pass filter and a sampling port. The Tx sampling port provides approximately top of the 
rack (TOR) minus 20 dB output power. The Tx power output at the top of the rack can be 
varied by changing the datafill. 
The PA is sized to allow sufficient linearity and gain such that a minimum of +29 dBm per 
carrier (up to 12 carriers) can be achieved at the top of the rack. The sampling port signal 
is brought out to the front of the RF shelf to provide monitoring and testing of the transmit 
path.  
The receive path contains a band pass filter, low noise amplifier (LNA) and a sampling 
port. As with the Tx sampling port, the Rx sampling port is brought out to the front panel 
of the RF shelf. The Rx sampling port provides approximately top of the rack (TOR) 
minus 20 dB output power.

2.2.6  Power Distribution Unit 
The Power Distribution Unit (PDU) receives DC input and supplies power via dedicated 
circuit breakers to each component in the MC-Series High-Power System. Each of the 
thirteen breakers has a three-position switch: ON, OFF or TRIPPED. The single alarm 
output connected to each breaker is normally closed, and goes open when a breaker is 
tripped.
