1.1

FOREWORD

The equipment is in compliance with the following standards:

EN 301 489-4 for EMC

ITU-R F386 and CEPT REC(02)06 for RF channelling

EN 302 217 for fixed digital radio links

EN 300 132-2 power supply characteristics

EN 300 019 climatic characteristics (in operation: class 3.2 for IDU and class 4.1 for ODU; storing:
class 1.2; transport: class 2.3).

EN 60950 for the operator safety.

1.2

CHARACTERISTICS

The reported values are guaranteed if not specifically defined otherwise.

1.2.1

Versions

Two versions of ODU are available: ODU AS and ODU ASN. The two versions are similar. Differencies will
be pointed out.
Regarding ODU ASN, the units without isolator have SIAE code GE9xxx, the units with isolator have
SIAE code GE8xxx.

a. The typical values are achieved with 48 Vdc of input power voltage. For ALplus2 IDU the power
consumption refers to the equipment loaded with traffic on Ethernet and 16xE1 interfaces. For
ALCplus2 the power consumption refers to the IDU with Ethernet and 16xE1 interfaces fully loaded.
In ALCplus2 1+1 (all version) the two power connectors are in parallel.

Hybrids

The ODU units of a 1+1 system with single antenna are coupled to the antenna by means of an hybrid,
available in different versions, whose branching losses are listed here below.
-

1+1 hot stand-by


-

balanced hybrid

Tx losses < 4dB


Rx losses < 4dB

unbalanced hybrid

Tx losses < 1.7/7dB


Rx losses < 1.7/7dB
