In general, HiGain systems:
•
Operate with any number of other T1, POTS, Digital Data Service (DDS), or other HiGain systems sharing
the same cable binder group.
•
Can be used with customers requiring DS1 service on a temporary or permanent basis.
•
Provide a means of quickly deploying service in advance of fiber-optic transmission systems.
With a HiGain system, service can be provided within hours. Fiber-optic systems can be installed incrementally
and cut over from the installed HiGain system when convenient to do so.
HiGain Doubler Applications
For applications without doublers, the HLU-388 is directly connected to the HRU by the two HDSL cable pairs.
The HLU-388 List 5 is compatible with all HiGain HRUs.
For doubler applications, one to four doublers may be used in the HDSL loops between the HLU and HRU.
•
If the HRU is line-powered, the HLU-388 List 5 can power three doublers and a remote unit (HRU-402 or
HRU-411) for a total of four spans.
•
If the HRU is locally powered, the HLU-388 List 5 can power up to four doublers for a total of five spans.
Personal Communications System Applications
The HLU-388 List 5 is required for PCS applications that use the HRU-411. The HRU-411 has an onboard
130 Vdc, 8.5 W power supply that can power the 200 mW PCS remote radio ports. The line unit recognizes the
HRU-411 (if the CPE power switch is set to ON) and performs the following two functions required by the
HRU-411 to bring up the National Electrical Code (NEC) radio port:
•
Increases the HDSL line voltage to its high ±112 Vdc level with the PWRF option set to AUTO
•
Enables HRU-411 to turn on its 130 Vdc radio port supply
These extended ranges are only available when using the HDU-409, HDU-404, or HDU-407
microdoublers with the HRU-411 or HRU-402. Older doublers (HDU-451, HDU-439, and HDU-437)
cannot be used in circuits with more than two doublers in any line or local power system. For
compatibility guidelines on mixing newer doublers with older HRU and HLU models, refer to
“HiGain Doubler Circuit Deployment” on page 63
.
For additional information about associated HiGain equipment, refer to the respective HiGain
technical practice (see
“Appendix D - Product Support” on page 65
