W2x Series Overview

1.1 Introduction

The Ericsson Fixed Wireless Terminal (FWT) W2x product series is the base for Ericsson WCDMA/HSDPA FWTs. The W2x product series is based on a platform concept aiming at providing a set of differentiated terminals from well-defined technical platforms.

The W2x product series consist of different types of terminals. Currently there are three terminals in the W2x product series:

Ericsson W20 – Data Terminal

-W20a for 850/1900 MHz frequency bands

-W20e for 2100 MHz frequency bands

Ericsson W21 – Data Terminal

Ericsson W25 – Data and Voice Terminal

With WCDMA/HSDPA WAN radio access capability the W2x products are well suited to provide broadband data access with data speeds similar to fixed line DSL services.

1.2 Ericsson W20/W21 - Data Terminal

The Ericsson W20/W21 provide data capabilities such as data access (e.g. Internet) in the respect that it allows multiple computers to be connected to the terminal using Ethernet or wireless LAN (WLAN).

W2x Series specifications

The Ericsson W2x Series is a robust line of advanced wireless communication solutions designed to meet the growing demands of both urban and rural environments. With a primary focus on enhancing mobile broadband experiences, the W2x Series represents a significant leap in technological capabilities, featuring both hardware and software innovations that drive connectivity forward.

One of the core features of the W2x Series is its support for next-generation mobile standards, including 5G New Radio (NR). This enables operators to deliver higher data speeds, reduced latency, and increased capacity to end-users. Leveraging Massive MIMO technology, the W2x Series utilizes multiple antennas at the base station, allowing for simultaneous connections and more efficient spectrum usage. This results in improved coverage and enhanced overall network performance.

The W2x Series also integrates advanced beamforming techniques. These techniques focus the signal in specific directions, which not only improves signal strength but also minimizes interference. This capability is particularly beneficial in dense urban environments where signal degradation can be a challenge.

In addition to its impressive 5G capabilities, the W2x Series is designed for seamless integration with existing 4G networks, ensuring operators can provide a smooth transition for users without significant disruption. This backward compatibility is crucial as it allows for a gradual rollout of new services while maintaining support for legacy devices.

Power efficiency has been a key consideration in the design of the W2x Series. The advanced hardware is engineered to consume less energy, thereby reducing operational costs and contributing to sustainability goals. Additionally, the series supports Intelligent Energy Management features that optimize power consumption based on real-time usage patterns.

Another distinguishing characteristic of the W2x Series is its modular architecture. This flexibility allows network operators to customize their deployments according to specific regional needs and operational requirements. Whether installed in remote locations or urban centers, the W2x Series can adapt to various physical and environmental constraints.

Security is also paramount in today's connected world. The W2x Series incorporates robust security frameworks that safeguard user data and ensure compliance with international standards. This focus on security fosters trust among users as well as network operators.

In summary, the Ericsson W2x Series stands out with its cutting-edge features, including 5G NR support, Massive MIMO, beamforming technology, and modular design. Combined with energy efficiency and enhanced security, this series is well-equipped to support future wireless demands, making it a vital asset for network operators looking to enhance service offerings and user experiences.
