Interfacing the Fusion Wideband Main Hub to an RF Source
7-46 InterReach Fusion Wideband Installation, Operation, and Reference Manual
CONFIDENTIAL D-620616-0-20 Rev F
NOTE: Refer to Section 9 for troubleshooting.
7.6 Interfacing the Fusion Wideband Main Hub
to an RF Source
WARNING: Only TE personnel or TE-authorized installation person-
nel should connect the Fusion Wideband Main Hub to its Band associ-
ated base station or repeater. Exceeding the maximum input power
could cause failure of the Fusion Wideband Main Hub (refer to Section 5.2 on
page 5-4 for maximum power specifications). If the maximum composite power
is too high, attenuation is required.
7.6.1 Connecting a Single Fusion Wideband Main Hub to an RF Source
The Fusion Wideband system supports up to three RF sources, one for Band 1, one
for Band 2, and one for Band 3. This section explains how each Band can be con-
nected to its associated RF source.
Connecting a Fusion Wideband Main Hub to an In-Building BTS
WARNING: Only TE personnel or TE-authorized installation person-
nel should connect the Fusion Wideband Main Hub to a base station or
repeater. Exceeding the maximum input power could cause failure of
the Fusion Wideband Main Hub (refer to Section 5.2 on page 5-4 for maximum
power specifications). If the maximum composite power is too high, attenuation
is required.
CAUTION:The UPLINK and DOWNLINK ports cannot handle a DC power
feed from the base station. If DC power is present, a DC block must be used
or the hub may be damaged.
Connecting a Simplex Base Station to a Fusion Wideband Main Hub RF Band:
1. Connect an N-male to N-male coaxial cable to the transmit simplex connector on
the base station.
