Add Cell(ADD CELL)

Function

A configuration command that adds a 2G internal cell.

Note

1. A BSC supports up to 2,048 cells.

2. A BTS supports up to 12 cells.

3. The name of a cell must be unique in a BSC and the name cannot be empty.

4. Any two cells in a BSC cannot have the same CGI.

5. When Freq. Band is set to PCS1900, you cannot configure a DCS1800 cell or a Co-BCCH cell. When Freq. Band is set to DCS1800, you cannot configure a PCS1900 cell.

6. When the TRX is configured in cabinet group 1 or 2, you need to add a slave chain or internal connection to the BTS.

7. Only the BTS3012 and the BTS3012II support combined cabinets and cabinet groups.
