INKA, IOR, REPO & LINK 

1.2.3  REPO – Radio Repeater 

 
Radio repeater REPO is intended to extend the radio coverage area for home care phones and its 
auxiliary equipment. When a signal from an ATOM or INKA is received, the signal will be forwarded by 
REPO with a higher output power level. The unit may be configured to retransmit either all radio 
signals or just a number of signals with pre-programmed codes. Up to eight radio codes can be pre-
programmed. 
 
REPO has the appearance as in the picture below. The size of the plastic cover is 65 x 65 x 23 mm, 
not including the mounting flanges or the external antenna. The width with the mounting flanges is 89 
mm and the distance between the mounting holes is 76 mm. The length of the antenna is 52 mm. 
 
Under the lid there is a rechargeable 3.6V NiMH-battery. There is also a LED, a button and 6 jumpers 
for basic configuration of the unit.
