Uses Industry Standards
LG
Cell
’s use of industry standards and standard equipment offers high reliability
and low cost.
• Complies with industry standards for IS-19-B/AMPS, J-std-8, IS-136/TDMA,
IS-95/CDMA, ETSI 300 609-4/GSM (CE marked), and iDEN.
• Utilizes the TIA/EIA 568-A Ethernet cabling standards for ease of installation
(see
Appendix A – Cables, Connectors, and Accessories).
• Distributes signals over a building’s existing industry-standard cable
infrastructure of MMF and UTP/STP cable.
• Complies with UL and FCC or CE mark requirements.
• Primarily constructed with highly reliable industry-standard components
produced in high-volume for the LAN and wireless industries. High quality
and reliability are assured.
Minimal Design, Installation, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting
• Site engineering is simplified since compensation for cable loss and amplifiers
do not need to be designed into the system, which saves precious RF
Engineering time and support.
• Using standard cabling reduces installation to simple equipment mounting and
cable connection.
• Centralized hub locations facilitate maintenance, upgrades, and adaptability to
new standards.
• The LGC
ell
’s star configuration eases troubleshooting – it is immediately clear
if an RAU is faulty.
• LGC
ell
provides full Operations Alarm Maintenance and Provisioning
(OAM&P). The Main Hub senses major alarms through contact closure. These
alarms can be sent to remote locations. (For information on the Alarm Report
Monitor, see
Appendix E – Alarm Report Monitor (ARM2000)
.)
