THE HDU-404 LIST 2
The HiGain®HDU-404 List 2 is a low-power micro doubler unit that extends the
range of a HiGain repeaterless T1 transmission system. The doubler units are installed
between any doubler-compatible HiGain Line Unit (HLU) and a HiGain Doubler Unit
(HDU) or HiGain Remote Unit (HRU). Each doubler allows 1.544 Mbps transmission
over an additional Carrier Service Area (CSA) range. The HDU-404 is compatible
with both the HiGain and PG-Flex product lines. The CSA includes loops up to
12,000 feet (3.657 km) of 24 AWG or 9,000 feet (2.743 km) of 26 AWG wire.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1Verify that you are installing the HDU-404 List 2 with the following compatible
HiGain outdoor enclosures:
•HRE-450 List 5, single-slot
•HRE-423, 3-slot
•HRE-454, 4-slot
2Verify that you are installing the HDU-404 List 2 with compatible line and
remote circuit modules (see Table 1 inside).
3Determine the number of doublers the circuit can support based upon:
•the model of the HLU and HRU in the circuit (see Table 1)
•whether or not the HRU is locally powered or line powered (see Table 1)
•whether you are installing in a HiGain (see “HiGain Doubler Applications”)
or PG-Flex application (see “PG-Flex Doubler Applications”).
4Observe the following rules for enclosure placement:
•Rule 1: Place the enclosures at the electrical limits (35 dB) of each span.
•Rule 2: Make all spans the same electrical length (same 196 kHz loss) to
achieve optimum performance if Rule 1 is not applicable.
•Rule 3: Confirm that the spans closest to the HLU be as short as possible and
the spans furthest from the HLU be as long as possible to minimize power
consumption and dissipation of the HLU.
5Determine the enclosure capacity based upon solar exposure and maximum
ambient temperature factors as shown in Table 2, “Solar Load and Maximum
Ambient Temperature for Slots 1 through 4”.
