Frequently Asked Questions
Will MosoLabs small cells work with any Helium 5G Gateway?
MosoLabs small cells are certified to work with FreedomFi gateways as well as “Powered by FreedomFi” certified gateways.
After I set up my Helium MosoLabs small cell, are there any recurring fees I have to pay?
12 months after the activation of your MosoLabs CBRS Small Cell you will have to pay a recurring monthly fee for as long as you keep and operate your small cell.
Per FCC mandate, operators of CBRS cellular devices are required to pay a recurring fee to Spectrum Access System (SAS) providers. The cost for the first year is on us.
Is the Indoor or Outdoor CBRS Small Cell best for me?
It depends. Both indoor and outdoor small cells will earn you Helium MOBILE tokens following HIP-51 and HIP-53. Your decision comes down to where you want to install the devices and the coverage you want for your setup.
The MosoLabs indoor small cell is simpler to install and is perfect for covering indoor spaces. A small cell that is mounted indoors can provide limited outdoor coverage similar to a high-power WiFi access point.
The MosoLabs outdoor small cell requires a bit more effort to install and must be mounted outside per federal regulations.
Will MosoLabs small cells work outside the US?
All MosoLabs small cells today work on the Citizen Broadband Radio Service spectrum (CBRS) which is only allowed for operation in the US. Future products may support cellular bands in other parts of the world.
What is the range of the CBRS Small Cell?
Your range will depend on the type of small cell you purchase, your installation, and the small cell power capability.
Outdoor small cells are designed with higher power output compared to indoor small cells.
Outdoor small cell antennas are generally more directional because they have higher gain while indoor small cell antennas are usually omni-directional.
What is the best location to install my CBRS Small Cell?
Typically, the best location is as high up as you can get with as clear a view to the area you want to cover.
How much will I earn with my CBRS Small Cell?
Earnings depend on the type of small cell installed, location of install, your device being consistenyly online, number of other cells on the network, and how much network activity there is in your area.
How can I connect devices to my small cell?
Am I required to have my Outdoor CBRS Small Cell installed by a certified professional installer (CPI)?
MosoLabs outdoor small cells require CPI installation. CPI requirements for outdoor small cells are met via remote certification that happens during the FreedomFi plug-and-play setup process. No on-site CPI presence will be required.
When will my Helium 5G Hotspot start earning MOBILE?
Helium MOBILE Genesis has already started. Earnings will start as soon as your radio is online and has a SAS grant.
