1.1 Product Positioning

The ZXSDR R8892E is the first ultra-wideband distributed Remote Radio Unit (RRU
)among ZTE's Uni-RAN SDR products. Designed based on the new unified RRU platform,
the ZXSDR R8892E has two channels for data receiving and two channels for data
sending, and supports the GSM, UMTS, and LTE. In addition, it is characterized by small
volume and light weight.
Product Overview
For the ZXSDR R8892E overview, see Figure 1-1.
Figure 1-1 Product Overview

ZXSDR R8892E M1821 Product Description
Location in the Radio Network

Together with the BBU, the ZXSDR R8892E constructs a complete BTS/Node B/eNodeB
thatimplements radio transmission within its coverage areas, controls radio channels, and
communicates with the BSC/RNC/EPC.
For the ZXSDR R8892E location in the radio network, see Figure 1-2. The RRUs in orange
are ZXSDR R8892E.
Figure 1-2 ZXSDR R8892E Location in the Radio Network
Installation Scenarios

Chapter 1 Product Positioning and Features
l On one pole
You can install one or twoZXSDR R8892E RRUs on one pole in expansible mode,
one or two ZXSDR R8892Es on one pole in non-expansible mode, or three ZXSDR
R8892Es on one pole on one side.
Description
The ZXSDR R8892E supports the LTE/GSM/UMTS formats.
The ZXSDR R8892E can be used in a single cell together with a baseband unit (ZXSDR
B8200). Three ZXSDR R8892E devices form a three-sector base station.
Note:
For related ZXSDR B8200 information, refer to the ZXSDR B8200 Indoor Baseband Pool
Hardware Description manual.
1.2 Product Features

The ZXSDR R8892E has the following features:
l Ultra-wideband design, integrated frequency resources, and reduced number of
modules
The ZXSDR R8892E is designed based on the ultra-wideband technology. The
two power amplifiers simultaneously support 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz, and the
total duplex operating band is 365 MHz. A single ZXSDR R8892E can satisfy the
dual-frequency configuration requirements when both the 1800 MHz network and the
2100 MHz network are simultaneously upgraded.
l Multi-mode, satisfying various network requirements
The ZXSDR R8892E supports the 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz bands. For the 1800 MHz
band, GSM mode, LTE mode, or GSM/LTE mode can be configured. For the 2100
MHz, UMTS mode, LTE mode, or UMTS/LTE mode can be configured. It satisfies the
requirements for multi-mode network construction and further network upgrade.
l High cabinet-top power, dynamic power sharing, and flexible configurations, improving
the network service quality
The ZXSDR R8892E provides a cabinet-top output power of 100 W. The cabinet-top
power can be allocated on the 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz bands in accordance with
the service busy-idle condition, network coverage requirement, and actual operator
policies.
