150-409-115-05, Issue 5 Overview

OVERVIEW

The HiGain® EDU-409 List 1 List 1 is a low-power doubler unit that extends the range of a HiGain repeaterless G.703 transmission system. The doubler units are installed between any doubler-compatible HiGain E1 Line Unit (ELU) and HiGain E1 Doubler (EDU) or HiGain E1 Remote Unit (ERU). They allow 2.048 Mbps transmission over twice the normal High Capacity Digital Service (HCDS) range.

Adding a doubler can double the HCDS range to approximately 7.32 km (24,000 feet) of 0.51-mm wire or 5.49 km (18,000 feet) of 0.4-mm wire loops. Two doublers can triple the HCDS range to 10.97 km (36,000 feet) of

0.51-mm wire or to 8.22 km (27,000 feet) of 0.4-mm wire loops. Three doublers extend the 0.51-mm wire range to 14.6 km (48,000 feet).
