MultiCore Mediation Devices (MCMD)
The MultiCore Mediation Devices (MCMD) are designed to offer a simple and compact solution for
a direct mount installation of the dual-carrier PTP 820C on a standard RFU-C antenna.
PTP 820C is equipped with two antenna ports, which mandates the use of the following MCMDs
for direct mount connections. The specific MCMDs depend on the configuration.
The following table describes some of the available MCMDs. For a full list of components, see
Note
MCMDs are not grounded. To add grounding, the MCMD can be connected to the PTP
820C using a Grounding Jumper.
