SYSTEM DESCRIPTION 

 
The MARK-IVD 800MHz Narrowband Signal Booster (M4DBDA8) is a Class 

“A”

 

Industrial Signal Booster for FCC Part90 PLMRS Public Safety Agencies used to 
operate within range 806-817 MHz (UL path), 851-862 MHz (DL path) for Land 
Mobile Radio. 
 
The  system  features  eight  or  more  programmable  frequency  narrowband 
filters.  The  desired  operation  frequencies  must  be  configured  using  built-in 
Web Server.  
 
Programmable  Individual  Rx  Threshold  level  (Squelch)  per  filter  allows 
transmission if the probe signal is greater than configured Squelch. 
 
Individual  Automatic  Gain  Control  (AGC)  per  filter  delivers  constant  output 
power  level  per  channel  (+/-  1  dB)  regardless  of  their  input  level  variations. 
The maximum output level per filter can be changed with option “Maximum 
Desired Output Level per filter” in Main Settings page from Web Server  
 
The built-in  Web Server provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI)  to ease in 
remote  monitoring  &  control.    Access  is  obtained  via  a  PC’s  Web  Browser 
and a TCP/IP connection to the Unit. The system can be connected directly 
to a PC computer or can be plugged into the local area network. 
 
Some pages shown by the Web Server are the following: 
 

 

“Main Status”: depicts status alarm indicators and meters.  

 

 “Main Settings”: is used to configure system-level macro settings. 

 

 “Filter Settings” contains the settings that can be configured for each 
filter window. 

 
Never  operate  the  system  without  adequate  Load/Termination  on  the 
Donor/Base and Service/Side T/R port.  The 800 MHz Signal Booster will amplify 
until 120dB gain any input stimulus greater than Rx Threshold level (Squelch). 
 
The  Web Server allows  to  Mute/Un-mute  Power Amplifiers  in “Main  Settings” 
page.  Make  sure  the  power  amplifiers  are  un-muted  before  start  with  the 
test.
