a: The no-load RHUB power consumption is measured at an ambient

temperature of 25°C (77°F) without pRRUs connected. In typical configuration
scenarios, RHUB power consumption is measured based on the typical pRRU
power consumption at an ambient temperature of 25°C (77°F). In maximum
configuration scenarios, RHUB power consumption is measured based on the
maximum average pRRU power consumption at an ambient temperature of
60°C (140°F). A 10% deviation from the actual measured value exists. The
RHUB power consumption is calculated based on the power cable with the
cross-sectional area of 1.5 mm2 (0.002 in.2).
