TETRA MISSION CRITICAL SOLUTIONS

CSFT438 DIGITAL FREQUENCY SHIFTING REPEATER

Large outdoor coverage footprint due to high gain and output power

Extensive remote control and supervision capabilities

Software Defined Radio technology gives low delay and high selectivity

Time slot based Automatic Level Control eliminates near- far effects

Frequency Shifting technology allows very high gain with low antenna isolation

The frequency shifting TETRA repeater can provide a much large coverage compared to a conventional

repeater. This is due to the reduced antenna isolation requirements, which allow higher gain and

consequently higher output power from the repeater.

The CSFT438 is primarily intended for rural area applications, where the terrain conditions normally would

require a large number of base station sites for seamless coverage. The frequency shifting concept is based

on a donor unit CSFT438D, placed near the base station, which connects to the remote unit CSR438R over

the air using free channels within the operational frequency band.

The CSFT438 can distribute 2 or 4 channels from the selected donor base station. The donor unit

CSFT438D can be physically connected to the base station transmit and receive ports through directional

couplers. Both the donor and the remote unit can be remotely controlled and supervised via a built-in

wireless modem.

LMR AND MISSION CRITICAL SOLUTIONS

Axell 3178B 700/800 MHz RF MID-POWER BI-DIRECTIONAL AMPLIFIER

Band selective, mid-power BDA for public safety, In-building and outdoor networks

Dual-band 700/800 MHz in a single unit

Composite power +31dBm

RF SAW filtering

Small footprint and lightweight for easy maintenance

The Axell 3178B is a dual-band 700/800 MHz band selective mid-power bi-directional amplifier in a single

compact unit.

Specially designed for public safety in-door and outdoor networks, the Axell 3178B small footprint and

flexible installation options minimize interference with operations on the floor on which it is installed.

The uplink and downlink path gains can be manually adjusted over a 30dB range. Each path has an AGC

circuit which limits the output power to prevent unwanted signal distortion. A LED indicates when the AGC

limit has been reached.

It can be installed in a rack, mounted on a wall or on the ceiling. Its relatively low weight which allows

mounting and maintenance by a single person, in addition to the simple commissioning procedure that does

not require a high level technician, provides significant savings on labor costs.

DSP based, software-controlled, variable bandwidth filters, user-programmable across the 700 and 800

MHz bands.

Axell 4078D supports all public safety technologies. In addition to specifying the center frequency of each

filter, the user can select a filter from a drop down list that has several choices for each passband that vary

in time delay and filter slope; this gives the engineer the unique ability to trade off the adjacent channel

rejection and time delay interference for the coverage area permitting the use of the Axell 4078D in

applications where no other booster solution will work.

Every parameter of Axell 4078D including filter tuning and selection is software controlled either locally or

remotely via a wireless modem. The control software is the Axell Wireless’ intuitive and user friendly Remote

Management Tool, which is provided with every unit.

The patented Axell Wireless’ digital RF filter not only enables simple initial setup for any channel plan, but if

necessary even permits a simple reconfiguration because of rebanding.

The booster protects against degradation of the system’s sensitivity and coverage thanks to the inbuilt AGC

per-channel feature, which permits equalization of the channel levels for uniform coverage and will

selectively squelch nearby, high power mobiles.

With the new IP65 box, the Axell 4078D can easily be used in both indoor and outdoor applications.

Axell 2408 800 MHz CELLULAR BAND SELECTIVE RF MINI REPEATER

Band-selective mini repeater for GSM, TDMA, CDMA2000TM and UMTS networks

Indoor coverage up to 50,000 square feet

Extended A or Extended B and full-band

SmartALC™ technology

Prevents oscillations and balances coverage

Automatically sets optimum gain

Ensures transparent network operation

The Axell 2408 is a cellular band selective mini repeater. The Axell 2408 supports mixed mode transmissions (e.g. GSM and UMTS or CDMA and EVDO) to support simultaneous voice and data. The Axell 2408 is available as either extended A (A, A’ and A’’) or extended B (B and B’). This ensures maximum call quality and will support legacy services. Separate IF-SAW filters ensure rejection of the other band. Either option is also capable of supporting the full cellular band. The Axell 2408 includes Axell Wireless’ proprietary SmartALC power control algorithm. SmartALC is more than simple gain control; it automatically optimizes the gain setting by learning the actual range of RSSI levels over a user specified period of time. SmartALC prevents oscillations, reduces the amount of isolation required by the system and optimizes the system to minimize noise rise at the donor cell site. SmartALC allows the installer to quickly set up the unit, yet still achieve the design goals specified by the system engineer. The Axell 2408 features three tri-color front panel LEDs that provide ongoing status and alarm indication. In addition, the DL LED can be used during setup as an RSSI level indicator to help align the donor antenna for optimal performance. The efficient thermal characteristics of the Axell 2408, careful component selection and robust design result in high system reliability.

Axell 819 800MHz AND 1900MHz DUAL-BAND RF REPEATER

Small footprint single unit, band selective repeater for both Cellular and PCS networks

Switchable bandwidth option – user-selectable and tunable across both bands

IF-SAW filtering-tunable sharp out-of-band rejection

SmartALC™ technology

Prevents oscillations and balances coverage

Automatically sets optimum gain

Ensures transparent network operation

The Axell 819 is a band selective repeater that supports both cellular and PCS bands. It is specifically designed for simultaneous two-band operation of cellular 800 MHz and PCS 1900 MHz in a single, cost-effective, space-saving wall unit. The Axell 819 has switchable and tunable IF-SAW filters that allow for very high out of-band-rejection, as well as provide a simple means to adjust the pass band according to network band allocation. The unit is reconfigured with possible PCS frequency blocks of 5, 10, 15 or 20 MHz. One of the three blocks is selected by the user and tuned to the desired frequency during setup. In the cellular band it is possible to select one state out of two possible options which cover the cellular band options. Independent tuning and retuning or activation and deactivation of the block filters can be controlled with both a local and remote control system. With this flexibility in the cellular and PCS bands, the Axell 819 can accommodate the frequency block configuration in most US markets and can be easily reconfigured if the local cellular or PCS band plan changes. The Axell 819 includes Axell Wireless’ proprietary SmartALC power control algorithm. SmartALC is more than simple gain control – it automatically optimizes the gain setting by learning the actual range of RSSI levels over a user-specified period of time. SmartALC prevents oscillations, reduces the amount of isolation required by the system and optimizes the system to minimize noise rise at the donor cell site. SmartALC allows the installer to quickly set up the unit, yet still achieve the design goals specified by the system engineer. The Axell 819 panel LEDs, in addition to providing ongoing status and alarm indication, can be used during setup as an RSSI level indicator to help align the donor antenna to the donor cell site. Axell 819 supports intuitive web management GUI that can be accessed using any standard browser through a local or remote connection (no client installation required). Axell 819 remote monitoring and control is implemented by an integrated wireless modem and a controller supporting SNMP.

The new Digital Multi-Band Repeater (D-MBR) from Axell Wireless is a flexible, multi-band coverage solution optimized for in-building applications. The D-MBR is based on the Axell Wireless’ innovative digital filtering technology which support current and future frequency allocation. Up to four different frequency bands can be implemented in one repeater casing. The solution can be equipped with modules covering the 700MHz, 850MHz, 1700MHz and 1900MHz bands. For each of these frequency bands, the D-MBR can provide selection and amplification of up to 12 sub bands of programmable bandwidth with the new software defined filtering module. Using an advanced ALC mechanism each one of the sub bands has an individual gain and ALC setting. The Digital Mulitband repeater has a separate module for each frequency band. This architecture allows redundancy, i.e. failure in one of the band modules will not have any impact on the other band modules. Dedicated DSP per band allows the support of full bandwidth for each band without any limitation. The D-MBR is connected to one donor antenna placed on the roof of a building and the radiating coaxial cable or antennas in the area to be covered. Configuration and monitoring of the D-MBR can be done through an intuitive web management GUI, either locally or remotely via a wireless modem. With the Axell Wireless advanced supervision and control software, the entire fleet of digital multi-band repeaters can be monitored.

OMU

Optical Master Unit The Optical Master Unit (OMU) is used to convert signals from RF to light when fiber fed repeaters are used. The OMU is most often connected to a base station. In these cases, an RF coupler is used to couple off signals that are fed into the OMU. An entry shelf unit can also be used in cases when the base station and the OMU are not located close to each other. In the downlink direction, the OMU picks up the signal from the base station, converts it into an optical signal and transfers it over a fiber optical cable to the repeater. In the uplink direction the OMU receives the signal from the repeater via the fiber optical cable, converts it to a RF signal and sends it back to the base station.

AUTOMATIC OPTICAL GAIN SETTING The fiber optic system Axell Wireless has designed puts a clear focus on user friendliness and ease of installation and commissioning. Through an automatic optical gain setting, the commissioning is easily performed, thus reducing the time it takes to put the equipment in service. This also means that the training is significantly simplified and the need for installation effort is decreased.

RELIABILITY IN SECURITY NETWORKS TETRA is often used in security critical applications and Axell Wireless has therefore made reliability and redundancy a key element in its design of fiber optic systems. By using what is often referred to as a star typology, each remote unit has its own direct fiber connection to the OMU. One dedicated single fiber, carrying both UL and DL signals (WDM or Wavelength Division Multiplexing technology), is then used to serve each remote unit. Although it is preferable to use this type of configuration, a chain configuration where the signal in the DL is coupled off to several remote units is also possible to realize when there is a shortage of fiber.

EXPANDABLE SOLUTION Each OMU can be equipped with up to six optical modules and therefore support up to six fiber-fed remote units. If additional repeaters are to be fed from the same base station, it is simple to expand the system with additional OMU units that in total will support up to 24 fiber-fed remote units.

REMOTE SUPERVISION Only one modem is needed to communicate with an OMU and its fiber fed repeaters. The modem types available are GSM, PSTN, TCP/IP and even GSM-R. The modem is found inside the OMU and communication with the fiber fed remote units is transparently handled via the fiber that connects them. The system can be managed via the Axell Wireless Repeater supervision and remote control software tool, AEM (Axell Wireless Element Manager). All communication between the OMU and the repeaters – both data communication and the transferred RF signal – is managed over the same fiber link, which results in a very reliable supervision of the radio link. The OMU supports VHF, TETRA, TETRAPOL, GSM-R, UMTS and GSM900, GSM1800 ,1900MHz and 2600MHz frequency bands and is always used in combination with one or several fiber fed repeater(s).

UHF FIBER FED REPEATER

BSF424 FIBER OPTIC REPEATER

Supports the use of Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology resulting in a limited need for fibers.

Remote supervision and alarm handling in the BSF424 is realized through the fiber connection via the OMU unit’s modem or optional via built in modem

The unique combination of high output power and highly linear power amplifiers ensures large coverage with uniformly excellent signal quality

The BSF424 can optionally be upgraded with a second optical transceiver module for redundant fiber applications

The BSF424 is a fiber optic fed UHF repeater. The repeater is part of a system that is fed from an Optical

Master Unit (OMU). The maximum optical loss allowed for is 10 dB of fiber between the OMU and the most

distant last remote unit that the OMU supports. This offers great flexibility when providing RF coverage in

areas where it is not possible to rely on off air transmission. The fiber optic system is easily remotely

monitored and controlled by Axell Wireless effective supervision tool, Axell Wireless Element Manager.

AUTOMATIC OPTICAL GAIN SETTING

The optical gain is adjusted in the downlink chain by measuring the level of the pilot carrier sent from the

OMU. The level of the received pilot carrier is continuously monitored.

NETWORK MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL

RMC and AEM Complete Network Management Axell Wireless supplies two powerful software tools - RMC and

AEM - for the configuration and management of repeaters either

singly or in networks. Both applications are Windows™ based

and run on Windows 2000 and Windows XP. The AEM can also

be run on Windows 2003 Server. RMC – Repeater Maintenance Console

The RMC is a software tool designed to support on-line communication with repeaters, simplifying their

installation and control. The tool is used primarily at commissioning of repeaters on site, but also as a tool

for on-line monitoring and trouble shooting of repeaters.

All repeater parameters can be displayed through a user-

friendly graphical interface and all settings in the repeater

can be made via the RMC. Dynamic information, such as

traffic utilization, input and output power levels are updated

continuously which makes the RMC an excellent help for

example at antenna installations and other adjustments in

the system.

The RMC communicates with one repeater at a time,

either via a RS232 interface directly into the repeater or via

remote access via modem. All repeater parameters can be

displayed and all settings in the repeater can be made via

the RMC. Dynamic information, such as traffic utilization, input and output power levels are updated

continuously which makes the RMC an excellent help for example at antenna installations and other

adjustments in the system.

User friendly Windows based interface

Provides an online status report of the repeater configurations

Excellent for troubleshooting applications

Configurations can be adjusted on a site-by-site basis.

Traffic monitoring via the RMC, the repeater firmware is automatically updated to the latest version in use.

AEM – Axell Element Manager

Central Management All repeaters in a network can be managed from a central location;

parameters can be read, alarms monitored and configuration changes made.

Network Optimization The AEM can be used as a tool for network optimization; repeater traffic reports are stored in a database

where they can be interrogated to optimize the network based on utilization statistics.

Excellent Overview The network elements can be presented either on geographical maps or in logical tree structures where the

relationship between network elements are made clear which can be a valuable tool when it comes to

network planning and troubleshooting

The AEM is a complete operations and maintenance software application designed to supervise and control

repeater networks. It is an advanced yet user-friendly application that gives easy access to all information

about a network. Each repeater or element can be monitored separately or the whole network can be

presented in one overview chart.

The network elements can be assigned to geographical maps to further enhance the overview of the

installation. A logical tree shows the relationship and hierarchical build-up between the network elements -

this includes both base stations and repeaters. Alarm sources indicate if faults have occurred in any of the

repeaters and an extensive reporting tool enable optimized planning of the network’s coverage.

A repeater can be fully monitored and controlled via the AEM. In the status

window parameters such as channel numbers, uplink and downlink peak

power, status of different repeater parameters, external alarms, etc. are

displayed.

Other windows display hardware configuration, alarm log, sent messages

log, traffic and heartbeat log.

A network is configured by adding repeaters to it, placing them on a

geographical or logical map and also placing them structurally in the system

and finally by configuring the AEM repeaters settings.

These settings are phone numbers, report intervals, etc. Base stations can

also be included in the network. They can be configured geographically and

structurally in the AEM, but need no other configuration.
