1.6 Five-Band Configuration
Cost effective five-band support over a single fibre-optic is implemented using two MBF-units: MBF-
40 Slave unit and MBF-40 Master unit. The Master unit can be either tri-band or quad-band unit,
where the Slave provides single-band or dual-band support for a total of five bands.
All the services are routed to the Master unit via the optic fibre. The relevant (tri or quad) services
are filtered by the Master unit and forwarded along with the unfiltered Slave services towards the
Slave unit. At the Slave unit, the additional services are filtered and all five services are routed
towards the service antenna for distribution. Five-Band System installation instructions are provided
in section
2.4.
NOTE: The Web interface displays the five band service system as a single, 5-band unit. See Section
3.3.4. The connections between the two units are detailed in section 2.4.
The following figure shows a Master/Slave configuration. The figure below shows a five band
configuration implemented using a quad-band Master and single-band Slave. The example shows
connections for a configuration WITHOUT external alarms.
