System Overview
2-2 InterReach Fusion Wideband Installation, Operation, and Reference Manual
CONFIDENTIAL D-620616-0-20 Rev E
• Data Protocols: CDPD, EDGE, GPRS, WCDMA, CDMA2000, 1xRTT, EV-DO,
LTE, Paging, and WiMAX
The Fusion Wideband system supports three configurable bands:
• Band 1 in 60 MHz and can be configured for 700 MHz, 800 MHz, 1900 MHz,
2100 MHz, or 2500 MHz
• Band 2 in 75 MHz and can be configured for 1700 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz,
2100 MHz, or 2500 MHz
Both bands support all protocols.
Fusion Wideband remote access units (RAUs) contain combinations of Band 1,
Band 2, and Band 3 frequencies to support various world areas. These frequencies
are 1800 MHz/2100 MHz for Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, or
800 MHz/850 MHz/1900 MHz for North America. Refer to Table 2-4 for a spe-
cific list of supported RAUs.
• Band 3 (only used for North America: FSN-W2-808519-1, FSN-W2-7021-1,
FSN-W2-7070-1, and FSN-W2-7575-1). For example, the FSN-W2-808519-1
RAU Band 3 is a 25 MHz sub-band of the 60 MHz Band and Band 1 is an 18 MHz
sub-band of the 60 MHz Band.
Key System Features
• Multi-Band, supports two or more full band frequencies for spectrum growth.
• Superior RF performance, particularly in the areas of IP3 and noise figure.
• High downlink composite power and low uplink noise figure enables support of
a large number of channels and larger coverage footprint per antenna.
• Software configurable Main and Expansion Hubs allow the frequency bands to be
configured in the field.
• Either single-mode or multi-mode fiber can be used, supporting flexible cabling
alternatives (in addition to standard CATV 75 Ohm cabling). You can select the
cabling type to met the resident cabling infrastructure of the facility and unique
building topologies.
• Extended system “reach.” Using single-mode fiber, fiber runs can be a long as 6
kilometers (creating a total system “wingspan” of 12 kilometers). Alternatively,
with multi-mode fiber, fiber runs can be as long as 500 meters.
• Standard 75 Ohm CATV cable, can be run up to 130 meters for RG-59 cable;
140 meters for RG-6; 235 meters for RG-11 using CommScope 2065V, 2279V, and
2293K cables.
• Flexible RF configuration capabilities, including:
• System gain:
– Ability to manually set gain in 1 dB steps, from 0 to 15 dB, on both down-
link and uplink.
