2.8.7  MPT-MC
MPT-MC is similar to MPT-HC from architecture standpoint. MPT-MC has limited capacity vs MPT-HC and 
is natively Ethernet powered.
Two mechanical solutions are adopted:
[1] with embedded diplexer for cost optimisation (6 GHz and from 11 GHz to 38 GHz),  where the 
branching (diplexer) is internal to the MPT-MC cabinet; this type of MPT-MC is identified by one 
Logistical Item only;
[2] with external diplexer: due to a vary high number of shifters the diplexer is external for the flexibility 
of the shifter customization (7 GHz and 8 GHz), where MPT-MC is composed by two independent 
units: the BRANCHING assembly (containing the diplexer) and the RF TRANSCEIVER assembly 
(containing the RF section);  each of this type of MPT-MC is identified by two Logistical Items, one 
for the BRANCHING assembly and another for the RF TRANSCEIVER assembly. To read the 
BRANCHING assembly identification label it is necessary to separate the BRANCHING assembly 
from the RF TRANSCEIVER assembly.
