6 RAUs ÷ 8 (maximum 8 RAUs per Fusion SingleStar Hub) = 1 Hub
Check that the CATV cable distances are as recommended. If the distances differ,
use the tables in Section 5.3, “System Gain,” on page 5-11 to determine system
gains or losses. The path loss may need to be recalculated to assure adequate sig-
nal levels in the required coverage distance.
The above estimates assume that all cable length requirements are met. If RAUs can-
not be placed within reach of the Hub, then the InterReach Fusion SingleStar system,
with its longer reach, should be considered.
An RF Site Survey and Building Evaluation is required to accurately establish the
Fusion SingleStar equipment quantities required for the building. The site survey
measures the RF losses within the building to determine the actual PLS, which will be
used in the final path loss formula to determine the actual requirements of the Fusion
SingleStar system.
5.5 Designing for a Neutral Host System
A “neutral host” system supports more than one wireless service provider and typi-
cally supports more than one frequency band and/or protocol. The wireless network-
ing equipment is often owned, installed, and managed by a third or “neutral” party
that serves as the “host” by leasing the equipment to the providers.
Designing for a neutral host system uses the same design rules previously explained.
Since a neutral host system typically uses multiple base stations (BTS). Refer to
Section 6.5, “Interfacing the Fusion SingleStar to an RF Source,” on page 6-22 for
connection options.
