Mobile radio station and hybrid cable for a mobile radio station
There is provided a hybrid cable that comprises a coaxial cable with an outer conductor and a hollow inner conductor that encloses an inner space. The hybrid cable according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may comprise a data line that is arranged in the inner space of the inner conductor.
1. A method for converting an existing mobile radio station comprising a base station, a power supply, an antenna and a coaxial cable as an antenna cable into a remote radio head station, further comprising a remote radio head, the method comprising:
introducing a data line into a hollow space of a hollow inner conductor of a coaxial cable, said coaxial cable has already been installed as an antenna cable in the mobile radio station, and said hollow inner conductor of the coaxial cable is used as an empty conduit for installing the data line needed for operating the remote radio head using a tube spiral to pull the data line into the hollow space of the inner conductor, wherein the data line is configured as an optical and/or electrical data line and the inner conductor and an outer conductor are connected to the power supply to use the coaxial cable as a power cable for the power supply.
