Digital channel and band selective off air UHF, Tetra or Tetrapol repeater
Provides full UHF, TETRA and TETRAPOL coverage as part of an Cobham DAS system in buildings, tunnels and metro’s
Supports WDM (wave division multiplexing) technology reducing the requirement for fiber optic cable
High performance and resilient architecture. Redundancy options available
36dBm output power
Can be used to feed a DAS (Distributed Antenna System) to extend coverage further
Multi channel support and flexible DSP based filtering capability
Unique “time slot ALC” mechanism to reduce noise
Extremely low delay improving selectivity and performance
Innovative automatic optical gain capability
Extremely low noise figure & group delay
Compact IP65 weather proofed enclosure passively cooled
Integrated Spectrum Analyzer for both uplink and downlink path
Management via web GUI or Cobham AEM (Cobham Element Manager)
ACMA have tested the D-CSR 3604 and issued a letter of acceptance

The D-CSR 3604 provides quick, cost-effective and secure radio coverage in any mission critical network and can handle up to eight filters within the 5 MHz band. Through the use of the D-CSR 3604 an operator can easily expand a base station’s service area by filling in coverage holes caused by terrain, buildings or tunnels.

The wireless interface permits the operator to remotely configure RF parameters as well as monitor alarms on a continuous basis.

The D-CSR 3604 can also be used to provide coverage in shorter tunnels. Longer tunnels can be covered by connecting the repeater to an OMU (Optical Master Unit) that feeds a number of fibre fed repeaters.

CCobham Wireless was formerly known as Axell Wireless

Electrical Specifications
'The D-CSR3604 can be factory pre-set up to 5MHz U/L and D/L bandwidths for (two frequency and trunked) Land Mobile use within the 403 - 420 MHz and 450 - 520 MHz UHF frequency bands, this approach allows the unit to be used with the majority of the transmit/Receive separation variants allocated.
