Distributed Node B
Distributed Node B is a next generation Node B technology sold by Huawei for the purpose of enabling telecommunications operators to deploy 3G networks faster and at lower cost. The technology is small, light weight, and features a baseband unit (BBU) and radio remote unit (RRU) that is easy to install, which can reduce costs for operators. Since 2006, Huawei has deployed Distributed Node B to upgrade operators' network infrastructure to 3G in Tajikistan, with mobile operator VimpelCom, the United Arab Emirates with Etisalat, Singapore for StarHub Japan with EMOBILE, and in Sri Lanka for Bharti Airtel Lanka. In 2011, Distributed Node B technology was used in the launch of an LTE TDD network technology in Saudi Arabia by Huawei and Saudi Telecom Company.
