Line Unit HLU-388 List 5 is the Central Office (CO) side of a repeaterless
T1 transmission system. When used in conjunction with a HiGain Remote Unit (HRU), the system provides
1.544 Mbps transmission on two unconditioned copper pairs over the full Carrier Service Area (CSA) range. The
CSA includes loops up to 12,000 feet of 24 American Wire Guage (AWG) wire or 9,000 feet of 26 AWG wire,
including bridged taps. This line unit can be used with HiGain Doubler Units (HDUs) to extend reach.
