5G small cells provide coverage where not supported by macro base stations. Femto solutions are optimized for power and cost. Connectivity to the core network is provided through broadband internet (FTTH, DSL, Cable, among others). When needed, omni-directional mmWave coverage is provided through use of multiple RF antenna panels. Power is provided through DC wall plugs or PoE/PoE+ operation.
