CONEXIO<br />
Raring to Go<br />
FTTA is just as much a part of 5G as broadband is part<br />
of the digital era. But how can FTTA be implemented<br />
as easily, individually and cost-effectively as possible?<br />
R&M’s answer is CONEXIO and is now launching.<br />

The macro cells for the new radio-based highspeed<br />
data traffic require stable, outdoor-capable<br />
fiber optic infrastructures (Fiber to the<br />
Antenna = FTTA). From the core network and<br />
base stations to the radio head, the cabling<br />
has to meet numerous requirements.<br />
Mobile operators and tower companies<br />
are looking for solutions for a wide range<br />
of location situations and topologies. They<br />
want to move forward quickly and cost-effectively.<br />
And they need robust, easy-to-install<br />
products.<br />
R&M is now providing an appropriate modular<br />
system with the new CONEXIO family. It<br />
includes all the modules that operators need<br />
for connecting, converting and upgrading<br />
macro-cell sites. These include boxes, cable<br />
head terminals, dividers, jumper cables and<br />
outdoor connectivity.<br />
More than FTTA<br />
CONEXIO can do more than Fiber to the<br />
Antenna (FTTA). The R&M modular system<br />
also offers solutions for Power to the Antenna<br />
(PTTA) and hybrid connectivity (HTTA).<br />
Therefore, CONEXIO is a complete system<br />
for site- and operator-specific infrastructures<br />
of macro cells. CONEXIO is also a plug-andplay<br />
solution.<br />
R&M has done everything to make it easy<br />
for installers to install, maintain, extend and<br />
replace the boxes, cable head terminals,<br />
dividers, connectivity and jumper cables. This<br />
reduces the cost of labor. The new HEC-BR<br />
(Bayonet Release) outdoor connectors<br />
feature unmatched failure safety and can be<br />
coupled quickly, even with gloves.<br />
The CONEXIO development is based on<br />
R&M’s decades of experience in equipping<br />
telecom and FTTX networks.<br />
Global market launch<br />
The market launch will take place globally.<br />
The R&M network ensures that the products<br />
are available everywhere and meet global<br />
quality standards. R&M offers manufacturers<br />
of active equipment specific designs.<br />
The range of services also includes local<br />
application engineering, individual assembly,<br />
customizing, planning support as well as<br />
logistics and supply chain support from a<br />
single source.<br />

CONEXIO flexx is the name of the box range.<br />
The boxes accommodate fiber optic, power and<br />
hybrid cabling for up to twelve radio heads. The<br />
jumpers are interchangeable. Cable protection<br />
switches and overvoltage protection can also<br />
be installed.<br />
