Antenna Connection
The ODU portion of the GigaPlus utilizes a slip fit connection that makes installation
simple. The ODUs are all designed to mount to a circular waveguide antenna or
combiner with the exception of the 6 GHz models, which require a rectangular
waveguide antenna. For 7 to 40 GHz models, simply rotating the ODU will change the
antenna polarization being used. A compatibility list of antennas is provided in Appendix
E.
Remote Mounting
When using the GigaPlus HP ODUs with antennas that use a rectangular waveguide
interface instead of the slip fit circular waveguide, a Remote Mount plus flex waveguide
will be required. The compatible remote mounts are shown in Appendix E. The
waveguide flanges are available for mounting all standard waveguide sizes.
Combiners for Antenna Sharing
The GigaPlus ODU is designed with an easy slip fit interface to the antenna. If desired,
two units may be connected to the same antenna for 1+1 hot standby application or to
aggregate two channels together for more capacity. Trango can provide multiple
combiner options based on the customer applications as the table shows below:
