Network site requirements for AWS Private 5G

A network site is the physical location where you set up your network. The range and coverage that you obtain can vary depending on the following characteristics about your site:

  • Physical conditions

  • Throughput requirements

  • The antennas and radio power of the equipment connecting to the network

  • Citizen Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) power grants

  • The location of your small cell equipment

Before you create an order, verify that your site meets the following requirements.

Facility

Your facility must meet the following criteria:

  • Environment – Radio units hold an Ingress Protection rating of IP67, which allows for indoor or outdoor installations.

  • Operating temperature – The ambient temperature must be between -40° F (-40° C) and 149° F (65° C).

  • Weight support – If pole-mounted, structural support for 5.5 lbs (2.5 kg) in addition to the weight of any mounts.

  • Power – You must supply power to the radio units using Power over Ethernet (PoE).

  • Operating country – You must operate the radio unit in the United States. You cannot, and will not permit or authorize any third parties to export or otherwise remove the Private 5G equipment from the United States.

  • Federal Communications Commission (FCC) limits – Equipment must comply with FCC radiation exposure limits for an uncontrolled environment. Install and operate this equipment with a minimum distance of 7.8 inches (20 cm) between the radio unit and your body.

Networking

You must provide following:

  • Cables for network and power.

  • A 1 Gbps Ethernet port with copper wire and an RJ45 connector.

  • A wide area network (WAN) with 200 Mbps capacity and a maximum transmission unit (MTU) of at least 1428 Bytes.

  • IPv4 routing.

  • DHCP so that radio units can obtain IP addresses.

  • DNS resolution to a trusted and reliable DNS server registered with ICANN.

Outbound ports required for radio units

The radio units require open connections to the internet on the following ports:

  • IP 50 – IPsec tunnel traffic

  • IP 51 – IPsec tunnel traffic

  • UDP 53 – DNS

  • TCP 53 – DNS

  • TCP 80 – Certificate retrieval

  • UDP 123 – NTP/clock synchronization

  • TCP 443 – Management traffic

  • UDP 500 – IPSec tunnel traffic

  • UDP 4500 – IPSec tunnel traffic
