CAP H Overview
CAP H OVERVIEW
This installation guide describes the High Power Carrier Access Point (CAP H), which interfaces with a Classic
CAN or TEN via an optical link. This allows the CAP H to provide data over Single-Mode Fi
ber (SMF), or
Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF). Power for a CAP H is provided over internal AC/DC (AC version) or DC (DC version).
On the downlink, the CAP H converts data arriving at the CAP H to analog signals and sends them to the
An
tenna port. On the uplink, received signals are digitized and serialized into data streams, which are sent
back to the Classic CAN or TEN.
Figure 1 on page 5 shows how a CAP H can be deployed in an Era system.
