Installation

The Base Module for the MBT-4000
system – which provides the M&C,
Power Supply, and Reference
interfaces – may be located near or
on the antenna. Guide pins and
mechanical clamps keep the band-
specific BUC and BDC modules in
place on top of the Base Module.


Cables to the antenna and IDU complete the installation. For complete information on the
MBT-4000’s connectors, including the pinout tables, refer to Chapter 3. EXTERNAL
CONNECTORS
.

To change the band of operation, the cables to the BUC/BDC modules are disconnected and the
modules are unlatched from the Base unit, allowing removal and replacement of the existing
modules with appropriate band-specific modules.


2.3

Operation

Once all pertinent connections have been made between the MBT-4000 and other equipment,
refer to Chapter 4. SYSTEM OPERATING PARAMETERS for further information.
