3.5 Configuration of the DCU
The configuration of the DCU depends on the number of needed base stations and
handsets within the DECT6000 system, which is determined by the coverage test.
A standard DCU can connect up to 8 base stations. Expansion of the system is possible
by installing an extension card into the DCU and/or linking two DCUs to each other
(linked system, see chapter 10). Possible configurations are shown below in table 3.1.
The DCU has one or more (max. 8) Analogue Connection Units (ACU) because each
handset needs also a connection with the PABX to make a telephone call.
Note
The maximum distance between two DCUs is determined by the cable
length of the link cable, which is 1 metre.
