Network Applications
 The ZXRAN V9200 supports the star or

chain networks with RRUs through
optical fibers.
 Star network: Each RRU is connected to
the ZXRAN V9200 in point-to-point
mode. This networking mode has higher
reliability, but requires more
transmission resources. It is applicable to
more densely populated areas.

Network Applications
 Chain network: Multiple RRUs are connected into a chain, and then connected to the ZXRAN
V9200. This mode requires fewer transmission resources, but has less reliability.
