MPT-MC (MPR-E)
MPT-MC is similar to MPT-HC V2 from architecture standpoint.
The only differences are:
• MPT-MC cannot be connected in optical -> 100m length cable limitation.
• MPT-MC does not support the XPIC configuration. 
Two mechanical solutions are adopted:
• with embedded diplexer for cost optimisation (6 GHz and from 11 GHz to 38 GHz), 
where the diplexer is internal to the MPT-MC cabinet; this type of MPT-MC is 
identified by one Logistical Item only;
• with external diplexer: due to a vary high number of shifters, the diplexer is external 
for the flexibility of the shifter customization (L6, U6, 7 GHz and 8 GHz), where 
MPT-MC is composed by two independent units: the EXTERNAL DIPLEXER 
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 EXTERNAL DIPLEXER assembly and another for the 
RF TRANSCEIVER assembly. To read the EXTERNAL DIPLEXER assembly 
identification label it is necessary to separate the EXTERNAL DIPLEXER assembly 
from the RF TRANSCEIVER assembly.
