2. Introduction
MF0145ASA.docx User’s Manual for ION
®
-M7HP/85HP EU Page 13
2. Introduction
2.1. Purpose
Cellular telephone systems transmit signals in two directions between a base
transceiver station (BTS) and mobile stations (MS) within the signal coverage area.
If weak signal transmissions occur within the coverage area because of indoor
applications, topological conditions or distance from the transmitter, extension of the
transmission range can be achieved by means of an optical distribution system.
Such a system contains an optical Master Unit and several Remote Units. The
number of the Remote Units depends on the hardware and software configuration.
The Remote Units are connected to the Master Unit with optical links. The optical
loss must be less than 10 dB inclusive optical couplers or splitters.
The Master Unit is the connection to the base transceiver stations. The configuration
of a Master Unit depends on the number of the Remote Units and the frequency
range.
WDM (Wave Division Multiplex) filters are integrated in the optical modules. For the
UL, a wavelength within 1546 nm - 1550 nm is used. For the DL, a wavelength of
1310 ±10 nm is used. The maximum output power for the UL and DL is 6.7 mW.
2.2. The ION-M7HP/85HP EU
The ION-M7HP/85HP EU is an LTE CDMA/WCDMA multi-operator, multi-band
Extension Unit. It is used in conjunction with the main unit ION-M17HP/19HP. This
extension system transports multiple LTE700 channels and 850 MHz wide-band
signals simultaneously, providing a cost-effective solution for distribution capacity
from one or more base stations.
The ION-M7HP/85HP EU transports signals on the RF layer in a very inexpensive
manner. This means that multiple operators and multiple technologies are moved
simultaneously from a cluster of base stations to a remote location over the same
fiber.
The ION optical distribution system is a cost-effective coverage solution for dense
urban areas, tunnels, subway, airports, convention centers, high-rise buildings and
other locations where physical structures increase path loss. It has been specifically
designed to reduce zoning problems and to provide homogeneous coverage. The
compact, mechanical design is specifically architected to mount alongside structures
in such a way that it has a minimal visual impact. The ION-M7HP/85HP EU supports
700 MHz and 850 MHz. It has been specifically tested and optimized for LTE, OFDM,
CDMA, and WCDMA signals.
2. Introduction
Page 14 MF0145ASA.docx User’s Manual for ION
®
-M7HP/85HP EU
The ION is easily set-up and supervised via a graphical user interface (GUI). Remote
units can be commissioned through the use of built-in test equipment. An auto-
leveling function compensates for the optical link loss making installation easy and
quick. The entire system may be monitored remotely via an Andrew OMC. This
platform uses SNMP protocol and is compliant to X.733 standard.
Should a sophisticated interface not be required, the Master Unit can be directly
connected to the alarm interface of a base station via its contact relay.
Multi-channel, multi-operator support
Reduced visual impact form factor
Efficient, high power amplifier
Single fiber for multiple bands and multiple remotes
Comprehensive operations and management system for configuration and
