Connecting a Fusion Wideband Main Hub to Flexwave Focus
Refer to the FlexWave Focus manual for information.
Connecting Multiple Fusion Wideband Main Hubs to an RF Source
You can use power combiner/splitters as splitters to connect multiple Fusion Wideband Main
Hubs in order to increase the total number of RAUs in a system. You can also use power
combiner/splitters to combine Base Station channels in order to increase the number of RF
carriers the system transports.
Connecting Multiple Fusion Wideband Main Hubs to a Simplex Repeater or BTS
CAUTION! Only TE personnel or TE-authorized installation personnel 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 Appendix A: Cables and Connectors” on page 191 for
maximum power specifications). If the maximum composite power
is too high, atten
uation is
required.
1 Make sure you have the following components:
2 Connect the
power combiner/splitters to the repeater or Base Station using N-male to N-male
coaxial jumper cables, in the following order:
from the first power combin
e
r/splitter to the repeater or Base Station UPLINK
from the sec
ond power combiner/splitter to the repeater or Base Station DOWNLINK.
3 Connect the power com
biner/splitters to the Hubs, in the following order:
from the first Hub’s UPLINK port (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3) to
the first power
combiner/splitter
from the first Hub’s DOWNLINK port (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3) to the second power
combiner/splitter
from the sec
ond Hub’s UPLINK port (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3) to the first power
combiner/splitter
f
rom the second Hub’s DOWNLINK port (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3)
to the second power
combiner/splitter.
CAUTION! Connections should not cross Bands. For example, all Band 1 connections should be made to the
same hybrid power combiner/splitter connected to the repeater BTS that matches the Band 1
frequency.
