o
90 City Center DAS Nodes
Cannot connect up distributed antennas cost effectively
Last fibre drop very time consuming and expensive
The fibre route to street furniture is space constrained and complex
o Solution:
o Use of Robust Ultra-low friction micro duct
o Use of Robust multi-fibre micro cable
o Cable pulled 150m
o Result:
o Installation time reduced by 50%
DAS - Chicago
3/4G Radio-heads
o Problem:
o Radiohead on roof – base-station 10 floors
down in basement
o The fibre route is space constrained and
complex
o Difficulty of installation results in
suboptimum wireless coverage
o Solution:
o Use of Robust Ultra-Low Friction LSZH
micro duct
o Use of Robust 24-fibre micro cable
o Cable pushed from 10th floor
o Result:
o “Impossible” install achieved
“Pretty slick material to say the least”
