Hi Stefan, So I did a deep dive to figure out the source of your confusion re thinking QAM256 and MU-MIMO would require new hardware.
On FEB 4 you asked your Telrad rep this question: " I've done some additional googling and found a very interesting presentation of Patrick Leary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLHW9Bk7_nA There is a roadmap with features like MU-MIMO and 256 QAM in 2015. Buying a CMP1000, CPE 7000, CPE 7001 now this features come to this Hardware or will there be newer Hardware Releases in the future to implement this? Will there be additional license costs or will this upgrades be included?" The sales person responding to you looked at the total list, which included both CPE and base stations and then gave the answer he did. Even though your English is MUCH better than my German, neither of you are native English speakers, so that contributed to the confusion. He should have separated out the CPE answer from the base station answer. The CPE 7000 model -- a category 4 UE -- will not support those LTE Advanced features, not ours, not anyone's. Our COMPACT1000 eNodeB base station, however, will. It will accept these features and more. Do you understand now? Patrick Leary Director, Business Development, North America | Telrad Networks Ltd.
