Kathrein Street Connect MOBILE

COMMUNICATION

Revolutionising
Data Traffic in Cities
Kathrein Street Connect I Introduction

With the growing demand for high speed data traffic, macro
mobile communication cells are at the edge of their capacity
limits thus, the additional use of micro cells becomes
indispensable. But there is one big challenge: How to obtain
sites in open, sensitive areas? To overcome this, Kathrein intro-
duces an innovative solution for mobile communication in
city centres: An in-ground antenna with the appearance of a
manhole cover blending seamlessly into the existing infrastructure.
In order to enhance mobile capacity at hotspots with high data
traffic, Kathrein has developed this “Kathrein Street Connect”
antenna in collaboration with Swisscom, Switzerland’s leading
telecom provider. The antenna is embedded into the ground in
the immediate vicinity of an according base station by way of
core drilling. The base station can for example be incorporated
into existing cable manholes of the landline infrastructure.
