2.1 System Overview
InterReach Fusion is an intelligent fiber optics/CATV, multi-band (frequencies) wire-
less networking system designed to handle both wireless voice and data communica-
tions over licensed frequencies. It provides high-quality, ubiquitous, seamless access
to the wireless network in smaller buildings.
Fusion provides RF characteristics designed for large public and private facilities
such as campus environments, airports, shopping malls, subways, convention centers,
sports venues, and so on. Fusion uses microprocessors to enable key capabilities such
as software-selectable band settings, automatic gain control, ability to incrementally
adjust downlink/uplink gain, end-to-end alarming of all components and the associ-
ated cable infrastructure, and a host of additional capabilities.
The Fusion system supports major wireless standards and air interface protocols in
use around the world, including:
• Frequencies: 700 MHz, 800 MHz, 850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz,
2100 MHz
• Voice Protocols: AMPS, TDMA, CDMA, GSM/EGSM,WCDMA, iDEN, LTE
