Preconditions

replacement
There are up to six CTUs in a cabinet. Replacing a CTU requires removal of RF
transmitter power for that CTU; it is therefore advisable to perform this
procedure during periods of low traffic. The OMC-R should be notified of
imminent repair activity.
NOTE
The CTU replacement procedure is the same for all CTUs,
regardless of frequency rating.
