C-RAN drivers
Interest coming from network operational teams : site engineering
solution due to increased network rollout difficulties
Antenna site simplification: footprint reduction, renting cost
reduction, reduced time to install
limited space
Find new locations to replace sites that have to be switched off or
solution for failed negotiation sites
Reducing building cost (crane, metallic structure, etc.) and renting cost
Reducing the electrical consumption, maintenance on site
Less or not any cooling cabinets and shelters
Decrease antenna site time to build and time to repair
Tower sharing
Solar powered antenna site
Simplification of operational installation procedures at antenna sites
C-RAN drivers
Radio performances, very low latency between BBUs enables:
The same BBU shared between small cells and parent macrocell provides even higher
gains than in a macrocell scenario.

Solution 1
SFP Single Wavelength Single Fiber (SWSF):
same CWDM wavelength used for transmission
and reception on the same fiber thanks to an
optical splitter.
Drawback: performances suffer in the presence of
optical reflections (depending on connectors type)
Products available with bit rates up to 2.5Gbit/s
14
Solution 2
SFP SWSF with Reflection Immune Operation (RIO):
this SWSF transceiver can recognize reflected signals
thus reduces signal reflection impact.
Products available with bit rates up to 1.25Gbit/s
15
Solution 3
SFP Cooled Single Channel (CSC): each 20nm
CWDM channel is divided in two sub-channels
that are used for transmission and reception,
respectively.
Products available with bit rates at 2.5Gbit/s,
5Gbit/s and 10Gbit/s in roadmap.

Alternatively : Pure DWDM network but need for low cost transmitters
Colorless Technologies:
Several commercial systems available at 1.25Gbit/s
Tunable lasers : 10Gbit/s transmissions achieved but control and management of the
wavelength can be costly and complex (OutdoorTemperature variation)

WDM P2P
Bitrates :
symmetrical for upstream and downstream
all CPRI bitrates under discussion with mainly CPRI3(2.4G), CPRI5 (5G),
CPRI6 (6G), CPRI8 (10G)
Latency
500s from SNI to UNI, symmetrical
Synchronization:
Radio Frequency deviation limited to 2ppb counting only the CPRI link
