2.2 Alliance 2W

L2ROU receives TX optic al signals from ODU or OEU and converts them into R F signals. The
converted RF signals are amplified through High Power Amp in a corresponding L2RDU,
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 L2RDU and sends the r es ults to R emote Optic Module t o make electronic-optical
conversion of them. After converted, the sig nals are sent to a upper device of ODU or OEU.
L2ROU can be equipped with up to three L2RDUs (Remote Drive Unit) and the module is
composed of maximal Dual Band.

3.1.3 Optical Cabling

L2ROU makes optical-electronic conversion of TX signals from upper ODU and OEU and makes
electronic- o ptical conversion of RX s ignals. L2ROU has one optical m odule in it. As WDM is
installed in the R_O PTIC module, two pieces of wavelength (TX:1310nm , RX:1550nm) can be
sent/received with one optical core at the same time. L2ROU has SC/APC of optical adaptor type.
For optical adaptor, SC/APC type can be used. T o prevent the optical access p art from being
marred with dirt, it should be covered with a cap dur ing move. When devices are connected
through optical cables, you need to clear them using alcohocol to remove dirt.

Confidential & Proprietary 19/27

Optical cables should be inserted into Optic Port outside of L2ROU. Using an optical slack devices
in L2ROU , you need to coil arou nd one or two roll of c ables to be connected with the optical
adaptor of ROPTIC.
At this time, curvatur e of the opt ical cable sh ould be at leas t 10Ø to prev ent insertion loss from
being increased.
Through GUI, check if PD value of ROPTIC is in a tolerable range (+4~-1dBm).
