Capacity upgrade by BTS chaining
The capacity of a Nokia MetroSite BTS installation can be upgraded by
connecting one or two slave BTSs to the master BTS with chaining cables via the
interface units. Up to 12 TRXs can be connected and set up as one BCF unit. Only
the master BTS needs a transmission unit.
Note
All BTS cabinets in a chain must be upgraded to the GSM/EDGE standard.
