Radio Modules (NCU, SCU, and RU)

All radio modules have the same form factor for
convenient mounting; however, the internal configuration
differs. The radio is typically mounted outside and
preferably as high as possible to provide the best
coverage. Its chassis is fully sealed and protected to
withstand harsh environments. A plastic radome is
provided to protect the radio and optional GPS antennas
against impact. The radome can be removed when
externally mounted antennas are required.

Each radio supports four communication ports (COM1 to
COM4). Interface to the radio is through two rugged 12-
pin connectors J1 (COM3) and J2 (COM1 & COM2), as
shown in Figure 1-1 on page 1-6.

The radio is available in two different models

Model # 1 with COM1 set as Ethernet
