2.2 SMDR-NH124

ROU receives TX optical signals from ODU or OEU and converts them into RF signals. The
converted RF signals are amplified through High Power Amp in a corresponding RDU,
combined with Multiplexer module and then radiated to the antenna port.
When receiving RX signals through the antenna port, this unit filters out-of-band signals in a
corresponding RDU an d sends the results to Remote O ptic Module to make electronic -optical
conversion of them. After converted, t he signals are sent to a upper device of ODU or OEU.
ROU can be equipped with up to thre e RDUs (R em ote Drive U nit) a nd the m odul e is com pos ed
