Cable requirements
IDU-ODU cable
IDU–ODU cable is a 50 Ω coaxial cable intended to interconnect the Indoor
Unit with the Outdoor Unit. Any type of 50 Ω cable of good quality can be used;
the cable should be equipped with N–type male connectors on each end.
There are two N–type male connectors included in each radio unit delivery that
fit RG–213 cables or other cables with a surface diameter of 10 mm. As the
attenuation of the cable is essential particularly at 350 MHz frequency, its
usage is restricted, - the attenuation of the signal should not exceed 15 dB at
350 MHz. Commonly employing RG–213 type coaxial cable, its length may
reach 100 m, LMR–400 type cable may usually reach up to 300 m in length.

DC power cable
Due to low power consumption of the PhoeniX G2 split mount system, there
are no special requirements for the cable used to connect the IDU to the DC
power source. Any 2 wire power cable of good quality which fits well in SAF
Tehnika’s supplied single block 4 pole “screw on” power connector could be
used. The power connector is 2 pole, type 2ESDV-04P.
