BSDU DESCRIPTION
This section provides a description of the
Base Station Distribution Unit
(BSDU).
The BSDU is connected to the BSRs by standard CAT-5e cables. Each BSDU can service a maximum
of 8 BSRs. In addition, up to two BSDUs can be daisy-chained at a Base Station, supporting up to
16 BSRs. Therefore, a Base Station at maximum configuration can serve up to 8192 subscribers
(i.e. 16 BSRs multiplied by 512 subscribers).
The BSDU provides a 15-pin D-type port for interfacing with the BSRs, for convenience, a DB15-to-
RJ45 adapter is supplied for attaching to the 15-pin D-type port to allow the use of RJ-45
connectors for outdoor-to-indoor CAT-5e connectivity.
The AS.MAX Base Station Distribution Unit (BSDU) provides an interface between multiple MicroMAX
(BSRs) and the service provider’s backbone. The BSDU provides the following functionalities:
Data switching and aggregation:
o
Data switching between up to eight MicroMAX BSRs over 10/100 BaseT interface
o
Aggregate the MicroMAX BSRs data via two 1000BaseT Ethernet (GE) ports towards the
backhaul/backbone or to cascade to another BSDU
Synchronization:
o
Tx / Rx TDD synchronization for multiple MicroMAX BSRs per BSDU and between inter
and intre connected BSDUs
o
GPS for TDD Tx / Rx synchronization of different BS sites
Power distribution
o
Provides DC power from a single 48 VDC source to eight MicroMAX BSRs
o
AC/DC power converter (optional) - in the event -48 VDC is not available at BS site
Note:
The unit should be powered by 48Vdc (40-54Vdc), 4.5A from safety approved power
supply that its output is SELV and is separated from mains by minimum double/reinforced
insulation.
