Ericsson Releases New Network Radios That Use Less Power

Ericsson released seven new radio access network products, with an emphasis on lower power consumption. The updated gear includes dual-band Radio 4490, which consumes 25% less power than the current product, and a high-power version, 4490 HP. “The portfolio additions will deliver sizable energy savings and up to ten-fold capacity increases -- with minimal or no added footprint,” the company said Wednesday. They use passive cooling “reducing power consumption further, as fans are not needed.”
