2.8.7 MPT-MC
MPT-MC is similar to MPT-HC from architecture standpoint. MPT-MC has limited capacity vs MPT-HC and
is natively Ethernet powered.
Two mechanical solutions are adopted:
[1]
with embedded diplexer for cost optimisation (6 GHz and from 11 GHz to 38 GHz), where the
branching (diplexer) is internal to the MPT-MC cabinet; this type of MPT-MC is identified by one
Logistical Item only;
[2]
with external diplexer: due to a vary high number of shifters the diplexer is external for the flexibility
of the shifter customization (7 GHz and 8 GHz), where MPT-MC is composed by two independent
units: the BRANCHING assembly (containing the diplexer) and the RF TRANSCEIVER assembly
(containing the RF section); each of this type of MPT-MC is identified by two Logistical Items, one
for the BRANCHING assembly and another for the RF TRANSCEIVER assembly. To read the
BRANCHING assembly identification label it is necessary to separate the BRANCHING assembly
from the RF TRANSCEIVER assembly.
