KRC161549/1 Ericsson Ericsson Radio 2217 Radio Remote Unit

The Ericsson KRC161549/1 is a Radio 2217 B20 remote radio unit (RRU) designed for LTE mobile network deployments operating on Band 20 (800MHz). This unit forms part of Ericsson’s Radio Access Network infrastructure, providing the RF transmission and reception capabilities required for 4G cellular coverage.

The Radio 2217 series is deployed in Ericsson’s RBS (Radio Base Station) systems, typically connected to baseband units via CPRI fibre links. Band 20 at 800MHz is widely used across European markets for LTE coverage, offering excellent propagation characteristics suited to rural and suburban deployments where extended range is beneficial.

This is an established product within Ericsson’s radio portfolio, deployed extensively in 4G network rollouts. As operators continue to maintain and expand legacy LTE infrastructure alongside 5G deployments, these units remain relevant for network maintenance, capacity expansion and coverage infill projects.
