• 2600
• Up to four frequencies in a single enclosure
• Five-band single fiber-optic solution – implemented using two units MBF-40 Master
and MBF-40 Slave models
• Single enclosure MIMO support
• Output power at the antenna (composite): 37dBm, 39dBm, 43dBm (model
dependent)
• Very low noise factor - minimizes interference to BTS and increases high speed data
throughput

• Remote commissioning and monitoring:
• Via OMU II intuitive Web GUI
• Via AEM – no local setup required
• SNMP v1/v2c support
• Plug-and-Play: Automatic detection and Optical Gain Setting via the OMU
• Automatic Level Control (ALC) - provides constant gain in both uplink and downlink
paths according to the defined maximum output level
• Backup battery for ‘last gasp’ indication (sending fault error before power failure)
• Optional - two internal power supplies provided for some models ensure robust unit
operation
• Power source: 115VAC or -48V power (model dependent)
