Introduction
This document highlights new features and significant updates in cnMaestro Cloud.
Citizen Broadband Radio Service (CBRS)
Citizen Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) subscription is for CBRS-compliant 3.6 GHz band (3550 MHz to 3700 MHz) devices. Currently, it is supported for PMP/PTP 450 devices running software version 16.2.
Please refer to CBRS Procedures Guide to migrate an existing PMP/PTP sector to CBRS. The complete procedure lists all required steps to convert to an FCC CFR 47 Part 96 sector, assuming the sector is currently operational under Part 90. The same procedure can be used for a new installation by skipping a few migration steps.
|
Note |
|
Currently, cnMaestro supports running the CBRS procedure in parallel on up to 4, 000 CBRS-compliant devices within the 3.6 GHz band (3550 MHz to 3700 MHz) using the CBRS Management Tool. |
