Hello,
We have a few DualBand (900/1800) 2G BTS Site, with 2 cabinets, one per carrier (E*******).
These Site are in remote areas and have very little traffic on them.
Usually only one sector has some traffic, although very low and the other sectors are without traffic.
We would like to halt (switch off) the sectors of the secondary carrier (1800 MHz) to reduce the power consumption of these sites.
The question is, if we halt the cells of the secondary carrier will we significantly reduce power consumption of the entire site.
Can this achieve a 50% power reduction for the site? (assuming there is no Air Conditioning)
Thanks in advance
