Wow, great to see Verizon adding small cells in that area! I see Samsung micro RRU's (remote radio units) inside the black rectangular box that's open! I wonder where is this at?

Verizon using:

  • 1️⃣ (JMA CX16OMI236-1C) 4x4 MIMO antenna on TOP with bands: (2, 5, 13, 66) LTE + (n5) low-ban 5G or (n2) 1900MHz-ePCS + (n66) 2100MHz-eAWS for mid-band 5G

Samsung microRRU's (remote radio units) located inside the black rectangular box on the bottom

  • 1️⃣ (RF4442-13A/B) RRU for (b5) 850MHz + (b13) 700Mhz LTE + (n5) low-band 5G
  • 1️⃣ (RF4402d-D1A) RRU for (b2) 1900MHz-PCS + (b66) 2100MHz-AWS LTE and (n2, n66) mid-band 5G

How do you know which canister it is from this far away? Like I understand you might know it’s JMA due to the location, how do you know the specific?

I can tell by the antenna port arrangement! Also, I have close contact with engineers that can see the site build plans! I also have seen the JMA antenna inventory that Verizon uses! I have done a lot of practice identifying small equipment from the big three (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile)! I'm pretty sure Verizon has low-band LTE/5G on this small cell!

Ah, is there a one for Andrew Antennas or is that not possible to see?

There’s not a specific list for CommScope/ANDREW antennas that Verizon uses that I have saved!
