Security

 

The basic security feature of the W2x terminals are the same as any GSM

 

phone, using a PIN code that comes with the subscription SIM card. The

 

PIN code is simply entered via the WUI. To simplify usage, the W2x

 

terminals have an auto PIN feature that requires the PIN code only to be

 

entered the first time the unit is used or upon changing the SIM card.

 

Additionally the W2x terminals provide security features that prevent

 

unauthorized use of the SIM card and the unit, which can be customized if

 

required.

8.1

Operator Lock

 

This feature controls the W2x terminals network access, based on whether

 

the SIM matches one or more of the following criteria:

 

• Mobile Country Code (MCC) and Mobile Network Code (MNC)

 

• Additional Mobile Country Code (MCC+) and Additional Mobile

 

Network Code (MNC+)

 

MCCs are defined in ITU E.212 (“Land Mobile Numbering Plan”) for use in

 

identifying mobile stations in wireless telephone networks, particularly GSM

 

and UMTS networks. A MCC is often used in combination with a Mobile

 

Network Code (MNC) in order to uniquely identify a network operator.

 

Both the MCC and MNC are part of the International Mobile Subscriber

 

Identity (IMSI) number, which uniquely identifies a particular subscriber,

 

and is stored on the SIM card.

 

The unit can be locked to one or two specific mobile network providers.

8.2

PIN Lock

 

This feature locks the SIM card to a unique unit by changing the PIN code

 

to a new randomly value. As a result, the SIM card cannot be used in

 

another terminal unless the PUK code is known.

8.3

Mechanical Anti-Theft Kit

 

A mechanical anti-theft kit is available as an accessory. The kit consists of

a wall bracket with an anti-theft detail and a special anti-theft key for removing a unit that is locked to the wall bracket.

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.
