
PRODUCT FEATURES
APPLICATIONS
The Azcom NIB series product is suitable for a variety of applications including the Rapidly Deployable Network (RDN) setup in defense, public safety, maritime and industrial (e.g. mining, energy) applications. Private enterprises can also leverage it to provide voice, video and Push-To-Talk (PTT) services, in addition to workforce management. This product can be effectively used to provide connectivity to remote devices employed in smart agriculture. These devices can thus be remotely monitored and key parameters such as soil, moisture, temperature and water levels autonomously adjusted to significantly improve crop yield. Mining operations require management of autonomous vehicles without drivers that are used to carry payload from the mine to the collection point. Management includes truck sensor data, critical videos, security and safety of equipment along with multi-media services for management personnel.
The NIB product is end-to-end tested for interoperability with a variety of end user devices like smartphone, tablets, dongles, CPEs routers. It offers an extremely compelling total cost of ownership (TCO) while significantly optimizing time-to-market (TTM).
