2.9   GSM BCCH Antenna Cabling (GSM only) 
In GSM base station installations the WLS requires a forward channel RF signal connection for 
BCCH synchronization. The WLS GSM port may be connected to an interior whip antenna, an 
exterior whip antenna, or a BTS monitor port (existing or via an installed directional coupler). 
Signal levels at the WLS shall be maintained between -40dBm and -90dBm. One cable shall be 
provided to the WLS. If separate BCCH monitor ports are used for each sector, the sector 
signals shall be summed together (e.g. using a 3x1 splitter) to a single RF cable for input to the 
WLS. 
Connect the BCCH antenna cable to the GSM port on the rear of the WLS.
