But I will say the Mimo antenna takes up so little space. They should be able to put that antenna on everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That unit weighs far more than an 8t8r antenna and radio setup FYI. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk I'm familiar . It should weight about the same as the RRU and antenna together. Well thats what Johnny Saw would say in conferences.

Speeds so far are around the same as with 8x8 antennas. Device Im using is Moto X2 force if that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if and how they will shuffle anything to accommodate New Radio, like the Magic Box or UE carriers. What is the available bandwidth Sprint leases on 2.5 in your daily travels? Thanks for what you have put together; these are great pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
