A wireless communication system () includes a base station () that is capable of communicating with a plurality of mobile stations (). The base station includes a modular device () that allows flexibility in locating the various operative electronic components () of the base station. Disclosed examples include a radio frequency head module () that packages components traditionally associated and located with a radio in a manner that allows them to be located with the Tx and Rx portions of the radio or at a remote location. One example includes a radio frequency coupling for communications between the radio () and the radio frequency head module (). Other examples include intermediate frequency couplings ().
