Abstract
The present invention relates to a wireless communication arrangement comprising a node and a leaky cable running between a first and second converter arrangement. The first converter arrangement connects a first downlink signal and a second downlink signal to the cable, and converts the second downlink signal from a first frequency to a second frequency. The cable's other end is connected to the second converter arrangement which converts the second downlink signal from the second frequency to the first frequency. The second converter arrangement also converts a first uplink signal from a third frequency to a fourth frequency. The first converter arrangement receives the converted first uplink signal from the second converter arrangement and converts it from the fourth frequency to the third frequency. The first frequency is separated from the second frequency, and the third frequency is separated from the fourth frequency.
