As
shown
at
Fig.’s
2.1
and
2.2,
one
strand
of
fiber
is
needed
for
SISO
configuration
but
two
strands
are
needed
for
MIMO
cofiguration
when
connected
with
an
ROU.
Applications
requiring
up
to
32ROU’s
for
SISO
are
possible
with
one
BIU.
Each
SISO
ROU
will
require
an
additional
strand
of
fiber
and
an
additional
32
ROU’s
can
be
added
to
the
same
system
for
MIMO
applications.
MIMO
requires
2
strands
of
fiber
per
ROU
as
well
as
MIMO
specific
ODU’s.
