Abstract: A shroud for a small cell antenna system is designed to house cellular telephone equipment, including a plurality of transceivers, RF conditioning equipment, and a network interface, which includes an interface to a optical fiber network. The housing has walls that define an interior region. The housing has at least one movable door that can be opened and closed to respectively permit and prevent access to the interior region. A generally planar backbone is situated in the interior region. The backbone has a plurality of apertures. A plurality of elongated brackets can be mounted to the backbone. Each bracket has a plurality of hooks and is attached to the backbone by insertion of the hooks into the apertures of the backbone. RF conditioning equipment (e.g., diplexer, triplexer, multiplexer, etc.) is mounted on one of the brackets within the housing. A network interface is mounted on another one of the brackets within the housing.
