Equipment description and use 

 
 
The system consists of two types of remote Matrixes with different characteristics, each 
of which must be used in conjunction with the AMB-02 Control Box.

 

 
Each  matrix  is  built  in  stainless  steel  sheet  capable  of  resisting  snow  and  any  type  of 
driving rain.

 

It is equipped with a bracket which enables a solid anchorage to a wall or pole.

 

 
 
 

AM-01/6-SO2R 

 

                     

 

 
Able to manage up to 6 antennas even in the case of Expert 1.3K-FA / Expert 1.5K-FA.  
Maximum power up to 2KW.  
In  the  case  of  SO2R  operations.  a  two  color  LED  is  associated  with  each  antenna 
connector: 

  Red means that the selected antenna is RTX for the band in use. 

  Green means that the selected antenna is currently only RX in the other band. 

For a more in-depth knowledge of SO2R, refer to the amplifier manual. 
 

This  Matrix  can  also  be  used  not  in  SO2R  operations  by  eliminating  or  ignoring 
the SO2R / SO2R coaxial cable (see the following system diagram). 
In this case, only the red color of the LED will be active automatically.
