About MA1000 The MA1000 provides enterprise level indoor coverage for a wide range of wireless services over a single broadband infrastructure. The MA1000 is a single operator, multi-band system based on combining a number of services, voice and data, and distributing them to each remote location through a common antenna infrastructure.

Introduction to MA1000 System 860 WLAN Solution – The 860 and WCE is a wireless LAN module that provides secure · and centralized connections for 802.11a/b/g Access Points and distributes the wireless services over the same coax and broadband infrastructure as the voice services. All services are combined and distributed through the same antenna broadband infrastructure.
Introduction to MA1000 System Configuration Options The MA1000/Add-on system includes three basic configuration options: A) Basic configuration The Base Unit drives a single or dual band, MA 1000 RHU. The dual band RHU consists of a low band service (cellular 800, iDEN, Paging, or GSM 900) and a high band service (PCS 1900 or DCS 1800).
MCT – a Java based GUI application provided with both controllers. MCT is used with · the 410 and 430 after the installation procedure to adjust Corning MOBILEACCESS devices according to the installation site characteristics in order to optimize coverage for the site.
This chapter describes the MA1000 system basic elements: remote modules (1000 RHU and Add- on) and the Base Units. Your system may include additional elements such as 410, 430 and SC- 450 controllers, RIUs and 860 WLAN solution units; these are described in the corresponding User Guides.
Preface Material 2.1.1.1 1000 RHU Front Panel The 1000 RHU front panel contains the fiber optic connections to the BU, four coax connections to the antennas, power connections and status indicators. If 1000 RHU and Add-on units are installed, then the combined services are fed to the coax 1000 RHU antenna ports infrastructure through the .
DL to DL, UL to UL. 2.1.2 Add-on The Corning MOBILEACCESS Add-on module is a high power module, supporting a single 1000 RHU frequency band (low or high). It is designed to be integrated with a host module. The 1000 RHU module provides the following functionality for both units: ·...

Preface Material 2.2.1.1 BU Front Panel The front panel contains the optical connections and indicators. The BU is available in two configurations: Four-port - and Eight-port BUs. The eight-port BU consists of two four-port elements where each four-port element has a dedicated set of indicators (PWR, LSR and Link 1 to Link 4 or Link 5 to Link 8).
Preface Material 2.2.1.2 BU Rear Panel The BU rear panel contains the RF, NMS, and power connections. Note that there are two uplink and two downlink RF connections to the BTS side (to an Interface Box or RIU) - each individual uplink and downlink connection corresponds to a four-port BU element.
Preface Material Infrastructure Preparation This following installation rules are based on the assumption that site survey and installation including power requirements planning ( ) have been completed. Installation Requirements The infrastructure preparation consists of two main phases: A. Floor Planning: Planning the distribution of the antennas on each floor to provide the required coverage.
Preface Material 3.3.2 Fiber Optic Rules · Either single mode or multimode fiber can be used with Corning MOBILEACCESS 1000M products, while Corning MOBILEACCESS 1000 products can only be used with single mode fiber. · Only Multimode fiber, 50/125 or 62.5/125um complying with ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B series, EN50173-1 or ISO/IEC 11801 can be used.
