Main Hub
RAU
The Main Hub receives downlink RF signals from
a base station using 50 Ohm coaxial cable.
The Main Hub converts the RF signals to IF, then
to optical signals and sends them to Expansion
Hubs (up to four) using optical fiber cable.
The Expansion Hub converts the optical sig-
nals to electrical signals and sends them to
RAUs (up to eight) using 75 Ohm CATV cable.
The RAU converts the IF signals
to RF and sends them to passive
antennas using 50 Ohm coaxial
cable.
