The FreeSpeak II protocol uses E1 + DECTsync signals (FSII-TCVR-19-EU or FSII-TCVR-19-US)Normal E1 converters do not pass theDECT sync signals. Therefore the antenna needs toproduce its own local DECT sync.By having the antennas produce theirown local DECT sync, roaming between antennas is now limited and does not workcorrectly. Handovers between remote antennas is un-predictable and un-reliable
Handover means when the FSII BP is moving from one antenna to another.If the antennas are connected over Fibre or IP then when the FSII BP moves from one REMOTE antenna to another antenna the connection is not automatic and theFSII BP may first drop the connection and go into searching mode beforeconnecting to the next antenna
The connection method is - Matrix >splitter > E1-to-IP<> IP-to-E1>antenna
There are several 3rd party E1-to-fibre or E1-to-IP converters on the marketYou need to use E1 to TDM over IP converters. It’s important to use TDM converters !!!
Attached are various E1 converters that several customers have used successfully in the past and within the limits of the reduced system performance and restricted handovers
