4. Caveats and concerns for the budget…we will not be covering….
Design requirements for LTE? We are seeing a need to hit LTE at 10 dB hotter than Cell level? …Cell only market???? Need to beat the Cell signal!!!
Not addressing electric/space requirements for new equipment…centralized power?
Not addressing UPS requirements?
Cost drivers of cabling in labor STP, 75 Ohm, 50 Ohm
Will start “within each OEM offering”
Will then invite “out of the box”

5. TE-ADC-LGC Migration Summary
LGCell…..Smithsonian
InterReach Unison….Complete new layer(s)
InterReach Fusion….Single new layer with SISO or MIMO RAU and antenna(s)
InterReach Spectrum (FlexWave Prism)…Should be plug and play with proper DARTs and RAU/Antenna configuration 5

6. InterReach Unison- Full Layer per LTE Stream6

7. InterReach Fusion- Single Cable Layer Upgrade7

8. InterReach Spectrum- Modular Upgrade8

10. Legacy Commscope- Andrew ION-B Summary
Medium Powered Remote Units- New MIMO Booster and Second Stream Coax/Antenna Structure if required
High Powered Remote Units- New MIMO Booster and Second Stream Coax/Antenna Structure if required
Q New 7 Band High Powered Remote includes one stream of LTE- (for Multi-Operator upgrades). Requires full parallel layer for MIMO

11. Andrew ION-B Medium Powered Remotes
Addition of one (1) 700 MHz MIMO TPOI card at Head End Unit.
Addition of one (1) TFBM7/7 MIMO Booster Unit at each remote node (co-located with the TFAM85/19.
Addition of two )(2) Hybrid Combiners at the remote unit to combine the 700 MHz signal with the existing system.
Addition of Four (4) 2-way power splitters at the MIMO Booster to split the MIMO signals from the Booster in order to equalize the number of antennas in Path 1 and Path 2.

12. Andrew ION-B High Powered Remotes
Addition of one (1) 700 MHz MIMO TPOI card at Head End Unit.
Addition of one (1) TFBM7/7 MIMO Booster Unit at each remote node (co-located with the TFAH85/19).
Addition of One (1) Hybrid Combiners at the Remote Unit to combine the 700 MHz signals with the existing system.
Addition of one (1) 2-way splitter/divider at the Mimo Booster

13. Andrew Ion-B High Powered Remotes-Multi Operator
TLCN
Note that the TLCN card (shown above) may need to be changed out if it does not have any spare ports to inject the 700 MHz signals. This change would consist of changing from a TLCN2 to a TLCN4 or from a TLCN4 to a TLCN8. It is also important to note if this change is made, the signal levels to and from the BTS will need to be adjusted as the system gain has changed.

14. Andrew Ion-B High Powered 7-Band Remote- Q2

15. Migrating from Medium to High Powered 7 Band
This table provides a general guideline for replacing existing TFAM85/19 with the TFAH-US7B
In some instances where remotes were remotely powered, local power may be required. The requirements depend on distance and composite cable gauge at the remote

16. MobileAccess Networks Legacy Systems Summary
