Westell Technologies has announced a significant enhancement to its Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA) solutions. Westell’s new B90 TMA is a first-of-a-kind solution that re-injects the radio frequency (RF) signal protocol known as AISG (Antenna Interface Standards Group) from the RF base station into the antenna port of the TMA, thus allowing it to be received by both the TMA and the antenna. This feature allows the customer to save on installation time and costs, while improving reliability.
The B90 TMA is an advanced and cost-effective cell site optimization solution. It was engineered to streamline the installation process with one less cable to worry about and optimize signal pass-through. This TMA is carrier approved and will soon to be deployed by the largest and most reputable wireless service provider in the country.
Westell B90 TMA Benefits
- Seamless interoperability with a new generation of Smart-Bias T antennas via AISG signal re-injection in the TMA’s antenna port
- Eliminates the dedicated AISG cable between the TMA and the antenna
- Same field-proven software revision as the already-deployed A90 generation of TMAs
- Fully backward compatible with older non-Smart-Bias-T antennas – includes a dedicated AISG port which can be used as needed – thus one TMA can be deployed for both types of antennas
