Tower Installation Overview
The Tower CCU 100 (TCU) installation differs significantly from other CCU 100
installation profiles in that the CCU 100 is installed within a cabinet enclosure at the base
of a radio tower, and all of the antennas are mounted externally and remotely. The
standard cabinet protects the hardware from adverse environmental conditions and
provides easy access for servicing the TCU and its related components.
