PPLICATIONS

The primary application of the HRE-458 is to house HiGain doubler units in a High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber 
Line (HDSL) T1 transmission system. The remote enclosure is designed to protect HiGain doubler units from 
potentially harmful conditions found in outdoor environments. The enclosure comes in either a single gel core stub 
(List 1, List 1B) or air core stub (List 2) unit.

The HRE-458 gel core List 1, List 1B unit is intended for aboveground, pole-mounting applications that do not 
require pressurization through the cable stub. However, if you prefer to pressurize the unit, it can be locally 
pressurized by an optional exterior air cutoff valve (see 

Figure 2 on page 4

). The HRE-458 air core List 2 unit is 

intended for underground installations. It can be pressurized from the main feeder cable through its air core stub. 
The pressurization prevents the enclosure from flooding when mounted in underground manholes. Both units are 
similar in that they have primary gas tube surge protection on all cable pairs.

The HRE-458 can be used to house the following doubler and repeater units. All of these doublers and repeaters 
share the same generic slot pin assignments as shown in 

Table 2 on page 15

.

HDU-439, HDU-437, HDU-409, or HDU-407 Full T1 (1.544 Mbps) unit

HDU-219 or HDU-217 Fractional T1 (772 Mbps) unit

ISDN repeater

DDS repeater

239 T1 repeater
