5. Confi guration Examples
5.1 Introduction
Examples of ION-B confi gurations are demonstrated in the following pages, showing how the
equipment is able to meet the demands of a variety of different applications, from the easiest
to the most complex.
Some Multi-operator and Multi-sector applications hosted by various ION-B subracks are
explored here, as well as a s simple confi guration hosted by an ION-B Fast Minirack.
5.2. Multi-Operator Applications
Example #1: a 2-operator confi guration, where:
• Operator 1 works with 2 different frequency bands: Band 1, and Band 3.
• Operator 2 works with 3 different frequency bands: Band 1, Band 2 and Band 3.
In this case, Band 1, 2 and 3 correspond to the European band GSM 900 MHz, DCS 1800 MHz,
and UMTS 2100 MHz respectively.
The ION-B confi guration required for such a scenario is shown in Fig. 5.1, and the
corresponding rack confi guration is shown in Fig. 5.2.
Please note that:
• any band where more than one Operator is present, requires a Power Limiter module for
each operator;
• the entire confi guration leads to a 1-sector coverage where all the 3 bands are present,
each one served by all the involved operators;
• such a simple confi guration allows you to use up to 32 ION-B Remote Units (each one
providing 3-band coverage), thus being able to meet the most demanding coverage
demands.
