MTR3000 Radio Frequency Distribution System (RFDS) Equipment: Description 9-3
9.1.1.3 External Dual Circulator Tray
An option for the MTR3000 Base Station/Repeater is an External Dual Circulator module which
isolates the base station/repeater from the antenna, thus reducing the transmitter generated
intermodulation. The circulator load dissipates reflected power. It includes a cable that connects to
the RF Peripherals port on the base station/repeater backplane interface board to provide
temperature monitoring in identifying antenna problems.
