Ericsson has launched its Capsule Site, an innovative radio base station designed for use in urban areas and to empower sustainable societies by enabling faster mobile broadband rollout.
The company is promoting the site designed by renowned Scandinavian architect Thomas Sandell as an "all-in-one" solution to challenges of finding a location for radio base sations in urban and suburban areas.
Ulf Ewaldsson, Vice President and Head of Product Area Radio Networks, Ericsson, said,"We strive to constantly redefine the telecommunications landscape with our innovative technology and design. With its small footprint and ability to blend into its surroundings, the solution reflects our commitment to the development of sustainable societies."
The Ericsson Capsule Site is a solution encapsulating all necessary equipment, thereby reducing installation time by up to 50 percent, and reducing costs by up to 30 percent. It is delivered in an innovative 'flat-pack' form, making transport significantly easier and can be assembled in less than one day. The site cover, made of composite, weighs only 800 kg.
It is equally adept at becoming a focal point in a town square, or blending into the background at the side of a road, for example. Designed to complement any urban or suburban space – it will contribute with the fill-in coverage that is increasingly needed as demand for mobile broadband takes off.
