Please note:
If the Primary which controls the FlexRET system does not support the default ex-factory interface set-
ting, then the FlexRET must be switched to the appropriate standard of the Primary before installation.
Please contact Kathrein for further information.
If the FlexRET of an antenna has to be replaced, the FlexRET gets the information stored in the antenna
after power on automatically. It is not necessary to configure the FlexRET manually.

Optional: Site Sharing Adapter (86010154 or 86010155) to create independent logical

interfaces at one ­antenna or site. Makes it possible to operate with more than one
­independent Node B.
Gender Adapter (86010162) to convert the AISG out (female) to an AISG in (male)
port in order to operate one FlexRet with exactly 2 BTS.
Detailed information is given in the data sheet of the Gender Adapter.
Port Extender (86010163) to convert the existing AISG input and output in order to
operate FlexRet with exactly 2 BTS while maintaining the daisy chain capability.
Detailed information is given in the data sheet of the Port Extender.
Please note:
In general, the addressing of the FlexRET is automatically performed. Only in case the FlexRET is
­manually addressed, the serial number has to be extended by the corresponding colour coding e ­ xtension
(e.g. CSG351234-R1). The respective information can be found on the site documentation which is
­included in the scope of supply.

FlexRET

Startup of FlexRET
The FlexRET module included in the antenna is preconfigured with the following information:
Antenna model no., Antenna Serial no., Antenna configuration data. After connecting a control
cable and scanning the antenna line devices (ALD) the used primary (e.g. NodeB, ALC, etc.) will
find the FlexRET. You only need to insert your additional data.

Connecting the control cables:

Connect a control cable to the daisy chain input of the FlexRET. The tightening torque for fixing the
connector must be 0.5 – 1.0 Nm (‘hand-tightened’).
The connector should be tightened by hand or by a special torque screw driver (order no. 85010080).
See also data sheet for Kathrein AISG-cable (86010007, ...).
Please note: To ensure the tightness of the RET System, Kathrein recommend the use of
Kathrein components only.
Please note: If the daisy chain output is not used, do not remove the protection cap.

For daisy chain operation, remove the protection cap and attach a control cable to interconnect
with the daisy chain input of the subsequent FlexRET or external RCU.
Please note: Do not remove the protection cap on the daisy chain output of the last F ­ lexRET
or RCU device.

measures:  

—Reorient  or  relocate  the  receiving  antenna.  

—Increase  the  separation  between  the  equipment  and  receiver.  
—Connect  the  equipment  into  an  outlet  on  a  circuit  different  from  that  to  which  the  receiver  is  
connected.  
—Consult  the  dealer  or  an  experienced  radio/TV  technician  for  help.
