Antenna Connection
The base station is supplied with two (2) antennas. One 1/2-
wave antenna for transmit and one 1/2-wave for receive. The
antennas have TNC male connectors.
The frequency range of the antennas should match the receiver
and transmitter of the base station. Match the color code on the
antenna with the color code on the base station.
Attach the transmit 1/2-wave antenna to the antenna input
receptacle labeled Transmit on the right side of the rear panel.
The antenna should be vertically aligned.
Attach the receive 1/2-wave antenna to the antenna input
receptacle labeled Receive on the left side of the rear panel. The
antenna should be vertically aligned.
Antenna Polarization
The RTS Wireless Intercom System is vertically polarized. This
means both the transmitting and receiving antennas should
operate in the vertical position.
