RN hardware components
This chapter describes the components and shelf-mounted modules that make up the ipBTS
C30 and provides an illustration of each module in the system.
An ipBTS system can be configured to support three sector Radio Kits and requires one shelf
for a three sector system. A shelf is a standard 2U, 19-inch TELCO universal server rack, or
similar cabinet. This chapter contains the following sections:
• RN shelf components on page 5-1
• ADCC module on page 5-1
• Radio module on page 5-2
• Fan trays on page 5-2
• Air filter on page 5-3
RN shelf components
All components in the ipBTS RN shelf are Field Replaceable Units (FRUs). This section
describes the functions of each module.

controls three radio sectors and is responsible for the following functions:
• System Controller
• Timing
• 1xEvDO Modem
• Power conditioning and power supply
