When multiple cabinets (each equipped with several repeaters) are installed in an enclosed
area, ensure appropriate ventilation and consider air conditioning or other climate control
equipment to satisfy the temperature requirements.
6.1.4 Electrical wiring
The electrical wiring must be done using appropriate cables thus assuring the equipment responds to
the electromagnetic compatibility standards.
The cable terminates to flying connectors which have to be connected to the corresponding
connectors on the equipment rear panel. The connector of the power cable supplied with the product
is the means to disconnect the device from the power source.
Position and pin–out of the equipment connectors are available in the appropriate section in the
following of this document.
6.1.5 Unit grounding
The device is equipped with a ground nut located on the rear panel of the device and identified by a
label. This nut must be used for a direct connection of the device to the site grounding, even if the

E/M Hardware Line settings
All the E/M signals share a common voltage reference. The four Mouth signals may be hardware
configured independently. The four Ear signals share the same hardware configuration in couple of
lines. For unbalanced settings connect the two communicating entities to the same ground.
E/M Type I Interface Model
E/M Type I is the original E/M lead signaling arrangement and it is the most common interface type in
North America. The following diagram displays the sent signal states for active/not active signaling.
The RBS grounds its M−lead to signal a seizure. The other device applies battery to its M−lead to
signal a seizure. The RBS expects to see active conditions on the E−lead and signal active to the
remote device on M−lead.
RBS side

8.1.3 SWITCH module
The Switch module realizes a "solid state" switch (MOSFET) device for the distribution of the
power necessary for the proper working of all the modules of the ECOS-D RBS. In particular
its primary task is to distribute the 13,2 Vdc nominal voltage (Master voltage) and 7 Vdc
nominal voltage (Slave voltage).
The 7 Vdc Slave voltage is used by all the other modules to power their logic. It is generated
by the switch module for direct conversion from the 13,2 Vdc Master voltage.
The switch module provides:
• ON / OFF of all the modules on the same RBS
• Protection against Extra Current (short circuit or overload > 22 A ± 5%)
• Protection against Extra voltage (maximum input voltage equal to 30 Vdc ± 5%)
• Protection against voltages outside the guaranteed operating range [10.8 ÷ 15.6 Vdc].

8.1.5 Radio Receiver and Transmitter module - RTX
The “Radio Receiver and Transmitter” (RTX) module is the module that realizes a full duplex
radio in the frequency bands commonly used by in the LMR/PMR market (450 - 526 MHz). It
is able to operate with channel spacing of 12.5 kHz, 20 kHz and 25 kHz. Limitation on usable
RF bands and channel spacing may apply due to local regulations.
This module is equipped with devices for numerical computation (DSP, FPGA) and control
(microprocessor) combined with the radio receiver front-end and the transmitter driver.
The RTX module main functionalities are:
• Dynamic Dual mode radio operations with support of digital and analog
modulation
• Synchronization from external reference via CORE module
• Temperature control.
• UHF band: 450 – 526 MHz

8.1.6 Power Amplifier module - PA
The “Power Amplifier” (PA) module is a wide band RF amplifier in UHF (450 526 MHz).
Their time of TX ramp up/down is less than 1200 µsec. This makes the module
compatible with the stringent demands of digital transmission.
Thanks to a microprocessor mounted on board, the module is able to implement
the PUFF technology (Powerful Universal Forming Function) for the shaping of
transient power in order to obtain compliance with the rapid transient rules of
ACP (Adjacent Channel Power).
The microprocessor also manages completely the operation of the module: this
would remove any calibration procedures. All configuration changes are performed via software.
Other main functionalities are:
• continuous transmitter’s operations (100% duty cycle).
• Output power selectable between two values (Phi and Plo), each of which can be SW set to
a nominal value between 10 and 110 Watts.
• final stage protected against excessive mismatching output power. In the case that VSWR
remains above a set threshold (eg ReturnLoss = 5dB) for more than a fixed time, the
module is able to send an alert and the output power will not exceed a safety value (eg ≤
10watt).
• temperature threshold alarm: if the temperature remains above a set value for more than a
fixed time, the module is able to send an alert and will ensure that the RF output power will
not exceed a predetermined safe value.
The front panel is provided with bi-color leds to help in troubleshooting the system. The table below
