General Information
Communication Component Inc.’s Cell Ex-
tender products are designed to extend the
range and coverage area of Micro Base Sta-
tions in all GSM PCS applications. The Cell Ex-
tender boosts the output power of the Micro
Base Stations to match the levels of conven-
tional Base Stations allowing for cost efficient
implementation of high capacity radio networks.
It also or may -noise amplification of the receive signal to improve system
sensitivity and to maintain a balanced link of the transmit and receive sig-
nals.
The Cell Extender is easy to install, requires no maintenance, and is fully
compatible with a variety of Base Station equipment including the Ericsson
2308 series and Nortel E-cell series Micro-BTS. The Cell Extender offers
the maximum installation flexibility by allowing the Micro Base Stations to
be physically distanced from the antenna and mounting structure. This
overcomes the key installation drawback of the Micro Base Stations which
requires both a T1 connection and an AC connection on the mounting
structure. Three installation options are available.

Configuration 1 - The CE-1819-10 can be mounted on the same mounting structure directly above
or below the Micro Base Station. This option is ideal when an existing Micro Base Station site is be-
ing upgraded with a Cell Extender or when both AC and T1 connections are available on the mount-
ing structure.
Configuration 2 - The Micro Base Station is installed at ground level or indoors and the Cell Ex-
tender is mounted on the mounting structure, in close proximity to the antenna. This configuration is
ideal for environments where AC lines and T1-connections are not easily available on the mounting
structure or when it is desired to keep the Micro Base Station indoors. For this configuration, the
Cell Extender should be ordered with the Remote Power Option which includes a Bias-t and Remote
Power Supply module to provide DC power to the Cell Extender over the coax cable.
Configuration 3 - Both the Micro Base Station and the Cell Extender are installed at the ground
level or indoors. This is intended for applications where it is impractical to install any equipment
other than the antenna on the mounting structure.

Additional Information
Communication Components Inc. PCS GSM Multi-Channel Cell Extender
The Cell Extender is specifically designed for compatibility with the a variety Micro Base Sta-
tion Equipment and is guaranteed to maintain the integrity of the GSM signal upon amplifica-
tion. This is achieved by utilizing state-of-the-art LDMOS technology for power amplification,
monolithic Gallium-Arsenide technology low noise receive amplification, with particular empha-
sis on low system group delay to minimize Bit-Error-Rate (BER) of digital transmissions.
The Cell Extender block consists of a single compact unit with two RF connectors and a single
AC line for power. It is housed in a moisture proof NEMA 4X aluminum die-cast enclosure with
integrated heat sinks and is suitable for either outdoor or indoor installations. The Cell Ex-
tender is designed to boost two pre-combined GSM or EDGE channels that are provided from
the Micro Base Station. It contains redundant low noise amplifiers to boost the receive signals,
redundant LDMOS-based high power amplifiers to boost the transmit signal, dual duplexers,
an integrated power supply and alarm/control circuitry to monitor the operation of the unit. The
Cell Extender is powered by a conventional 110/220 VAC source or can be optionally DC-
powered via the Coax cable using the Remote Power Option.

FCC Information
A minimum separation distance of 2 meters between the transmit antenna and nearby persons
must be maintained. If this separation distance is not maintained, this device may not be in
compliance with FCC RF Exposure rules.
