3 INSTALLING AN EXTENSION RAN (POLE MOUNT)

Two RANs can be installed at the same location to provide up to eight bands at that location using a common antenna. Each RAN requires its own separate power and RF cables and fiber optical cable. Figure 38 shows a typical dual RAN pole mount installation.
