Connecting Multiple LGCell Systems
Connecting multiple LGC
ell
systems increases the total number of Remote
Antenna Units (RAUs). Multiple LGC
ells
can be stacked to increase the total
number of RAUs through the use of power combiner/dividers.
LGC Wireless provides Integration Modules which may be used with the LGC
ell
to efficiently centralize additional radio capacity inside a facility. These Modules
provide the connection between the radios for the facility and the LGC
ell
system.
Because the Integration Modules distribute all available radio capacity
automatically among all antennas within a cell, available capacity is dynamically
allocated throughout the entire coverage area, thus providing an improved grade of
service without the need to conduct ongoing traffic monitoring and analysis.
Specific installation information on all available Integration Modules may be found
in the
Integration Module Installation and Reference Manual
.
Connecting two LGCells
Connecting two LGC
ells
increases the total number of RAUs from 16 to 32. A 2x1
or 2x2 hybrid power combiner/divider is required (see graphic below).
