3. MULTI-BAND SELECTIVE CELL ENHANCER (RIVER PORTAL)
3.3 Band Selective BDA (55-154901)
3.3.1 Band Selective BDA Description
The band selective BDA which covers the ‘River Portal’ site carries two downlink paths and
one uplink path, all with automatic gain control on the last amplification stage in each path.
Cross band couplers are fitted to the input and output to facilitate a low frequency bypass of
the 800MHz BDA allowing the lower frequency signals to pass unhindered.
All amplifiers have built-in alarms which are configured as a summary, volt-free relay
contact pair terminating at pins 1 & 2 on the ‘D’ type alarm connector.
