1 Introduction
HX is a mid-power, remote solution for the MA1000 and MA2000 distributed antenna systems (DAS). It is a fiber fed,
compact and scalable multi-service platform designed to complement the MA1000 and MA2000 while providing complete
RF open space coverage for large-scale public venues such as campuses, stadiums, convention centers, hotels, airports
and train stations. The solution can be
deployed in new sites or alongside existing lower power MA1000 and MA2000
systems, sharing a common headend and element management system (SC-450).
HX supports multiple wireless technologies and operator services over a single broadband infrastructure. Using low-loss
fiber optic cabling, remote units can cover distances of up to 2 km from the BTS signal sources at the headend.
Alongside other HX products (e.g. HX WCS, HX 2500 MHz TDD) and MA1000 and MA2000 deployments, HX provides a
comprehensive indoor and outdoor coverage solution for varying site requirements, supporting everything from high-rise
buildings and campus topologies to stadiums and airports.
In addition, the HX remote can be combined with an MA2000 lower power remote or HX remote supporting the HX 800
MHz ESMR band to create an HX Neutral Host Solution. The NH solution addresses the need for complete multiservice
coverage while meeting RSSI requirements for different cellular technologies.
Note: Refer to the HX Neutral Host Solution Application Note for details on combining HX Quad-Band solution with Sprint’s
800 MHz Band (CMA-238-AEN).
