Power Connection

Operation of the VX-4500/-4600 transceiver from an AC line requires a power 

supply capable of providing at least 10 Amps (for 25 W model) or 15 Amps (for 

45 W/50 W models) continuously at 13.6 Volts DC. Please contact your dealer to 

select an optimal power supply that satisfy these requirements.
Use the supplied DC power cable for making power connections to the power 

supply. Connect the 

RED

 power cable lead to the 

POSITIVE

 (+) power supply 

terminal, and connect the 

BLACK

 power cable lead to the 

NEGATIVE

 (–) power 

supply terminal.

Antenna Installation

When used the VX-4500/-4600 transceiver as a base station, the antenna installa-

tion must comply with the following requirements in order to ensure optimal per-

formance and compliance with the RF energy exposure limits in the standards and 

guidelines.

  The antenna should be mounted outside the building on the roof or a tower if 

at all possible.

  As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licens-

ee to manage the site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements 

and may require additional compliance actions such as site survey measure-

ments, signage, and site access restrictions in order to insure that exposure 

limits are not exceeded.
