1.1 FOREWORD

The equipment is in compliance with the following standards:

• EN 301 489-4 for EMC

• ITU-R F386 and CEPT REC(02)06 for RF channelling

• EN 302 217 for fixed digital radio links

• EN 300 132-2 power supply characteristics

• EN 300 019 climatic characteristics (in operation: class 3.2 for IDU and class 4.1 for ODU; storing:class 1.2; transport: class 2.3).

• EN 60950 for the operator safety.

1.2 CHARACTERISTICS

The reported values are guaranteed if not specifically defined otherwise.

1.2.1 Versions

Two versions of ODU are available: ODU AS and ODU ASN. The two versions are similar. Differencies willbe pointed out.

Regarding ODU ASN, the units without isolator have SIAE code GE9xxx, the units with isolator haveSIAE code GE8xxx.

4 AS 8/ASN 8 - MN.00227.E - 004

RF loop is available for ODU AS. An equivalent feature is available on request for ODU ASN.

The ODU units of a 1+1 system with single antenna are coupled to the antenna by means of an hybrid,available in different versions, whose branching losses are listed here below.

- 1+1 hot stand-by

- balanced hybrid Tx losses < 4dBRx losses < 4dB

- unbalanced hybrid Tx losses < 1.7/7dBRx losses < 1.7/7dB

- 1+1 freq. div. (only with double polariz. antenna) negligible losses

- 1+1 with double antenna negligible losses

- 2+0 with double antenna negligible losses

1.2.7 Flange of the waveguide

- Type of flange of the waveguide (radio side) UBR 84

1.2.8 Dimensions and weights

- Physical size of system components see Tab.13
