GPS Fiber Optic Antenna Link Supports LTE/4G Rollout and E911 Augmentation

May 2nd, 2012 - Posted in Announcements | New Products | Press Releases

MPS has introduced another offering to the OFW-3478 product line, specifically focused to the wireless industry in support of 4G and LTE build outs. The OFW-3478 is a turnkey solution offering an 8 port and a 16 port version capable of remoting GPS timing signals into the network operations center within a buildings infrastructure. Buildings such as hotels, shopping malls, hospitals, parking garages, and tunnels are often plagued with poor cell phone reception, and require in building distributed antenna systems (DAS).

The OFW-3478 was designed to provide a means to remote the GPS timing signal to the LTE/4G nodes such that the proper timing synchronization can occur  and effectively manage the distribution of the carriers network traffic within the local DAS. Fiber Optic Antenna Links for remoting GPS signals to in-building LTE/4G nodes provides a robust and secure way to solve in-building distributed antenna system (DAS) issues associated with the absence of GPS signals. For more information, please contact MPS at 610-344-7676 and ask to speak with a product engineer.
