ADCP-75-116 • Issue A • August 2001 • Section 1: Overview 2.3 Handset Interface The RU interfaces with the handsets through an antenna. In the reverse path, the RU receives RF signals from each handset. The RU digitizes the RF signals and then converts them to digital optical signals for transport to the HU. In the forward path, the RU receives digital optical signals from the HU. The RU converts the optical signals to RF signals for transmission to the handsets.
ADCP-75-116 • Issue A • August 2001 • Section 1: Overview 3 SYSTEM FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES This section describes various system level functions and features of the Digivance LRCS. 3.1 Fiber Optic Transport On an optional basis, the Digivance LRCS is available either with or without reverse path diversity. On non-diversity systems that do not use a WDM module, the HU is connected to the RU over a pair of single-mode fiber optic links. One link is used to transport the forward path optical signal.

ADCP-75-116 • Issue A • August 2001 • Section 1: Overview Because separate forward and reverse path optical inputs and outputs are provided at the HU and RU, a Free Space Optics (FSO) system may be used in applications where it is desirable to bridge an open span and where it is impractical to lay a fiber optic cable. One FSO transceiver unit may be mounted on the HU side of the open span and the other FSO transceiver unit may be mounted on the RU side of the open span.
ADCP-75-116 • Issue A • August 2001 • Section 1: Overview 3.4 Powering The HU is powered by 24 to 48 Vdc and must be hard-wired to a local office battery power source through a fuse panel. The RU is powered by 120 or 240 Vac (50 or 60 Hz) and must be hard-wired to the AC power source through a 20 Amp breaker box. The RU is pre-wired for 120 Vac operation but can be converted to 240 Vac through the installation of a 240 Vac outlet kit (accessory item).
