Maximum number of UEs in RRC_CONNECTED mode per eNodeB FDD:

The maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported by an eNodeB can be
calculated using the following formula:
Maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported by an eNodeB =
Min (Maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported by the main
control board, N x Maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported
by a baseband board)
The main control board is the LMPT or UMPT.

the main control board.

Maximum Number of DRBs Supported:

The maximum number of data radio bearers (DRBs) per user is eight.
The maximum number of DRBs supported by an LMPT/UMPT/LBBP/UBBP is three
times the maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported.
The maximum number of DRBs supported by an eNodeB is 32,400.

The signaling specification of an eNodeB is calculated by the following formula:

In LBBP+LMPT/UMPT scenarios, eNodeB signaling specifications = Min (N x LBBP
signaling specifications, M x signaling specifications of the main control board), where N
is the number of LBBP boards and M is the number of main control boards (LMPT or
UMPT).
In UBBPd+LMPT scenarios, eNodeB signaling specifications = Min (N x UBBPd signaling
specifications, M x LMPT signaling specifications), where N is the number of UBBPd
boards and M is the number of LMPT boards.
In UBBPd+UMPT scenarios, eNodeB signaling specifications = N x UBBPd signaling
specifications, where N is the number of UBBPd boards.
NOTE
The signaling specifications of an eNodeB cannot exceed 480000 BHCA.

of eNodeBs.
