ECTION
This signal is used to align the antenna during installation and to
verify that the link is performing as designed. A third test point is
provided to monitor the transmitter output power during system
configuration.
The only connections that must be made in the field are a coax
connection between the BBP and the RFC and a coax connection
between the RFC and the antenna.
The "IF" connector provides the connection between the BBP and
the rack or mast-mounted RFC. (A blue 6-inch IF cable [ADTRAN
part number 3125.001@A] is provided for rack-mount systems.
ADTRAN does not provide IF cable for mast-mount systems.) The
"ANTENNA" connector provides the connection between the RFC
and the antenna.
A block diagram of the RFC functions is shown in the figure below.
