Cell scenarios: Only FDD supports

cell setup in a sector with
RRU/RFU channel cross-
connection under MIMO, while
TDD does not.
Multi-sector scenarios: For FDD,
only the BTS3911E or BTS3912E
supports multi-sector networking.
For TDD, only the BTS3912E
supports multi-sector networking.
Other micro eNodeBs do not. For
LBFD- TDLBF TDD and FDD, types of multi-
