A communication device for use within a communication system, the device comprising: re-sampling circuitry configured to output re-sampled digital downlink signals by re-sampling digital downlink signals at resample rates based on at least one factor, the re-sampled digital downlink signals having a smaller bandwidth than the digital downlink signals; and framing circuitry configured to multiplex the re-sampled digital downlink signals and to generate a first frame that includes the re-sampled digital downlink signals as framed data for transport to one or more remotely located communication devices of the communication system, wherein the one or more remotely located communication devices of the communication system are configured to transmit radio frequency signals using at least one antenna, wherein the transmitted radio frequency signals are derived from the framed data of the first frame received from the communication device.
