USER MANUAL FOR RH-8132     ENU STATUS : 1-0-0  Copyright - refer to title page  Page 8    1 GENERAL INFORMATION The RH-8132 850MHz CDMA and UMTS Dual Mode Fiber Optic Repeater (hereinafter called “RH-8132”) can be used in a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint distributed antenna system to provide effective coverage enhancement. It uses fiber transmission and is suitable for applications where large signal coverage is required, such as citywide enhancement, highways, canyons, campuses, underground tunnels, airports, convention centres, etc.  This system consists of Digital Access Unit (DAU) and Digital Remote RF Unit (DRU).   The low loss of optical fiber makes it suitable for long distance transmission. This system can support optical transmission of up to 10dB signal transmission loss. There is no isolation problem as in standard off-air repeaters, which means customer can select the service antenna flexibly according to the real situation, such as directional or Omni-directional antenna.  Remote configuration and surveillance is possible through Comba’s OMC remote control and monitoring system.  Characteristics of RH-8132 are as follows:  •  Supports 7.5 MHz of CDMA subband ( 870.5~877.5/825~832.5 MHz) and 5 MHz of WCDMA subband ( 877.5~882.5/832.5~837.5 MHz). •  Flexible network configuration as star, daisy chain and mixed configuration.  •  Automatic and manual time delay adjustment effectively avoids same frequency interference in chain configuration.  •  Optional redundancy design for PSU and PA module.  •  Supports remote firmware upgrade via fibre.  •  Local Operation and Maintenance Terminal (OMT): operating status and parameters can be set or monitored by OMT PC locally. And the point-to-point setting and inquiry between DAU and DRU is realizable through optical fiber, which makes it convenient for on-site configuration.  •  Operation Maintenance Center (OMC): system working parameters and communication configuration can be set or inquired remotely through the ethenet cable.
