Abstract
A cellular fiber monitoring module (CFMM) for a remote cellular tower site is implemented by providing monitoring for fiber connections between mobile carrier's broadcast ground equipment and its corresponding antenna equipment located on the cellular tower. Each monitoring module includes a fiber optic monitor pass though module which integrates the necessary monitoring data for each base transceiver station (BTS) equipment including, fiber port pass/fail status, peak to peak level measurement, optical degradation, BTS fault status, etc. The CFMM can be used as a stand-alone device or integrated into an on-site monitoring system.
Claims5
A system comprised of a cellular fiber monitoring module (CFMM) connected between a mobile carrier's base transceiver station (BTS) equipment located at ground level within a cellular tower site and the corresponding remote radio head (RRH) located on the same tower. Said fiber monitoring module is configured to monitor the fiber for signal for faults as it passing through the device.
