Why Choose Active Trays over Passive Trays?
Passive Solution Active Solution
The ASPOI DAS
Tray Solution
provides many
more options than
the Passive
Solution, and with
SYM, it really isn’t
that much more
expensive

Advanced Features
• It handles up to 48dBm on High Power Mode and 38dBm
on Low Power mode with insertion loss of 12.0 to 13.5dB
for High Power Mode and 2.0 to 3.5dB for Low Power
Mode respectively.
Dual Power
Mode
• With integrated CW tone generation, it streamlines CW
test procedures without walki-talking between two
installers, significantly reducing DAS commissioning time
CW Tone
Generator
• In case of power failure, the active SPOI bypasses to
safe mode to ensure continuous service. Downlink will
maintain same path loss before DC power off and Uplink
will have 7.5dB insertion loss always when DC power off.
Safe Mode
• Each card has a physical monitoring port for both Uplink
and Downlink, eliminating the need to but couplers or test
ports in you link
