Abstract

One aspect is directed to a node unit for a scalable telecommunications system. The node unit is configured to have inserted therein a respective power amplifier module and duplexing module for each of a plurality universal digital RF transceiver modules. The node unit is configured to communicatively couple an input of each power amplifier module to an output of the respective universal digital RF transceiver module. The node unit is configured to communicatively couple each universal digital RF transceiver module to respective external equipment via a duplexing module. At least one module comprises a module identifier. The system controller is configured to read the at least one module identifier and to configure the operation of at least one of universal digital RF transceiver modules, universal digital transport interface modules, and universal backplane module based on the at least one module identifier.
