Multi-Operator Configurations

Multi-operator systems require the use of Point of Interconnects (POIs), RF Combining

Modules (RCMs) and OCMs as illustrated in Figure 1-17. In this simple example, two operators

have two sectors each. Each sector is connected to a POI and then to a RCM. The RCM is

interconnected with an OCM via coaxial cables. The combined DL and UL signals are

converted to optical signals in the OCM and then distributed to the ARs.

Figure 1-17 Multi-operator System

The example illustrates a star networking connection. The ARs could also be connected in a

daisy-chain configuration using splitters. The complete system is properly tuned during

commissioning. Additional information is provided in the Fiber Optic Equipment Operation and

Maintenance Manual.
