3G/4G/LTE Cellular Solution
INTRODUCTION
Spotty cellular coverage, poor voice quality, dropped calls, and dead zones continue to plague employees and visitors in middleprise buildings. Cel-Fi QUATRA 2000 is a scalable cellular solution that is both a costefficient and easyto-deploy solution, delivering high-quality signal in venues up to 200,000 square feet. It is a hybrid solution that combines the best of active DAS and Smart Booster technologies.
The Cel-Fi QUATRA 2000 operates by capturing the signal from the outside macro networks, boosting them, and relaying their signals indoor from the coverage units. Cel-FI QUATRA 2000 is carrier approved and guaranteed network safe.
Unlike older analog boosters and passive DAS technology, Cel-Fi QUATRA 2000 delivers a cellular signal that is up to 1000x stronger, utilising CAT 5e cabling for RF and Power over Ethernet, with no signal attenuation right to the perimeter of the building. QUATRA can be installed in just days (compared to months typical of other solutions), and at a price point that meets the middleprise budget.

CONFIGURATION
Off Air Configuration
Cel-Fi QUATRA 2000 can be installed off-air, using an omni donor antenna to provide high-quality in‑building wireless connectivity. Cel-Fi QUATRA
can be deployed by installers or IT personnel with Cat5e skills (no RF engineering skills needed).
Cel-Fi QUATRA is a scalable solution that utilises one or multiple NUs, depending on the environment & size of the space, with up to 4 distributed CUs connected to each NU.
THE BUILDING BLOCKS
Cel-Fi WAVE Portal
• Cel-Fi device & asset management
• Data modeling and reporting
• Mobile and computer applications
• Globally trusted carrier grade security
• Users can access the Cel-Fi WAVE portal through the dashboard interface, or integrate it via APIs.
Network Safe
Self-organising edge intelligence ensures that Cel-Fi QUATRA does not interfere with other indoor wireless products such as Wi‑Fi routers, Small Cells, and Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS). High speed Automatic Gain Control ensures that Cel‑Fi QUATRA is unconditionally network safe, and enables more simultaneous calls and higher data speeds.
IntelliBoost™ Chipset
The Nextivity IntelliBoost™ baseband processor is the first six-core processor designed specifically to optimise the indoor transmission and reception of 3G and 4G/LTE wireless signals. With advanced filtering, equalisation and echocancellation techniques, Nextivity has developed an architecture which delivers unprecedented data rates and pervasive 3G and 4G/LTE connectivity. The IntelliBoost processor ensures that Cel-Fi products never negatively impact the macro network while providing maximum coverage.
SOLUTION COMPONENTS
Cel-Fi QUATRA Range Extender (QRE)
Cel-Fi QUATRA Range Extender is a Power over Ethernet(PoE) device that extends the maximum distance between the NU and the CU.
• Allows NU-to-CU cable lengths of up to 650 ft (200 m)
• Power over Ethernet (no separate power supply or PoE injector needed)
Cel-Fi Indoor Omni Antenna
The Indoor Omni Antenna receives and transmits signal in a 360° pattern and are compatible with the 698 – 2700 MHz frequency ranges that include 3G and 4G signals. They come with an SMA Male Connector.
• 3G/4G/LTE wideband cellular antenna
• SMA Male connector
• Omni-directional
Cel-Fi Wideband Omni Donor Antenna
The Cel-Fi Wideband Omni Donor Antenna is the ideal donor signal source for the QUATRA 2000. It has N-type Female connectors. The Cel-Fi Omni Donor Antenna is the only authorised indoor/outdoor antenna for Cel-Fi QUATRA 2000 Off-Air solutions only.
• Wideband omni antenna
• Dual feeds (MIMO)
• Includes pole mounting options
• Designed for QUATRA 2000 off-air installation
