Key Features & Benefits
Redefining Fixed Wireless Access
The 8232 supports 5G Sub-6 GHz and 4G/LTE with dual connectivity modes, standalone access (SA) fully benefiting from all the 5G capabilities, and non-standalone access (NSA) attached to a 4G network up to a gigabit speed to ensure a quick and flexible deployment to any 5G NR or LTE network.
Rugged Weatherproof Design
The 8232 is built to last, fully ruggedized with industrial-grade components. Unique to BEC devices are GORE® vents for pressure equalization, humidity, and airflow, thus improving performance reliability and longevity. The enclosure is IP68/UL 50E rated for protection against dirt, water ingress, and operation in extreme temperatures. Furthermore, enhanced safety lighting/ESD protection ensures years of dependable operation.
Advanced MIMO Antenna Technology
Operators need antenna technology to meet capacity and throughput demands in challenging deployment scenarios such as Fixed Wireless Access (FWA). The high-gain embedded 4X4 MIMO directional antenna ensures increased capacity, maximum bandwidth, and extended coverage.
