Remote Electrical Tilt - RET
 RET system is designed to meet the high requirements
for reliability, flexibility and efficiency in remote control
of tower-mounted telecommunication equipment.
 Optimize network in real time, saving time and costly
site visits.
 Respond quickly to changing traffic needs.
 Experience higher tilt possibility compared to
mechanical tilt.
 Reduces human error with accurate mechanical
control.
 No specialized manpower or equipment needed.
 Ideal for isolated or difficult-to-access sites.

External Hybrid Combiner Unit (ECHU)
 ECHU is designed for high power combining
and distribution.
 When the need for traffic capacity grows, the
EHCU allows a doubling of the number of
carriers without adding antennas or antenna
feeders. Hardware as well as installation and
site fee costs can therefore be kept at a
minimum.
 The EHCU can also be used for in-building
distributed antenna systems.

Tower-Mounted Amplifier (TMA)
 The Tower-Mounted Amplifier (TMA) filters and amplifies
Radio Frequency (RF) signals received by the antenna
before being sent to the RBS.
 Transmission (TX) signals from the RBS are filtered but
not amplified before being sent to the antenna.

Repeater Solution
 With the ever increasing focus of cost vs returns in wireless networks,
repeaters (cell extenders) offer a cost effective solution to operators to
provide coverage at a fraction of standard BTS site costs. Repeaters are
ideal in scenarios where coverage is the prime objective.
 These repeaters are ideally suited for use as a Gap-Filler to optimise
network coverage.

Smart Radio Concept – SRC
4 Way Receiver Diversity
The SRC solution is to cover large rural areas with low capacity
coverage therefore cutting costs of building new sites to complete
the RF plan.
