6. Introduction
This section describes the TFL (Local Unit). The TFL is the part of Britecell system
that provides E/O downlink conversion and O/E uplink conversion of RF signal.
The TFL is connected to remote TFA by means of two optical fibres.
The system forms a star configuration. One fibre is dedicated to the transmission
of the downlink signals received from BTS and re-transmitted to the mobile. The
other fibre supports the transmission of up-link signals, received from mobile
through the TFA remote units and destine for the BTS.
The TFL cards are 6HE plug-in modules and are contained in a standard 19”
subrack (TPR family).
