1. Introduction 1.1. Description The Baicells Atom OD0406 Outdoor Low-Gain and Outdoor High-Gain User Equipment (UE) is part of a broadband wireless access system that integrates with Long-Term Evolution (LTE) backhaul networks to provide subscribers with Internet access. The UE, also referred to as Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), communicates through a wireless connection to the operator’s eNodeB’s (eNB) at cell sites located in the region. The eNBs communicate with the backhaul network (Figure 1).
a) NAT Mode, the ODU work as a LTE and Ethernet Gateway, it converts LTE network data to local Ethernet data. b) Tunnel Mode, the ODU can build a L2 or L3 VPN tunnel with a designated VPN server. c) Bridge Mode, the ODU can bridge it LTE IP address to LAN port devices, when configured as the bridge, the CPE’s LAN port will work as trunk mode, so it can’t assign IP address to any no-trunk devices (like PC), so you have to Manual Configure the PC’s IP address in the same broadcast domain (e.g. 192.168.150.
