1 System Overview
Zinwave’s UNItivity 5000 in-building wireless solution provides cellular and public safety access
services to buildings, campuses, and venues, delivering end-to-end all fiber service on a single
converged system. Zinwave’s unique wideband architecture supports any service mix, protocol, or
modulation scheme over a wide frequency range. The 305-XXXX product components cover 150 MHz
to 2700 MHz, and the 306-XXXX product components cover 3300 MHz to 4200 MHz
.
UNItivity 5000
provides RF coverage over large areas and supports a multitude of wireless and IP data services,
irrespective of carrier frequency or signal protocol.

•
Remote Unit
•
Configuration Graphical User Interface (GUI) - supplied on Primary Hubs
•
Central 48V DC Power Supply (Optional)
– used for powering any Remote Units directly
connected to Primary Hub
The system’s network infrastructure uses standard structured cabling, broadband Single-mode optical
fiber.
1.1 How Does It Work?
At a high-level, the standard solution provides a complete in-building wireless infrastructure with a few
core components. Radio Frequency (RF) source inputs come into the Primary Hub’s Service Module
directly or indirectly. The Primary Hub converts these RF signal inputs to optical and connects via
optical fiber directly to Remote Units or through a Secondary Hub. The Secondary Hub connects up to
8 Remote Units via optical fiber to one optical slot of a Primary Hub. The Remote Units connect to
antennas, taking the optical signal back to RF and amplifying it for wider distribution.
