Professional Installation Required
The amplifier and antennas used must be professionally installed by experienced antenna installation
professionals who are familiar with RF issues (such as gains and losses) as well as local building and safety
codes. Failure to do so will void the product warranty and may expose the end user to excessive Radio
Frequency hazard. Regulations regarding maximum antenna gains, amplifier power gain, and maximum
permissible exposure vary from country to country. It is the responsibility of the end user to operate within
the limits of these regulations and to ensure that the professional installers who install this device are aware
of these regulations. All antennas are intended to be installed outdoors.

1. Description
The AMP2440 is a bi-directional amplifier designed for extending the range of 2.4 GHz wireless
radio modems, Wireless LAN cards, Access Points and wireless bridges. The units provide transmit
power amplification as well as receive signal gain. The amplifier is installed right at the antenna’s
feed point, providing maximum effectiveness of transmit power. This has the effect of
compensating for signal loss in the transmitter cable to the antenna. Likewise, the Low Noise
Amplifier (LNA) in the AMP2440 boosts the receive signal right at the antenna prior to experiencing
the loss in the transmission cable to the radio. This gain completely overcomes the losses in the
transmission cable between the amplifier and the radio. This results in the lowest possible system
Noise Figure. In fact, use of the amp will actually increase the receiver sensitivity by a few dB! The
ultimate result is the best receiver sensitivity and maximum possible range for whatever antenna is
used.
The amplifier box is weatherproof and can be bolted to the antenna mast or tower leg using the Ubolt included. When properly installed, the connectors face down so that gravity will drain all water
away from the amplifier enclosure. This will prevent water from settling on the face of the unit. The
LEDs will also be facing downward so that they can be checked for operation from the bottom of the
mast or tower.
DC Power to the amplifier is supplied through the transmission cable that carries the RF (Radio
Frequency) signal. This DC voltage is put on the coax cable using the DC Power Injector included
in the amplifier kit. Both the amplifier and the DC Injector also contain their own integral lightning
protection as well as DC surge protection. No external antenna lightning protection on the coax
cable is required. (The DC Injector has a grounding stud to facilitate an easy connection to a good
earth ground.) It also has mounting flanges to facilitate permanent installation to a bulkhead or wall.
If mounted to a grounded metal plate, then no extra wiring need to be attached to the grounding
stud. The amplifier box will provide maximum lightning protection when it is bolted to a grounded
mast or tower. No extra ground straps need to be connected to the amplifier case.

have a 2.1 mm ID power jack and operate on 12VDC.
DC-2.1-2.5 Same as above except used for radios and Access Points that have a
2.5 mm ID barrel jack on them.
4. Installation and Cabling Instructions
To comply with FCC part 15 rules, the proper version of the amp must only be used in
systems that have been FCC certified. The system must also be professionally installed to
ensure compliance with the Part 15 certification. It is the responsibility of the professional
installer to ensure that certified systems be deployed in the United States (or where FCC
rules apply). The use of the amplifier in any other combination (such as co-located
antennas transmitting the same information) is expressly forbidden in accordance with
FCC rules CFR47 part 15.204. Please visit our web site (www.ydi.com) to see the
systems currently certified by the FCC.
Several key factors unique to their particular installation determine the power level at the input of the
amplifier. The most important consideration is the cable loss in the transmission cable between the
radio and the pole mounted amp. It is important that the installer understand these and other
factors when installing the system.
If you are not familiar with determining power levels within the transmission system, YDI engineers
will assist you in planning your system including selecting the proper cable and antenna required.

SAFETY NOTICE
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment
when installed as directed. This equipment should be installed and operated with fix-mounted
antennas that are installed such that the main lobe(s) of these antennas will have a minimum of 2
meters of separation distance between the antenna and all persons’ body during normal operation.
The amplifier can be mast mounted using the steel U-bolt included with the unit. Refer to the
drawing at the end of the manual for a cabling diagram. In outdoor applications, the amplifier must
be installed with the connectors facing downward. Use an open -end wrench to carefully tighten the
bolts using the included nuts. Take care not to over-tighten the bolts.
Alternately, the amplifier can be mounted to a flat surface using any of the mounting holes on the
brackets mounting flanges. However, for maximum reliability the connectors should be facing
downward.
It is very important to waterproof the RF connectors on the amp. However, it is recommended that
you do not tape the connectors until after all system tests have been performed. Be sure to use a
high quality weather resistant electrical tape and/or other water sealant method. Silicon sealants
are not recommended since they are hard to work with, do not ensure a 100% waterproofing of the
connectors and difficult to remove if ever necessary.
The DC Power Injector is not in a waterproof enclosure and must be protected from the weather. It
can be permanently mounted to a surface using the mounting flanges. If not mounted to a wellgrounded metal plate or bulkhead, then a separate ground strap will need to connect to the
grounding stud on the Injector.
Refer to the Typical Installation Detail drawing at the end of this manual for more information about
the installation.
The picture to the left shows the amplifier in typical installation
shown with the YDI Model PT2421 Grid Dish antenna vertically
polarized. The location on the mast where the amplifier is
mounted is not important: provided that the connectors face
downward. (Note that when this picture was taken, the
connectors were not taped yet nor was the cable secured to
the mast.) Also, there is not need to plug or fill any of the
holes on the back of the amplifier enclosure. The housing is
designed such that these holes do not penetrate the inside of
the waterproof seal even though an initial inspection might
make you think otherwise.
If the tower or mast is adequately grounded and the U-bolt
makes good electrical connection to it, then there is no need to
provide additional grounding to the amplifier enclosure.

6. DC Power Injector Operation
A DC Power Injector is an in -line device which “injects” the DC power necessary to operate the
amplifier onto a transmission line. This allows the coax cable to carry both RF signals and DC
power to the mast-mounted amplifier. This precludes the need to run a separate power cable to the
remote mounted amplifier.
When grounded to a good earth ground through either the grounding stud or mounting flange, the
DC Injector will provide maximum lightning protection to your radio modem, wireless LAN card or
Access Point.

This jack parallels the 12 VDC jack power jack. It can be used to provide 12
VDC to the radio modem or Access Point using a short DC jumper cable.
Provided that the radio device operates on 12 VDC and draws less then 600
ma, the standard DC power supply that comes with the amplifier kit can be
used to power both it and the amplifier/DC Injector. This extra jack is
installed when the DC-INJ-DUAL option is ordered.
8. Power Supply
The AMP2440 kit comes with a 100 to 240 VAC power supply that has a standard 2.1 mm barrel
plug [center pin positive (+) tip and outer ring negative (-)]. Although normally supplied with a power
supply, any 12 Volt DC, 1 amp (or greater) regulated power supply can be used. The amplifier can
operate from 11 to 14 VDC enabling battery or vehicle operation as well.
The DC power input is diode protected to prevent damage caused by reverse polarity input voltages
as well as by an TVS to protect it and the amp from overvoltage surges.
7
9. Operation
The unit operates automatically and there are no user adjustments.
The amplifier is only intended for use with 2.4 GHz radio modems that alternate between transmit
and receive in the same radio channel. These are referred to as Time Division Multiplex (TDD)
devices. A typical example is an 802.11 WLAN card or Access Point. These modems “ping-pong”
back and forth between transmit and receive so quickly during normal operation that both the TX
and RX LEDs will appear to be lit simultaneously. In fact they are turning on and off so quickly that
they appear to be on all the time. You can tell the duty cycle one of these LEDs by their brightness.
The amplifier will not work with radio modems or wireless bridges that are band-split true full duplex
devices.
The amplifier provides for linear amplification for transmit output powers up to at least 400 mW. This
is important for Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radios, especially 802.11 devices. If you
drive the amp so hard as to exceed 400mW output power, the amplifier will start to go into
compression. This will result in raising the sidebands which will result in polluting the adjacent radio
channels.
For Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum radio devices, versions of the amplifier are available from
the that have the output power limited to 250, 400 or 500 mW as specified in the FCC certified
system. These amplifiers should not be used with DSSS radios since the transmit power limiting
mechanism in the amplifier will cause it to go into compression when their respective clamped
output levels are reached.

APPENDIX A: Calculating Power
This appendix explains how to calculate the input power to the amplifier for your configuration.
1. Using Table A, convert the output power of the radio modem from Watts (or milliWatts) to dBm.
The Model Amp 2440 amplifier works with input powers between 3.2 mW, +5 dBm, and 100 mW
(+20 dBm).
2. Calculate the cable attenuation for your installation.
First, determine the attenuation for the length of your cable at 2.4 GHz. Use the cable
manufacturer’s specifications, or for convenience you may refer to Table B for typical values. (For
example, Table B shows that typical attenuation for LMR-400 is about 6.9 dB per 100 foot at 2.4
GHz.) Then add 0.6 dB to that figure for connector, adaptor cable, and DC injector losses.
3. Calculate the maximum power that can be expected at the amp on the pole:
Radio output (dB) - Cable loss (dB) - Connector Loss =
Signal level at the amp’s input (dBm)
For example, a radio with 40mW (+16 dBm) output and 75 feet of LMR400 (about 3.4 dB of loss)
would have the following input level to the amplifier:
+16 dBm – 3.4 dB – 0.6dB = +10 dBm
Using a standard amplifier with 14 dB of linear transmit power gain, the output power is calculated
as follows:
+10 dBm + 14 dB gain = +24 dBm output power (250 mW)
If the input to the amplifier will exceed +20 dB (100 mW) by your calculations, an attenuator pad will
be necessary between the modem and the DC injector. Or y ou can order a special version of the
amplifier from YDI that will accept higher transmit input power.
Note: Never put attenuator pads between in the cable the DC injector and the amplifier since there
is a +12V DC voltage on the cable. Doing this would prevent DC power from reaching the
amp and will also damage the attenuator. However, a longer cable or one with higher loss
could be used.
Effective Radiated Power (ERP)
ERP is defined as the sum of the power feeding an antenna and the gain (in dBi) of that antenna.
For example, with 250 mW (+24 dBm) of power into a 24 dBi gain grid dish antenna (like the YDI
PT2424), the ERP would be:
+24 dBm + 24 dB = 48 dBm or 64 watts EIRP
