996T UASD / Multisite Bandplan question??

[b52hbuff]

My understanding from Wayne (the resident TRS expert) is that a multisite system must share a common base/step/offset...

It is with this understanding that I ask...

Why does UASD support different b/s/o for each site in a multisite system??

 

[WayneH]

I believe it's just been passed down from earlier development. It provides flexibility in case things change. A safer approach if you will...

In reality there can be multiple base and offsets but that only exists in a SZ OmniLink network. Each Zone (differentiated by system id) will have its own b/s/o. Look at the Aussie GRN network for example. Though each Zone/SysID has its own ZC and its own subscriber database. So you may or may not want to link OmniLink sites; some systems it won't matter as they'll config them to work together and not rely on tresspassing.

(For the anally retarted we're speaking strictly of 3600 here.)
