BDA

 

CONNECTIONS

 

 

The

 

BDA

 

uses

 

an

 

external

 

power

 

supply

 

which

 

connects

 

through

 

a

 

single

 

pin

 

15V

 

DC

 

input

 

located

 

on

 

the

 

back

 

of

 

the

 

unit.

 

 

A

 

optional

 

9

pin

 

D

Sub

 

connector

 

provides

 

failure

 

alarm

 

output

 

contacts.

 

 

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

 

15

 

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.
