900 MHz. The choice of cable will depend on the required length, cost
considerations, and the amount of signal loss that can be tolerated.
The tables below outline the minimum lengths of RG-214 coaxial cable
that must be used with common MDS omnidirectional antennas in order
to maintain compliance with FCC maximum limit of +36 dBi. If other
coaxial cable is used, the appropriate changes in loss figures must be
made.
NOTE:
The authority to operate the transceiver in the USA may be
void if antennas other than those approved by the FCC are
used. Contact your MDS representative for additional antenna
information.
*Refer to
Table 5-3
for allowable power settings of the transceiver for
each antenna type.
