BaiCells BRU3510 Nova-243 Outdoor LTE TDD Base Station, Band 41, 2×10 W

The BaiCells BRU3510 Nova-243 is an outdoor LTE TDD eNodeB designed to provide radio access for wireless broadband networks. It is intended for network operators and service providers deploying LTE infrastructure for fixed wireless access and other supported LTE services.

The BRU3510 is the 2.5 GHz Band 41 variant of the Nova-243 platform. Its radio configuration includes two 10 W transmit channels and 2×2 MIMO, making it suitable for deployments requiring an outdoor LTE access point connected to a compatible mobile core network.

LTE Performance and Connectivity

The BRU3510 supports 3GPP LTE Release 9 and configurable TDD operation. Its documented channel bandwidth options are 5, 10, 15, and 20 MHz.

For 20 MHz TDD operation, the manufacturer datasheet lists peak rates of up to 110 Mbps downstream and 14 Mbps upstream under the specified subframe configuration. Actual performance depends on radio conditions, network configuration, available spectrum, connected users, and backhaul capacity.

The base station supports up to 96 concurrent users in TDD mode according to the manufacturer documentation.

Radio Interfaces and Hardware Design

The Nova-243 is designed for outdoor installation and uses an external high-gain antenna configuration. Its 2×2 MIMO radio architecture supports LTE communications through two radio paths.

A Gigabit Ethernet interface provides wired backhaul connectivity. The installation documentation also describes a separate Ethernet interface for debugging and Type N RF antenna connections. Confirm the exact hardware revision and physical interface layout before ordering accessories or planning installation.

Management and Network Operations

The platform supports TR-069 network management, along with documented maintenance functions such as performance statistics, fault management, alarm reporting, connectivity diagnostics, logging, and local or remote software upgrades.

Self-organizing network capabilities include automatic setup and Automatic Neighbor Relation (ANR). These features can help operators manage LTE network deployment and ongoing operations.

Outdoor Deployment

The Nova-243 datasheet specifies an IP66 ingress protection rating and an operating temperature range of -40°C to 55°C. The manufacturer also documents pole or wall installation options.

The base station requires a compatible 48 V DC power arrangement, an appropriate external antenna, suitable mounting hardware, and a compatible LTE network infrastructure. Verify the included accessories and power supply configuration for the specific unit being purchased.

Business Applications

The BaiCells BRU3510 is intended for operators and enterprises building or maintaining compatible LTE TDD infrastructure. Before deployment, confirm local spectrum authorization, Band 41 compatibility, core network requirements, antenna selection, and regional regulatory requirements.
