BDA CONNECTIONS 

 

The BDA AC power is accepted through a standard 3-wire male plug (IEC-320) with 
phase, neutral and ground leads. The AC power is wired to a high efficiency DC 
switching power supply which is CE and UL approved. The power supply runs the 
amplifiers and the Power On lamp. The metal enclosure of the BDA is connected to 
ground.  
 
A 9-pin D-Sub connector provides failure alarm output contacts (see diagram next 
page) as well as an optional 12 VDC (250mA) auxiliary output.    
 
The RF connections are made via two type “N” female connectors. The RF connector 
labeled “BASE” must be connected to the antenna pointing towards the base station. 
The RF connection labeled “MOBILE” must be connected to the antenna facing the 
area to be covered by the BDA. 
 
The RF connections must be made through cables with characteristic impedance of 
50 ohms. 
 

The isolation between the base station antenna and the mobile antenna should 
be at least 12 dB higher than the BDA gain. Isolation less than this value can 
cause gain ripple across the band. Isolation equal to or less than the BDA gain 
will give rise to oscillations which will saturate the amplifiers and possibly 
cause damage to the BDA.
