TheprinciplesforconfiguringUBBPboardsareasfollows:

First,selectUBBPboardsaccordingtothemodeinwhichtheUBBPboardsworkin.Forexample,iftheGSM
modeisused,selectanyofthefollowingUBBPboards:UBBPd1,UBBPd2,UBBPd3,UBBPd4,UBBPd5,and
UBBPd6.

Second,selectUBBPboardsaccordingtospecificationsrequiredbyeachmode.Forexample,iftheGSMmode
