Radio 4438
The Ericsson Radio 4438 B2/B25/B66 is a high‑performance dual‑band FDD radio that delivers outstanding coverage, capacity, and energy efficiency across LTE and NR networks. Engineered to replace two single‑band units, it consolidates performance into a single, lightweight, passively cooled solution ideal for street‑pole and small‑site deployments. Supporting B2/B25 and B66 bands, the 4438 offers flexible output power, modern transport interfaces, and modular integration options to simplify rollout and reduce site complexity.
Its compact form factor lowers tower payload, shortens installation time, and minimizes OPEX while enhancing uplink performance in hotspot and fill‑in sectors. With frequency‑division duplex design and RAN‑sharing readiness, Radio 4438 enables operators to extend coverage, boost data throughput, and modernize networks efficiently across rural, suburban, and urban environments.
