CHANNEL SELECTIVE REPEATER


for GSM Networks

MR741

Mikoms MR741 is a GSM channel selective repeater which bi-directionally amplifies signals between multiple mobiles and a single base station in the PCS1900 frequency band. It is employed where poor topological conditions cause weak field strengths. It can provide highly selective amplification of channels in the PCS1900 band. MR741 modules can also be combined with other repeater modules in order to create a multi-band repeater system. Modules operating in GSM1800, GSM900, AMPS800 or iDEN bands are available. When different modules are combined a common antenna and control interface are available. The MR741 can be set-up locally or remotely. A PCMCIA slot for modem operation is an available option. The repeater has a large number of functions that can be monitored and changed by the operators via a terminal emulation program or the MIKOM OMC software platform. An easy to understand and simple to learn communication language is available to help the operator query status reports from the repeater or to change settings.

The MR741 is available in two different cabinets (see table below). The F cabinet is able to hold a 2 channel system and is upgradeable to an 8 channel system through an external cablebridge between the 2 channel cabinets. A combination of PCS1900 with other bands such as AMPS800 or GSM900 is possible. A large cabinet that accommodate up to four modules is also available.
