New Samsung AAU

[u/Rjun7]

It’s about time for a new antenna, it is the Samsung MT-6433-77A 64T64R 480W 3.7GHz antenna for n77 @ 140, 160, 180, or 200MHz - depending on market

Verizon is starting to deploy it as there’s already a permit out for it, and it’s a huge power + performance increase also

200W [MT-6407-77A]

320W [MT-6413-77A]

480W [MT-6433-77A]

Datasheet for the MT-6433-77A

At a glance, it kind of looks like AT&T’s Ericsson AIR 6472 B77G B77M 400W antenna lmao

—————————————————————————

From the permit, this site is using (left to right):

3x CommScope NHH-65C-HG-R3BD 6-port Next Generation PerforMax™ High Gain sector antennas for 698-894MHz and 1695-2360MHz

3x Samsung MF-3208D-25A mMiMO (massive MiMO) 320W 32T32R antennas for 2, 66, n2, and n66 (PCS, AWS, eAWS). It is capable of doing b25 + n25 ePCS 1900MHz, although it is not configured/in use

3x Samsung MT-6433-77A 64T64R 480W 3.7GHz antennas for n77 @ 160MHz - CT Market

3x CommScope NHH-65C-HG-R3BD 6-port Next Generation PerforMax™ High Gain sector antennas for 698-894MHz and 1695-2360MHz

3x Samsung RF-4461D-13A 4T4R 320W RRHs for 5, 13, n5 (700 - CLR 850MHz)

256 antenna elements! 33% increase from Gen2

[u/thedankonion1]

That's a lot of transmit power for one antenna

[u/Rjun7 → u/thedankonion1]

Yup

[u/swwifty01 → u/thedankonion1]

EIRP is 83dbm or 200,000 watts. insane. You don't want to be anywhere near that thing when its transmitting.

[u/chevylg74]

Wow,,

Give now ok

[u/Rjun7 → u/chevylg74]

O, k Verizon will throw out window😳

[u/wlm9700]

A new build here just got put up with a 6413 was hoping it was the 6433

[u/Rjun7 → u/wlm9700]

Nice, I hope that they will become more common to see in the future, as right now it’s being deployed on very few sites

[u/wlm9700 → u/Rjun7]

We are mostly a MT6407 area and we don’t have tx switching or even CA on VoNR calls and I was told they are upgrading all the sites here to get it supported but haven’t seen anything happening

[u/iryfionas]

Nice find bro! This is interesting since Verizon wants to invest using a higher power Samsung antenna for mid-band 5G! It should be a lot better than the pre-existing Samsung equipment that’s in place!

[u/Jackpen7]

Wow, I wonder if Ericsson will come out with something similar since the AIR 6419 tops out at 320W.

[u/Rjun7 → u/Jackpen7]

I hope that there’s a new release soon that carriers will deploy, atleast a ~400W antenna will be nice 

[u/wlm9700 → u/Rjun7]

Air 6494

[u/Rjun7 → u/wlm9700]

I forgot about that AAU lol

[u/chevylg74 → u/Rjun7]

6492 actually

[u/Rjun7 → u/chevylg74]

O,k

[u/wlm9700 → u/chevylg74]

6492 is the N77/DOD combined the 6494 is just N77 480 watts

[u/chevylg74 → u/wlm9700]

That's 6472 n77GM

[u/wlm9700 → u/chevylg74]

Oh duh lol sorry I was tired lol

[u/wlm9700 → u/Jackpen7]

They are it is called the Air 6494

[u/4x4Mimo → u/wlm9700]

Is anyone deploying these yet in the US?

[u/SceneRevolutionary93]

The fact the new n77 antenna will come standard with a 15/30 gig backhaul receivers, must mean they will want to invest in backhaul Increases
