BTS-MS direct connection.

Hello,

I'd like to directly cable a handset to a nanoBTS and thought I could:

- put attenuators on the nanoBTS TX and RX ports - connect the other side of each attenuator to a resistive splitter/combiner that has 6dB loss - connect the combiner common port to the MS

Does this sound sensible and if so what size of attenuators might I want assuming MS and BTS were each set at 6dBm? I've seen figures for receiver sensitivity, but wasn't sure as to a "good" RF level to use with direct cabling!

I also have 10/20 dB directional couplers and circulators if they might find use in a better configuration.

Regards,

Andrew
