Summary:In one embodiment a system comprises a master unit configured to receive a base station downlink radio frequency signal and transmit a base station uplink radio frequency signal; and a plurality of remote antenna units each communicatively coupled to the master unit using at least one cable, the remote antenna units each configured to radiate a remote downlink radio frequency signal from at least one antenna and to receive a remote uplink radio frequency signal from the at least one antenna. The master unit comprises a channel selective uplink muting circuit. The master unit receives and monitors uplink transport signals from the remote uplink radio frequency signal to identify one or more channels within the uplink transport signals that are not carrying uplink communications traffic; wherein the channel selective uplink muting circuit selectively mutes channels of the uplink transport signals that are not carrying uplink communications traffic.
