Remote Access Unit Connectors
5.2 Remote Access Unit Connectors
5.2.1 50 Ohm Type-N Connector
The RAU has one female type-N connector (two female type-N connectors for
FSN-W1-1921-1, FSN-W2-808519-1, FSN-W2-7070-1, FSN-W2-7575-1, and
FSN-2500-2-WMAX RAUs). The connector is a duplexed RF input/output port that
connects to a standard 50Ω passive antenna using coaxial cable.
5.2.2 75 Ohm Type-F Connector
The RAU has one type-F female connector that connects it to a Fusion Wideband
Hub using CATV 75 Ohm cable. Use RG-59, 6, or 11 solid copper center conductor
cables.
NOTE: For system performance, it is important that you use only low loss,
solid copper center conductor CATV cable with quality F connectors that use
captive centerpin conductors. Refer to Appendix A for specific information.
5.3 RAU LED Indicators
Upon power up, the RAU goes through a two-second test to check the LED lamps.
During this time, the LEDs blink green/green red/red, letting you visually verify that
the LED lamps and the firmware are functioning properly.
NOTE: Refer to Section 9 for troubleshooting using the LEDs.
Status LEDs
The RAU status LEDs can be in one of the states shown in Table 5-3. These LEDs
can be:
off
steady green
steady red
There is no off state when the unit’s power is on.
