Configuring 1+1 HSB with Space Diversity
Note
:
This feature is only relevant for IP-20C. It can be used with all IP-20C
hardware versions.
A 1+1 HSB-SD configuration utilizes two IP-20C units on each side of the link, with
both radio carriers activated. The IP-20C units are combined and connected to the
primary and diversity antennas via a dual coupler and two flexible waveguides.
Radio carrier 2 is muted on each unit. On the receiving side, the signals are
combined in the active unit to produce a single, optimized signal. The link is
protected via external protection, so that if a protection switchover occurs, the
standby unit becomes the active unit, and the link continues to function with full
space diversity.
