The Ericsson KRC 161 296/1 is a Remote Radio Unit (RRU) within the Ericsson KRC 161 board family, confirmed via extensive reseller documentation (Skyward Telecom, dobrytech, eBay) covering dozens of sibling part numbers across the Ericsson Radio 2200/4400/8800-series RRU range, supporting GSM, WCDMA and LTE bands depending on the specific variant. A directly confirmed sibling, KRC 161 282/2, is documented as an 1800MHz-band RRU for Ericsson 4G base stations. RRUs in this family mount remotely near the antenna and connect back to the baseband unit over fibre, reducing feeder cable loss compared to a cabinet-mounted radio. The exact frequency band and radio model for this specific part number was not individually confirmed beyond the well-established KRC 161 family pattern. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies tested Ericsson RRU units; contact our engineers to confirm the exact band/model and compatibility with your specific base station configuration before ordering.
