2.
Ensure
that
the
isolation
between
the
donor
antenna
and
the
service
antenna
is
at
least
15
dB
greater
than
the
BDA
gain.
(Use
the
higher
of
the
Uplink
and
Downlink
gains
reported
on
the
BDA
test
data
sheet).
3.
Connect

setting
(30
dB).
After
verification
of
the
attenuation,
follow
the
above
steps
starting
