memory; and
at least one processor coupled to the memory, the at least one processor configured to:
establish, by a mobile termination (MT) component of the repeater, a control link with a control node;
receive, via the control link, a configuration of one or more parameters of a repeating unit (RU) component of the repeater to forward communication between a first wireless device and a second wireless device on an access link;
transition the MT component to a power saving mode for at least a period of time after receiving the configuration, wherein the MT component is configured to perform reduced monitoring of the control link during the power saving mode; and
