6.3 Antenna Connection
Your repeater has been shipped to you with two antennas. Attach the 2.4 GHz
shorter antenna on the left side of the unit and the longer 915/868 MHz antenna
on the right side of the unit.
In the case that you want to improve range and signal strength for your repeater,
you may replace your antenna with a high gain antenna (Omega Model No.
RPT-HGA-915/868). This antenna is sold as an accessory.
No co-location with other radio transmitters is allowed. By definition, co-location
is when another radio device or its antenna is located within 20cm of your
connector/transmitter or repeater and can transmit simultaneously with your
UWTC unit.
The Omega High Gain Antenna is used to increase the transmitting range from
the repeater to the receiver.
On your repeater, the antenna on the left receives data from the transmitter; the
antenna on the right side transmits that data to the receiver. It is the antenna on
the right side of the repeater that needs to be replaced with your High Gain
Antenna.
