UL/FCC: This equipment complies with UL and FCC

Warnings and Hazards

WARNING! ELECTRIC SHOCK

Opening the BDA (bi-directional amplifier) could result in electric shock and may cause severe injury.

WARNING! EXPOSURE TO RF

Working with the repeater while in operation, may expose the technician to RF electromagnetic fields that exceed FCC rules for human exposure. Visit the FCC website at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety to learn more about the effects of exposure to RF electromagnetic fields.

WARNING! DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT

Operating the BDA with antennas in very close proximity facing each other could lead to severe damage to the repeater.

RF EXPOSURE & ANTENNA PLACEMENT

Actual separation distance is determined upon gain of antenna used. Please maintain a minimum safe distance of at least 8inch while operating near the donor and the server antennas. Also, the donor antenna needs to be mounted outdoors on a permanent structure.

WARRANTY

Opening or tampering the BDA will void all warranties.

CAUTION: REPEATER SHOULD BE INSTALLED AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO POWER SOURCE.

CAUTION: THIS REPEATER IS FOR INDOOR USE ONLY AND SHOULD BE LOCATED INSIDE OF BUILDING.

CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY ON CONTROLLER BOARD IS REPLACED WITH AN INCORRECT TYPE.

CAUTION: DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS

Mounting Repeater

Wood-Framed Wall

• It is recommended to first attach a sheet of plywood to the wall. The sheet of plywood should be anchored to the studs in the wall.

• Using a pencil, mark the location for each of the mounting bracket's four mounting holes on the plywood.

• Place the mounting bracket over the four lag screws heads.

• Thread a lag screw at the positions marked in step 2.

Mounting Bracket

Hang and Grounding

• Hang the PSU unit to the mounting bracket.

• Locate the two Mounting Sems Screws (M6 x10mm) underneath the PSU unit. Tighten bolts until secure.

<Picture 2> Hanging the PSU Unit.

Hang and Grounding

• Hang the rest of the units in the following order: 800/900 AMP.

• Locate the two Mounting Sems Screws (M6 x10mm) underneath each unit. Tighten bolts until secure.

CAUTION

Units must be hung in the following order only: DFM -> 800/900 AMP.

<Picture 3> Hanging the Rest of Units.

Hang and Grounding

• Connect ground cables of each unit to the bracket using Ground Sems Screws (M4 x 8mm) as displayed at the picture below.

CAUTION

Ground cables must be properly grounded to provide both EMI and voltage surge protection for the repeater.

Ground Cable

<Picture 3> Grounding of the PSU, 1900 AMP, DFM, 800/900 AMP Units.

Hang and Grounding

• Locate the ground lug on the underside (or side) of the bracket.

• Crimp the ground cable to the ground lug.

• Route the free end of the ground cable to an approved (per local code or practice) ground source.

CAUTION

Ground cable must be properly grounded to provide both EMI and voltage surge protection for the repeater.

<Picture 4> Grounding the Bracket.

Position Antenna

• After installing 800/900MHz antennas the installer should make line of site.

• Customer specifications should be followed for positioning the antennas properly.

Warning: In order to avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna should not be less than 50cm during normal operation. The gain of the antenna is 12 dBi.

<Picture 5> An installer is directing Donor Antenna to

nearby BTS to receive strong input signal.

RF Cable Connections: Top of The Repeater

• Connect the 800/900 Antennas to their corresponding ports.

• Plug in four N(M) to N(M) type RF cables as demonstrated in the picture below.

CAUTION

Do not connect or disconnect cable from ANT port when power is ON.

RF Cable Connections: Front Side

• Take out two SMA (M) to SMA (M) type RF cables.

• Please, pay attention to cable‟s corresponding number and its color while connecting.

• 800/900 AMP and DFM via Band 2.

RF Cable Connections: Bottom of The Repeater

• Take out three SMA (M) to SMA (M) type RF cables.

• While connecting the PSU and the DFM units underneath, use referenced cable and pay attention to the labels. Plug them into their corresponding outlets.

• User may choose either of the two SMA ports on the bottom of the PSU to connect to the DFM.

• User may choose any two of the four SMA ports on the bottom of the PSU to connect to amplifiers.

CAUTION

Please, pay attention while connecting PSU and DFM, PSU and 800/900 AMP. The repeater will not work if connection is inappropriate.
