Interestingly, Telrad's own site calls the 8000 a "Category 4+" device, heh.

Nope, I'm not sure.

I was assuming based on the red highlights when you switch the "UE Category" 
option from Cat 4 to Cat 5 on the eNodB Capacity Estimator V2.1.

Hmm, you sure about that?  I'll have to dig up the specs for the 2 CPEs, but 
the vast vast vast majority of UL subframes hitting our eNBs are coming in 
modulated at MCS index 20, and the vast vast vast majority of CPEs on our 
network are 7000s.

Even without 64QAM, a category 5 UE should get to MCS 20.  The 7000 being a 
category 4 would only get up to MCS 16 on the UL.

It'd be nice to *see* the UL MCS, but in theory it should already go a little 
higher on the 8000.

8000 does higher UL MCS, but we are advised to not enable it at this point...

That’s interesting, Telrad has always told us that the 8000 is a higher powered 
CPE than the 7000.

Both are +23dbm tx power in LTE.
(7000 went to +27 with Wimax firmware, but that's neither here nor there).
8000 does higher UL MCS though.

I remember a long time ago (like > 2 years) hearing about CPE with bigger 
integrated panels.  I might have even seen a picture of a prototype.  Maybe 
it's all in my head.

I was under the assumption that the 8000 had a higher gain antenna, but I was 
wrong. According to specs both the 7000 and 8000 have a 15db antenna.
Telrad has said since the announcement of the 8000 that it is their high power 
CPE. I guess that they were referring to TX power, not gain.

Joking perhaps?  It doesn't have more antenna gain.  Or do you mean a different 
kind of gain?

The 8000 is their higher gain CPE (other than the connectorized 7000)

19dbi eh?  Does anyone happen to know if a higher gain CPE is on Telrad's

Baicells CPE does work with telrad with a telrad sim card. We have only tested 
one but it works pretty well.

We don't use breezeview for anything as it is noting but a
glorified Ihss import utility at this point.  SNMP is a requirement for us.  We
are looking for alternative CPE options that support SNMP.  Has anyone found one
other then the 7000
series?

We have spent months trying to get StarACS to get decent
KPI's from the CPE7000's. Now we are being told that the ACS function is moving
to BreezeView, but KPI's are several months
away.

So, now we are changing the CPE7000 to both TR069 and SNMP.
Using the ACS to do bulk software upgrades, parameter changes, etc. And using
SNMP to get the KPI's we want. This has been much more reliable and we are
finally getting the info we
need.

Therefore, TELRAD please add SNMP to the CPE8000, and give us
the option of TR069 and/or SNMP just like the
CPE7000.

There is no roadmap to add SNMP support to the 8000 that I
have heard,
just
TR-069
