Wirnet™ iBTS casing and accessories

2 types of casing are available:

• The compact casing: this casing can embed 1 LoRa module.
• The full casing: this casing can embed up to 4 LoRa modules.

This polycarbonate casing can embed 3 modules:

• A CPU module (mandatory)
• A WAN module (optional)
• A LoRa module (mandatory).

It also embedded an internal LTE/GNSS combo antenna.

More information on the compact casing is available in the Installation and maintenance manual.

This aluminium casing can embed up to 6 modules:

• A CPU module (mandatory)
• A WAN Module (optional)
• At least one LoRa module (mandatory).
• Additional LoRa modules (optional)

LTE and GNSS antennas are externals. N-SMB adapters are used as RF interfaces for the antennas.

In the particular case of “4 LoRa modules” configuration, a specific “front-end” board and mechanical lid are used to combine the four “LoRa modules” together.
In its maximum size configuration, the Wirnet iBTS can then integrate six modules: one “CPU module”, one “WAN module” and four “LoRa modules”.

More information are available in the Installation and maintenance manual.

Information are available in the Installation and maintenance manual.

As part of the Wirnet iBTS modularity, many accessories can be provided for configuration purpose:

• GNSS antennas
• LTE antennas
• LoRa antennas
• RF cavity filters: The purpose of cavity filters is to avoid saturation and desensitization of the LoRa receiver due to co-located base stations. In some countries the use of a cavity filter is mandatory.
• PoE injectors
• Surge protections: In a harsh environment, additional protections must be used to improve lightning immunity. Find more information in the recommendations chapter.
