1.1 Features and Capabilities
• High output power
• High efficiency MCPA amplifier technology
• Advanced and user-friendly remote control and supervision
• Up to four frequency bands in one enclosure
• Single enclosure MIMO support
• Up to 5 frequency bands over the same F/O cable ( 2 enclosures, master –slave configuration )
• 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
• Single or Dual Fiber feed models available
• 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
• Automatic optical gain setting - he gain is adjusted in the downlink chain by measuring the level of the
pilot carrier sent from the Optical Master Unit (OMU). The level of the received pilot carrier is
continuously monitored
• 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)
