Mmm, that module you refer to is only carrier agnostic on paper. It means that Cisco configures the frequencies for the carrier that wants to use it. I tried to use the module for unlicensed spectrum in the 1800 Mhz band but Cisco did not support that ;-( FYI: many regulators in EU allow to use the DECT-guard bands as unlicensed indoor spectrum. Practically all phones support it; it is often used for private-GSM/private LTE solutions -Frans

I'm also curious if this is something that Cisco/Aruba/etc will build into Access Points and controllers in a carrier-agnostic way, so we don't need additional devices, wiring, or management and can spread it over a good-sized area when we know we need it. Cisco and Apple announced a partnership last July at Cisco Live. http://www.cisco.com/c/m/en_us/solutions/strategic-partners/apple.html Cisco did have a MicroCelluar module in the 3600 AP that was carrier agnostic before. http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/wireless/universal-small-cell-5310/index.html ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/discuss. ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/discuss.
