RBS 6000 Brief Overview

RBS 6102

RBS 6102 is the large outdoor macro RBS providing a complete radio
site including transport equipment, site power, 4U transport equipment
and battery backup. The cabinet can house up to two radio shelves,
two battery strings, thus designed for high capacity demands.

RBS 6101

RBS 6101 is the small outdoor macro RBS. The cabinet can house
one radio shelf and has space for power and transport. The RBS
6101 can also be used as a site support cabinet when Main-Remote
is used. RBS 6101 can fit high capacity multistandard MR with power
and battery back-up to the entire MR RBS.

RBS 6000 Brief Overview

RBS 6102

RBS 6201 is an indoor cabinet that can house two radio shelves as
well as the transport equipment and site power supply needed for an
entire RBS site. Thus, this is a complete site for high capacity
demands integrated into one cabinet. The cabinet is containing two
radio shelves that provides flexible radio capacity.

RBS 6601

RBS 6601 is a very small indoor main unit that can be inserted into
standard 19” racks already deployed at the site.
19” Plug-in Main Unit.

RBS 6000 Brief Overview

RRU
Radio Remote Units, RRU are the naming of the radio designed to be
mounted near the antenna to minimize the feeder loss, which gives
drastically reduced site power consumption. The baseband controlling
the RRU can be deployed either in macro enclosures (E.G RBS 6101,
6301 or in the 19” RBS 6601.

RBS 6301

RBS 6301 can be used as a low capacity macro, a very compact

high capacity main unit for single standard or multi standard main-
remote sites or as a micro.
