Operation Description: The MCPA-2100-125 Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier is designed to supply a nominal output power level of 120 Watts (+50.8 dBm). Although the gain of the MCPA is fixed, the output can be adjusted by setting the input power level. Operation and Installation Instructions: The following instructions should be followed when installing the unit in service: • Apply a 30-34 VDC input voltage to the DC Input connector of the AWS 120W Multi- Carrier Power Amplifier Module. • Insure that the DC Source is capable of delivering up to 15 Amps at 32 VDC. • Apply a UMTS/HSPA signal up to +9 dBm to the RF Input port of the Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier Module. Note: “System Level” usage (see typical site installation block diagram on page 2) is based on the input signal from the BTS being +46 dBm. If a directional coupler with a -30 dB forward coupled port is used as the input to the AWS 120W MCPA Module, then the signal level out of the coupled port is +16 dBm. Finally, there is a variable attenuator set to 6 dB is placed prior to the MCPA Module. This drops the input level to the Amplifier to approximately +9 dBm including the Attenuator and any Cable losses. Note: A variable attenuator is called out in case the coupler used has a different value for its coupled port, or the cable losses vary. Remember, the maximum input to the Amplifier is +9 dBm. • The Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier Module will provide approximately 42 dB or less of RF Gain. • Check the RF Output to insure proper output power is present. {Approximately 125 Watts (+51 dBm)} • Adjust the input power level to insure the output power level is in compliance with the values indicated in the table on page 2. • Install the Alarm Connector to the Alarm Output connector of the Multi-Channel Power Amplifier Module.

The user must adjust the RF input power to the AWS MCPA Amplifier such that the RF output power level does not exceed the levels shown below in order for the RF output spectral emissions to be compliant with the FCC spurious emissions limit of -13 dBm outside of the assigned frequency block. These levels must not be exceeded. The total output power at the antenna terminal output of the device must not exceed the peak output power of 125.9W. *Note: The Maximum RF Output Power is after any passive losses after the MCPA Module such as filters and cables. This equipment complies with Part 24 of the FCC rules. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. In order to comply with FCC rules for RF exposure, it must be observed that the antenna connected to this equipment be fixed on an outdoor structure and that it must have a minimum separation distance of 10 meters between it and any person. 30dB Coupler Diplexer AWS BTS Tx/RxMRxD TMA +6dB Atten AA ANT T +51dBm Output 2100 MCPA +9dBm Input Max AA ANT T ANT Tx Rx TMA +46dBm, +16dBm +9dBm +51dBm +50.7dBm Center Channel Frequency (MHz) Maximum RF Output (Watt)* 2110 - 2155 117.5

General Information CCI’s new High Efficiency Multi‐Carrier Power Amplifier (MCPA) is the most efficient (greater than 25%) MCPA available. OPEX is reduced significantly in comparison to traditional Feed‐ Forward MCPAs. This MCPA Module employs a new Digital Pre‐Distortion amplifier design with high power density for a very compact unit. The MCPA Module is optimiz e d for UMTS and HSPA, allowing multiple channels to be combined on high capacity sites to reduce the required number of feeders while improving coverage. General Info 1 Technical Description 1 Electrical Specifications 2 Mechanical Specifications 2 Ordering Information 2 Contents Model MCPA-2100-125 AWS 120W High Efficiency MCPA Module for UMTS and HSPA+ Tel: 201‐342‐3338 www.cciproducts.com Technical Description CCI’s Cell Extender employs a highly efficient Digital Pre‐Distortion (DPD) MCPA design that deliv‐ ers upward of 25% module efficiency. The DPD architecture reduces the number of components and increases amplifier reliability. An internal microprocessor circuit controls all functions, main‐ tains long term (thermal) and short term (distortion) functions, and generates status and alarms. An auto‐reboot feature will aut omatically restart the MCPA module in case of power interrup‐ tions. Fans are alarmed and hot swappable, requiring only common tools for replacement. CCI’s proprietary DPD circuit also reduces current consumption during low traffic periods. Dry contact alarms are provided for simple interface to existing ba se station alarm repo rting circuits. The Cell Extender coherent combining architecture increases the total system power and effi‐ ciency by enabling both the base station power and the Cell Extender power to be transmitted concurrently thus eliminating any unnecessary attenuation of input power. The Cell Extender also provides complete pass thru of DC and AISG signa ls from the BTS or can optionally be configured with the CCI AISG compliant Dual Tower Mount Amplifier (DTMA) and Site Control Unit (SCU).
