Abstract
Scalable telecommunications systems and methods are provided. In one embodiment, a node unit for a scalable telecommunications system comprises: a plurality of universal digital RF transceivers each configured to communicatively couple the node unit to external equipment; one or more universal digital transport interfaces each configured to communicatively couple the node unit to a respective transport link; a universal backplane communicatively coupled to the universal digital RF transceivers and universal digital transport interfaces; and a system controller; wherein each of the universal digital RF transceivers is configured to couple to a respective modular power amplifier and a modular duplexer inserted within the node unit. The system controller is configured to detect capabilities of at least one of the universal digital RF transceivers, the universal digital transport interfaces, the universal backplane, the modular power amplifier and modular duplexer, and adjust parameters of the node unit in response to the detected capabilities.
