Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Product Overview
The Cisco
® Universal Small Cell (USC) 7330 is an indoor small cell that provides Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) coverage and capacity to public areas where macro networks cannot do so cost-effectively. These locations range from venues for indoor events requiring high-density service to concourse spaces, such as shopping malls, airports, and stations that are characterized by sudden surges in demand. Users in these locations require high data throughput as a viable complement to Wi-Fi and also need good coverage across the public space. In addition to transforming the mobile experience and helping service providers cope with challenging congestion conditions, the Cisco USC 7330 reduces network costs through intelligent policy-based operation, by making use of commodity in-building backhaul.

Features and Benefits
Systems deployed in busy metro areas must be able to meet the high demands created when many users generate bursty traffic, along with the associated signaling. Cisco has developed features and algorithms that allow small cells to self-adjust to these demands, optimizing coverage and capacity to provide sustainable service.
For busy small cells interacting with the existing macro network, mobile operators demand key performance indicators (KPIs) to match those of the macro network. The Cisco USC 7330 (Figure 1) is a highly available device designed to provide up to 99.999 percent availability in high-traffic environments, using commercially proven software enhancements to maximize cell uptime. In common with all Cisco small cells, the Cisco USC 7330 offers fully automated real-time interference management, which is further enhanced using self-organizing network (SON) techniques for multicell clusters.
Low-cost scalability, maintenance and new service delivery are provided by the Cisco Universal Small Cell (USC) Cloud Base lifecycle management system, which is dedicated to small cell deployments. The result is a compelling combination of flexible capacity and coverage with a low total cost of ownership (TCO) for a network that can be deployed quickly and easily.
Main Features
• Support for Evolved High-Speed Packet Access (HSPA+)
• High-availability software
• Allocation of 3G coverage and capacity
• Support for up to 16 active 3G users
• Fully-automated, macro-aware, real-time radio interference management and self-configuration
• SON support for multicell deployments, with no local enterprise small cell gateway needed
• Cisco USC Cloud Base software automation and lifecycle management systems that simplify installation, reduce TCO, and accelerate rollout
