Quanta XQ3 / BU10 5G ORAN Small Cell

All-in-one Small Cell (CU+DU+RU) — 5G NR Sub-6 SA Mode, 4T4R 4×4 MIMO, O1 interface, Fan-less

Overview

XQ3 (internal product code BU10) is a Quanta 5G ORAN All-in-One Small Cell base station that integrates the Centralized Unit (CU), Distributed Unit (DU) and Radio Unit (RU) into a single chassis. It supports 5G NR Sub-6 SA Mode (Option 2) with 4T4R 4×4 MIMO, delivering up to 1.35 Gbps downlink (7D1S2U DL-MIMO 256QAM) and 482 Mbps uplink (DSUUU UL-MIMO 64QAM). It provides a 10GbE SFP+ and 2.5 Gbps Copper backhaul, supports PoE++ or 12V DC power, and uses a fan-less design for quiet, durable outdoor operation. Four software-switchable ~13 dBi high-gain SMA antenna ports enable flexible deployment for enterprise private networks, campuses and indoor/outdoor coverage. Management is delivered via the O1 M-plane interface (NETCONF/SFTP/SSH) integrated with OAM/EMS systems, and the platform has been validated through 7×24 stability testing in telecom labs (168 hours continuous, 3-mode mixed workload).
