1. Overview
1.1 Introduction
ZTE is dedicated to providing comprehensive network solutions and delivering the

future-oriented quality network for the operators, developed the ground breaking
Software Defined Radio (SDR) unified platform with the essential feature to support
multi-mode and multi-band radio access.
Based on this innovative SDR platform, ZTE promotes a series of eNodeB to satisfy
different scenario requirements, including Indoor Macro, Outdoor Macro, Distributed,
Outdoor Micro, and Pico/Femto.
With the developing of mobile communication, high quality networks have to be built up
to meet growing requirements. Hot spot, indoor and rural area coverage should be taken
into consideration. At the same time, telecom operators are facing challenges in
equipment room, engineering and noise pollution. As a compact Micro eNodeB, ZXSDR
BS8922 is hence designed to meet these requirements.
Integrated design and Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier (MCPA) make it small volume, high
density, high capacity and low power consumption for LTE and LTE-A. It can be used for
both indoor and outdoor applications with IP65 protection. The unit can be mounted on
walls, poles or masts.
