    2. Introduction Introduction 2.1. Purpose Cellular telephone systems transmit signals in two directions between a base transceiver station (BTS) and mobile stations (MS) within the signal coverage area. If weak signal transmissions occur within the coverage area because of indoor applications, topological conditions or distance from the transmitter, extension of the transmission range can be achieved by means of an optical distribution system.
  • Page 14 2. Introduction The ION is easily set-up and supervised via a graphical user interface (GUI). Remote units can be commissioned through the use of built-in test equipment. An auto- leveling function compensates for the optical link loss making installation easy and quick.
