Technical FAQs 4

What are 5G infrastructure power supply considerations?

While the overall power draw is often lower, 5G equipment has narrower tolerances. It often needs multiple, precise voltages to operate correctly, with scarce leeway on either side. In the following section, we discuss 5G infrastructure power supply considerations in more detail. 5G delivers coverage to an area in a different way from 4G.

Do 5G equipment power supply units need to be compact?

Small cells will need to be able to fit in compact environments, such as traffic lights, utility poles, and rooftops. So power supply units will need to be compact, able to fit comfortably alongside the equipment they power. There are also considerable heat dissipation issues that 5G equipment power supply units will need to accommodate.

What is the coverage area of 5G high-frequency base stations?

The radius of coverage area of 5G high-frequency base stations will be less than one-tenth of that of 4G base stations, and the coverage area of 5G high-frequency base stations will be less than one percent of that of 4G base stations. The deployment of macro base stations is difficult and the site resources are not easy to obtain.

What is a 5G power supply?

The equipment ensures that devices across the infrastructure stack receive reliable power from the mains network, wherever they happen to reside. With it, individuals and organizations can continue to render services to both themselves and their customers. Overviews The 5G network architecture uses multiple types of power supplies.
