1310 ± 10 nm is used. The maximum output power for the UL and DL is 6.7 mW. 2.2. The ION-M7P/17EHP The ION-M7P/17EHP is a multi-band, multi-operator remote unit configuration used in conjunction with a Master Unit in the ION optical distribution system. By supporting the entire AWS-3 spectrum, faster and more reliable wireless service is ensured and network quality can be improved.
The entire system as well as complete network of systems can be managed remotely most efficiently by Commscope`s A.I.M.O.S, which includes alarm monitoring, task automation, statistics, inventory management and many more features. Should a sophisticated interface not be required, the master unit can be directly connected to the alarm interface of a base station via its contact relay.
When opening the Remote Unit do not damage the warranty labels on the internal devices. The warranty is void if the seals are broken. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by CommScope, CommScope’s general limited product warranty (http://www.commscope.com/Resources/Warranties/) shall be the warranty governing the Remote Units, including the installation, maintenance, usage and operation of the Remote Units.
