H3C CPE5100P 5G Customer Premises Equipment

Beautified installation

This product has an exquisite appearance and is meticulously crafted. It supports desktop placement and can also be installed on the ceiling to meet different customer usage scenarios and deployment requirements.

Mainstream 5G and 4G frequency bands

This product supports all mainstream 5G frequency bands, including n1, n28, n41, n78, and n79.

It supports all mainstream frequency bands in LTE-FDD and LTE-TDD, including B1, B3, B5, B8, B34, B38, B39, B40, and B41.

It supports NSA and SA modes and is adaptive for NSA/SA.

Rich network features

This product provides static routing, IPv4/IPv6 dual stack, GRE tunneling, L2TP, NAT, port mapping, DHCP, DNS, IPsec encryption, bridge mode, routing behind MS, and other network functions. The features can be applied to various network environments.

Rich management methods

This product supports CLI management, local Web management, AC management (in fit AP mode), remote management, and public cloud management. Through remote network management, remote configuration management and upgrade operations can be performed on CPE5100P without the need for on-site maintenance.

Fit AP working mode

This product supports working in fit AP mode and being centrally managed by the AC. When multiple CPE5100Ps (WLAN network in fit mode) are deployed, WiFi clients can perform seamless authentication and roaming across CPE5100Ps.

This product support manual key operation to switch between fit AP and cloud AP modes. It can quickly adapt to different application scenarios and facilitate on-site maintenance.

Dual-link primary and backup network guarantee

This product supports 5G and WiFi for dual uplinks, with 5G and WiFi link backing up each other. It also supports both 5G and wired uplinks, with 5G and wired links backing up each other. By using 5G + WiFi or 5G + wired dual-WAN uplinks, the reliability of the communication links is enhanced.

Hardware specifications

Software specifications

Typical application—data transmission

As shown in the following figure:

CPE5100P is connected to downstream devices via Ethernet ports or WiFi, and the downstream devices include cameras and office endpoints.

CPE5100P accesses the 5G network via the 5G radio interface. In the upstream direction, the camera or office endpoint transmits image information and office data to the application server via CPE5100P over the 5G network. In the downstream direction, the campus application server sends camera control information and business data through the 5G network and interacts with the service endpoint devices through CPE5100P.

Special application—CPE compatible fit AP application

In WLAN wireless network deployment, the traditional method for connecting APs to ACs is wired connection, which has inconvenient deployment and high cost. By using CPEs to connect APs and implementing wireless backhaul through the 5G network, the deployment and cost issues are resolved. However, the CPEs and APs still need to be connected via wired connection.

To further reduce deployment difficulty and cost, as well as improve overall reliability and aesthetics, CPE5100P supports fit AP mode. In this mode, one CPE5100P is equivalent to one CPE and one AP.

Network description

CPE5100P supports registration with an AC and is centrally managed by the AC.

AC supports unified planning and allocation of IP addresses for the entire network's WiFi clients.

WiFi clients are authenticated through the wireless authentication platform. Authentication methods include portal authentication, MAC authentication, and IEEE 802.1X authentication.

Seamless secondary authentication and roaming across CPE5100Ps are available to WiFi clients.

Values

WLAN networks are fast deployed with reduced difficulty and cost.

The AC audits internal and external network traffic.

WiFi clients directly access the intranet.

Special application—Dual-link backup with 5G and WiFi

CPE5100 supports dual uplinks with both 5G and WiFi for WiFi clients. In a network environment with both 5G and WLAN, the 5G and WiFi links can be used as backups for each other to enhance transmission reliability. The network applications are as follows.

Network description

CPE5100P provides wired Ethernet access on the LAN side and is connected to the upstream network through 5G and WiFi on the WAN side.

You can configure WiFi or 5G as the primary link, and the other link will be the backup link.

The primary and backup links perform switchover and collaboration through NQA and Track. When the primary link is interrupted, traffic will automatically switch to the backup link. When the primary link is restored, traffic falls back to the backup link.

Values

If both WiFi and 5G networks exist, communication reliability is enhanced through the primary and backup links with WiFi and 5G.

Special application—Dual-link backup with 5G and wired connection

Network description

CPE5100P provides Wi-Fi access in the LAN side and is connected via 5G and wired connection to the WAN side.

You can configure a wired or 5G as the primary link, and the other link will be the backup link.

The primary and backup links perform switchover and collaboration through NQA and Track. When the primary link is interrupted, traffic will automatically switch to the backup link. When the primary link is restored, traffic falls back to the backup link.

Values

By configuring the primary and backup links with 5G and wired connection, the reliability of the communication links is improved.

Chassis

CPE5100P is sold as a whole chassis. The package contains a chassis and a ceiling mounting bracket.

Optional parts

Optional parts are not included in the delivery of the endpoint, and users can choose according to their needs. As follows:
