Zyxel’s SlimDAS totally changes the economic equation of DAS deployment—
while improving everything else. Eschewing costly yet cumbersome coaxial
cabling, SlimDAS is a unique product that enables the deployment of easy-to- 2 x SISO, 1 x MIMO, or

networking novices, saving the cost of hiring licensed electricians—a necessity in
traditional DAS deployment. CAT-5 also allows SlimDAS to power the entire
system using just one power supply, via PoE. These features significantly shorten
SlimDAS deployment time and greatly simplify management. In addition, High SNR, low noise figure
through bringing the amplifier straight to the antenna, SlimDAS delivers the best
possible signal-to-noise ratio—with no signal strength degradation. Finally, its low
0~24 dBm base station input requirement helps system integrators lower overall

Ensure high flexibility and performance
With SlimDAS, output power level for each RF module on each
RU (Remote Unit) can be individually adjusted. Upgrading to
MIMO service or additional carrier support is also easily
achieved through RF module addition. SlimDAS remote units
feature built-in pattern-configurable antennas in each
module, through which users can choose directional or omni
output and optimize coverage. SlimDAS also features input
auto-levelling algorithms that adaptively optimize system gain
to ensure optimal overall performance. For GSM900 systems,
SlimDAS's Uplink-Time- Slot-Mutely mechanism serves to avoid
adjacent channel rejection and far-close effects for phones
close to remote units.
