Flexi Multi Radio BTS
.
Flexi Multiradio brings the following changes when compared to Flexi EDGE
Base Station:-
The radio technology is changed from single carrier power amplifiers to multi
carrier power amplifiers. No external combiners are needed to combine the
different TRX outputs to a common antenna line.
The interconnection between the system module and the radio module is
changed from Ethernet based electrical connection as in the Flexi EDGE BTS
to optical OBSAI connection as in Flexi WCDMA BTS. Thus Flexi Multiradio
Supports Feederless sites without optical optional converter modules.
Flexi Multi Radio BTS: is a base transceiver station that is part of the Nokia
Siemens Networks Flexi BTS platform for GSM/EDGE, WCDMA, and LTE
networks. It is a multi radio or multicarrier BTS that can use all these network
technologies either in dedicated or concurrent mode of operation.
• The Flexi Multiradio GSM/EDGE System Module provides baseband capacity
for 18 or 36 GSM/EDGE TRXs depending on the version (ESMB or ESMC
respectively).
• There are 3 radio branches in one Flexi Multiradio Radio Frequency module
(FXxx). The TRX capacity of Flexi Multiradio BTS can be modified based on
the traffic by increasing or decreasing the number of TRXs within a Radio
Module branch, or by increasing the number of radio modules. Each radio
module branch supports up to 6 GSM/EDGE TRXs.
• The Radio module can be split into separate cells for multi-operator BTS.
• Flexi Multiradio modules can be installed on a mast or a pole reducing the
antenna feeder line length and thus increases the RF performance.

Flexi BTS Side Covers are available as an optional item.
in the following figures:
Covers FMHA for 3 height units (3U)
Flexi Mounting Kit for Floor, Wall and Pole (FMFA)
Flexi BTS modules are installed on the floor, wall or pole using Flexi Mounting kit
for Floor, Wall and Pole (FMFA). The plinth is required in BTS site installations
without a cabinet and it provides grounding points for BTS and module grounding.
Flexi Power Cables
FPCA 472806A is a 2 m (6.6 ft) dual DC power cable with connectors and IP
seals on the System Module end. The other end is open for connecting to the 90 W
RF Module’s DC connector. The cable requires two available power output
Connectors on the System Module. The cable is used when 90 W RF Modules draw
DC power from a System Module and the total configured output power for all
branches is greater than 180 W. To minimize potential site work, consider future
Expansion when selecting DC cables.
