System Topology
The system topology illustrates the connectivity between the Primary A3, Expansion Units (E3-O), and Remote Units (N3RU). The diagram shows how multiple bands and MIMO configurations can be supported across the system, with cascading capabilities for E3 and N3 units.
A typical system includes a Primary A3 unit receiving signals from network management systems and distributing them via fiber to E3-O units. These E3-O units then connect to N3RU units, which handle the RF conversion and transmission. Secondary A3 units can also be incorporated to expand band support.
Regulation
The system complies with FCC, UL62368-1, and UL 2043 standards.
