Abstract

A fiber optic cable topology for a fiber optic repeater distributed antenna system network and a method of configuring the network using the topology is disclosed. The topology includes a first base transceiver station hub, a second base transceiver station hub, and a fiber optic backbone coupled between the first base transceiver station hub and the second base transceiver station hub, where the fiber optic backbone includes a plurality of optical fibers. A distributed antenna system repeater node is coupled to the first base transceiver station hub and the second base transceiver station hub. An optical fiber of the plurality of optical fibers in the fiber optic backbone includes a first portion and a second portion, where the first portion extends between the first base transceiver station hub and the DAS repeater node and the second portion extends between the second base transceiver station hub and the DAS repeater node.
