MobileAccess™-2000 series provides enterprise level indoor coverage, of a wide range of multi-operator wireless services over a single broadband infrastructure. Front-end wireless RF services are routed, over optic fibers, to MA 2000 series hubs that are securely located in remote telecommunication closets at each remote location. These modular service aggregation platforms precisely combine multiple wireless service signals for simultaneous distribution over a common broadband infrastructure.
Conditioning and monitoring of input RF signals at the head-end through interface to MA-RIU NOTE: MobileAccess is in the process of transition to 2000M products that will support both singlemode fiber and multimode fiber. The new Base Unit is designated by WBM (Wide Band M), and the new RHUs will where the suffix “M”...

Introduction to the MA 2000 System System Architecture For end-to-end control, controllers installed at the head-end provide direct interface to the MA elements and through them, control over the remote end elements. Figure 1-2. System Architecture Figure 1-2 shows a basic block diagram of the system operation. On the downlink, services from the BTS/BDA are transferred via interface to the Base Units (BUs).
Introduction to the MA 2000 System Application Examples Application Examples Figure 1-3 shows an example of an MA 2000 Cabinet based solution. Five services from two different operators are distributed, where services from Operator A conflict with those from Operator B.
Page 16
The converted optical signal is routed from the BUs directly to the corresponding RUs over optic fiber. Services 1 and 2 are distributed through one of the RUs supported by MA 2000 Lite. Services 3 and 4 are distributed through the second RU. The combiner and filter provides interface to the antennas.
MA 2000 Cabinet supports the following functions: • Compactly houses up to five RU 2000 and MA 1200 modules and the required filters NOTE: The number of modules that can be housed depends on the models, required filtering, etc. •...

3.3.2 Fiber Optic Rules • Either single mode or multimode fiber can be used with MobileAccess 1000M products, while 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.
Use coax RG223, 50ohm, male-to-male N-type for RF connections from the BUs to the BTS/RBS and to the RIU. • When using the MobileAccess™ system in an environment in which other indoor coverage systems are installed, it is recommended (where possible) that the antennas are placed at least two meters apart •...
