Source and accuracy
Specifications are taken from the Nextivity QUATRA EVO data sheet (PDF) (opens in a new tab), checked 7 November 2026. Values the manufacturer does not state are left out rather than estimated.
- Unit weights are not stated in the data sheet text. EVO Coverage Units must be paired with EVO Network Units.
Suited to
- Buildings needing one or two carriers
- Single-tenant commercial sites
- Sites that may expand with fibre

Terms on this page
- 3GPP release
- The version of the mobile standards a modem implements. Later releases add features.
- SFP
- A slot for a plug-in fibre or copper module, often used for fibre uplinks between cabinets.
- PoE and PoE+
- Power over Ethernet carries power and data on one cable. PoE+ (802.3at) supplies up to 30 W per port.
- IP rating
- Protection against dust and water. IP30 and IPX0 equipment is for indoor or enclosed installation.
- 4.3-10 connector
- A compact, low-PIM RF connector used on DAS equipment.
- WAVE Portal
- Nextivity's cloud platform for monitoring and configuring CEL-FI systems.
- Echo cancellation
- Lets a repeater run high gain without feeding back between its donor and server antennas.
- DSS
- Dynamic spectrum sharing: 4G and 5G sharing the same frequency band.
- FDD and TDD
- Two ways of separating upload and download: by frequency (FDD) or by time (TDD).
