SmartPlex models 782 10900 (BTS) / 782 10901 dual-band combiners

The SmartPlex models 782 10900 (BTS)/782 10901 (ANT) are a compact series of intelligent multiprotocol dual-band combiners covering the frequency ranges 380-960 MHz and 1710-2690 MHz while providing a low insertion loss and allowing high input power. They can be powered either via a CCU or a BTS.

Infrastructure sharing is a necessity for many wireless carriers. Operators faced with feedline sharing must contend with the issue of varying communication protocols between antenna line devices (TMAs, RET actuators, etc) and base station equipment, often from multiple manufacturers.

The family enables simultaneous multiprotocol communication transparency for CWA/AISG1.1/AISG 2.0/3GPP and other vendor-specific protocols while allowing RF feeder cable sharing.

Operators implementing the dual-band combiners no longer need to select from models with DC-bypass variants because they offer dynamic DC-bypass functionality and provide the correct DC supply voltage at each mast-head device while managing multiple BTS DC power supplies.
