In each polar, you will connect a power splitter with two radios which
will give you 4radios in one antenna.
in the indoor part you will put your MMU3A as follows: the CH1 (first
frequency) will be used let us say in position 1 and 3 and will be
connected via XPIC cable(configured as 1+0 with XPIC and you have
to define the companion MMU position while configuring the MMU in
POS1 the companion MMU will be 3) and the Second frequency CH2
will be used in position 2 and 4 (interleaved positions) and as above
they will be interconnected by the XPIC cable and will be configured
as in the case of POS1 and 3.The IF cables coming from the radios
of the Vertical power splitter will be connected in POS 1 and2 and the
radios of the horizontal power splitter will be connected in POS 3 and
4 or vice versa.
Mechanical Optimization
This procedure is only performed at the far end antenna.

2. Use a spirit level and turn the nuts H on the link screw until the antenna is
levelled.
3. Use the alignment nuts H to rotate the antenna in the polarizational plane.
The rotation is performed to minimize the leakage between the two
polarizations, that is, to maximize the cross polarization discrimination.
5. Measure at near end on the RAU with vertical polarization and record the
value.
Note:
The maximum discrimination is reached within a narrow band, see Figure
222.
For 0.3 0.6 m antennas, an alignment according to Section 9.1.2 must first be
performed.
The polarization alignment of separately installed dual polarized antennas is
performed in two steps:
Mechanical Optimization
This procedure is only performed at the far end antenna.
1. Remove the screw in the non-slotted hole. The screw is not used when
aligning separately installed dual polarized antennas.
2. Loosen the feeder at the far end antenna to allow rotational movement.

2. Loosen the feeder at the near end antenna to allow rotational movement.

4. Rotate the feeder to minimize the leakage between the two polarizations, that
is, to maximize the cross polarization discrimination.
6. Measure at near end on the RAU with vertical polarization and record the
value.
Note:
The maximum discrimination is reached within a narrow band, see Figure
228.
