System Gain
7.3 System Gain
The following table shows a summary of the system gain when 1 km (3300 ft) of
62.5µm/125µm multimode fiber is used. The optical loss of 1 km (3300 ft) of MMF
cable ranges from about 0.6 to 1.0 dB optical, depending on the type of cable
(i.e., riser zip-cord, loose tube, slotted core, etc.).
NOTE: The maximum input power to the Main Hub is equal to the maximum output
power of the RAU minus the system gain. For example, for a Cellular system with 6
TDMA carriers, the maximum output power is 4.5 dBm per carrier. If the duplex port
is used, the maximum input power to the Main Hub should be no greater than
–25.5 dBm per carrier.
