GSU
The
RADWIN
GSU
may
be
operated
over
Ethernet
or
connected
to
an
HSS
Unit
using
a
standard
HSS
cable.
It
synchronizes
the
transmission
timing
of
multiple
Hub
‐
Sites
to
a
GPS

Lightning
Protector
Unit
(LPU)
The
RADWIN
Lightning
Protection
Unit
is
used
for
CAT
‐
5e
cables,
and
can
work
with
any
RADWIN
product.
The
use
of
lightning
protection
is
dependent
on
regulatory
and
end
user
requirements.
The
RADWIN
2000+
Series
ODU
is
designed
with
surge
limiting
circuits
to
minimize
the
risk
of
damage
due
to
lightning
strikes.

Ethernet
Cable
Repeater
The
RADWIN
Ethernet
repeater
enables
you
to
extend
the
PoE
to
ODU
cable
beyond
the
100m
limit
(but
no
more
than
200m).
The
repeater
supports
10/100baseT.
The
LPU
works
with
CAT
‐
5e
(ethernet)
cables,
but
not
RF
cables.
When
installing
a
unit
with
an
external
antenna,
we
recommend
using
a
Surge
Protector
along
the
RF
cable
for
lightning
protection.
