2.4  Radio Configurations
–1+0 
– 1+1 Hot-Standby (HSB) 
• two types of coupler for ODU300: 
– 3 dB/3 dB balanced coupler or 1.5 dB/6.0 dB unbalanced coupler
• two types of coupler for MPT-HC/MPT-MC: 
– 3 dB/3 dB balanced coupler or 1 dB/10 dB unbalanced coupler
– 1+1 Hot-Standby Space Diversity (HSB SD) (no coupler) 
– 1+1/2x(1+0) Frequency Diversity (FD) (co-polar) 
– 1+1/2x(1+0) Frequency Diversity (FD) (cross-polar) 
– 1+0/1+1 XPIC (with MPT-HC V2 only)
N.B. The 1+1 configuration with MPT-MC does not require any interconnection cable between the 
two ODUs. The protection is implemented by the “virtual cable” feature.
N.B. In 1+1 configuration the 2 Outdoor Units must be of the same types.
