Nokia Flexi Lite BTS 1900

The all-in-one base station optimized to

enhance WCDMA network capacity and
coverage
The Nokia Flexi Lite BTS 1900 is a compact all-in-
one base station for WCDMA network capacity and
coverage enhancements in the 1900MHz (PCS)
band. The Flexi Lite BTS is based on Nokias award-
winning Flexi Multiradio Base Station platform and
so incorporates a wealth of experience and proven
capabilities derived from worldwide field operations.

One solution - many applications

Suitable for deployment in both outdoor and indoor
environments, the Flexi Lite BTS is ideal for adding more cells
for capacity in urban and dense urban areas if the addition of
new macro cell carriers is not possible. The BTS can be used for
both micro cell and pico cell applications making it an ideal
solution to cover traffic hotspots or to fill network coverage
holes, as well as being suitable for improving coverage inside
buildings, for example airports and railway stations.
The benefits of Small Cell deployments
Deploying small cell base stations is an extremely cost-effective
way to boost network capacity and coverage in metropolitan
traffic hotspots as well as in residential and commercial areas
where most mobile broadband usage occurs. The Flexi Lite BTS
provides an efficient means to meet market growth while
simultaneously offloading voice and data traffic from the
operators macro network.
Visually discrete
The Flexi Lites compact form factor makes it easy to conceal in
dense urban environments where aesthetics are very
important. In situations where appearances are critical, the Flexi
Lite can easily be camouflaged to blend with its surroundings.
Opportunities for cost savings
The Flexi Lite BTS opens up new site location and deployment
possibilities thanks to its compact size and light weight, which
makes deployment by a single installer very easy and rapid. Its
silent active-cooling reduces installation clearances, meaning
that the Flexi Lite BTS can be installed in locations not much
larger than the BTS itself e.g. in already crowded sites, utility
rooms, inside cabinets etc. This compact BTS can be also
installed back to back for compact multiband and multiradio
sites. This brings opportunities for further savings relating to
site acquisition and rental costs by allowing operators to extend
coverage to areas that were previously either inaccessible or
not commercially viable.
The base station also has green credentials with a low power
consumption helping to reduce operating costs even more.
Creating more value with customized services
The Flexi Lite BTS is supported by Nokias renowned global
services. Tailored services, a wealth of resources and efficient
processes all combine to help networks perform better. We use
our experience of successful deployments in multi-vendor
environments, greenfield and swap projects to improve the
experience of operators and their subscribers alike.
In line with all Nokia network products, the Flexi Lite BTS is
managed by Nokias NetAct OSS platform, which allows
operators to manage their entire network operations from a
single location.
