====== Wirnet™ iBTS hardware architecture ======

===== Wirnet iBTS products =====

Wirnet iBTS architecture is completely modular and upgradable to offer multiple configurations to cover different countries and areas around the world.

**This modularity brings the possibility to choose:** 

  * The backhaul network: Ethernet or GPRS/EDGE/HSPA/CDMA/LTE for different countries.
  * The Frequency of the unlicensed band (ISM) where to operate the LoRa LPWAN: 868MHz, 915MHz an 923MHz.
  * The number of channels to operate the LoRa LPWAN: 16 to 64. 
  * The antenna interface: single (omnidirectional), dual (space diversity or dual polarization) or tri (sectorization). 


**Three different types of modules are integrated in the Wirnet iBTS:** 

{{ :images:ibts_compact.jpg?nolink&300| Wirnet iBTS compact}}
  * CPU Module which includes the main following features: 
    * Power management of the Wirnet iBTS.
    * CPU.
    * Memories.
    * GNSS receiver (GPS). \\

//This module is mandatory.//

  * WAN Module which provides the backhaul functionality:  
    * Backup battery.
    * 4G modem available in 3 versions depending on the geographical area.
    * Dual WAN: Variant with 2 MC7304 modem.

//This module is optional.//

  * LoRa module, which can be prepared in 3 versions:   
    * 868 MHz: 863-873 MHz band. 
    * 915 MHz: 902-928 MHz band. 
    * 923 MHz: 915-928 MHz band. 
 
//A Wirnet iBTS integrates at least one LoRa module. Up to four LoRa module can be embedded.//
