Installed on a live network, the device halves the equipment needed at mobile sites, reduces power use, and improves indoor coverage and high-traffic area performance.
The unit merges the 2.6GHz and 3.5GHz bands, using 384 antenna units - double the capacity of previous setups. Power consumption drops by 35%, with additional savings of 15% during off-peak hours due to automatic sleep features. Unlike older installations requiring separate setups for each band, the MetaAAU reduces equipment size by 60% and cuts rollout time in half.
