(1) When using a Host Unit with both a SeRF II and System Board
II or III, the bandwidths and fiber for the following Single
SuperDARTs can be greater than 6 fiber slots, for full-band capability, when used in Host Unit Slots 1 and 3: 1800 GSM SGL
SuperDART; 1900 PCS SGL SuperDART; 2100 AWS SGL SuperDART; 2100 UMTS SGL SuperDART.
This requires 12 fiber slots when full-band passband is selected fo
r these Single SuperDARTs in Host Unit DART positions 1
and 3.
