The repeater uses the same CPS and tools as the other MOTOTRBO repeaters and radios. The Basic Service and Installation Manual is available on Motorola Online. There will be a new CPS (version 11.5) and firmware (R2.4A) coming out very soon by the way so "stay tuned".

What is the 2nd Ethernet connector used for?

This is reserved for future development.

What are the USB host; GPS and WLAN plugs used for?

These are reserved for future development.

What is the external reference connector for?

This is currently used for applications which require higher frequency stability. One can inject a 5 or 10MHz clock from an atomic clock or GPS receiver.

Are the fans any quieter?

I haven't done any comparative measurements but yes they are quieter than the DR3000.
