Introduction

The RRU3804 is the outdoor remote radio unit. It is the RF module of the distributed NodeB
and is installed close to the antenna.
The RRU3804 performs modulation, demodulation, data processing, and combination and
division of baseband signals and RF signals.

1.1 Appearance
Figure 1.1.1.I.1.1.1 and Figure 1.1.1.I.1.1.2 show a DC and AC RRU3804 respectively.

*:: As recommended in 3GPP TS25.104, the receiver sensitivity (full band) is measured at the antenna
connector provided that the channel rate reaches 12.2 kbit/s and the Bit Error Rate (BER) is within
0.001.
**: Measurement value of the sub-band at 850 MHz.

2.4 Output Power

The RRU3804 supports four carriers. The maximum output power is 60 W.

The maximum output power equals the maximum output power of the PA minus the internal losses. The
maximum output power is measured at the antenna connector of the RF module.

2.5 Power Consumption

The typical power consumption is the DBS3900 works with a 40% load at 25C ambient
temperature.

The maximum power consumption is the DBS3900 works with a 100% load at 25C ambient
temperature.
