GENERAL INFORMATION
PS-MP is a dual port digital transport platform supporting public safety coverage on fibre
optic cable using the CPRI protocol. It adopts Feed-Forward Technology, allowing for
deployment of legacy narrow band solutions while still benefiting from the digital
transmission and filtering functionality. This platform is ideal for P25, DMR, PMR, GSM-R &
Tetra technology either as standalone or complimentary with wideband cellular deployments.
The PS-MP system supports programmable band or channel selective. The PS-MPsupports
up to 37 dBm output per ban. The PS-MP converts an optical signal to RF and then transmits
at the relevant band and receives the analog RF signal, conditions it, and converts it back to
optical for routing to the PS-AU.
