wideband interconnect link option, distances of 20km can be reached. Moreover, these

environments require gradual investments, because initially operators tend to provide

radio coverage only in the busiest areas, and then extend it in order to reach complete

coverage later. The modularity of the ION-B helps operators to gradually expand the

system. Often, large cities set up seamless and reliable radio systems for emergency

services. In these cases, the required RF infrastructure needs to be unobstrusive and

environmental friendly; this can be achieved using an ION-B DAS. When redundancy

is required, two interleaved ION-B systems can be used, management and supervision

for these systems can be remotely established by means of an external modem and an

open protocol such as SNMP.
