As mobile usage continues to increase, service providers are faced with the challenge of optimizing and expanding their wireless networks to provide new and existing services. ADC’s ClearGain Ground-Mounted Amplifiers (GMAs) minimize the cost of network expansion and improve quality of service, allowing service providers to increase profitability from new and existing services.
Due to the tradeoff between bit rate and bandwidth inherent to data services, improved signal quality is required to achieve the same level of performance at even higher data rates. ADC’s ClearGain GMAs help provide this improvement in signal quality. ClearGain GMAs improve signal quality by boosting the uplink (RX) signal of a mobile system. GMAs perform this amplification with the lowest possible noise contribution, resulting in a substantial increase in receiver performance and an improvement in overall coverage. These improvements in QoS allow...

ClearGain Ground-Mounted Amplifiers ® DD1900 Full Band with DD800 Diplexer The DD1900 Full Band with DD800 Diplexer GMA amplifies the full 1900 MHz band to maximize signal quality and optimize coverage while passing through the 800 MHz band without amplification. This allows the 1900 MHz system to be amplified without affecting the existing 800 MHz system. The ClearGain DD1900 Full Band with DD800 Diplexer GMA features a slim, modular system that can be used in a three sector BTS or an Omni BTS. The amplification module is only 2RU high. Therefore, an entire GMA configured for a three-sector BTS will only take up 7RU in a 19" rack. 1900 Antenna Base Station w w w . a d c . c o m • + 1 - 9 5 2 - 9 3 8 - 8 0 8 0 800/1900 Antenna Diplexer...
