The amplifier can be:
•
Used free standing.
•
Mounted in a flight case.
•
Mounted on the roof of a vehicle.
•
Mounted to an antenna system.
The amplifier has six M6 mounting points (three each side, 10 mm maximum depth), which can be
used to mount the amplifier solidly to the

important for mobile applications.
Where possible, the amplifier should be positioned to avoid the direct entry of rainwater i
ventilation slots. The amplifier is provided, as standard, with an air cowl, the normal orie
which is pointing towards the base of the unit avoiding the direct entry of driving rain.
Note:
There is a drainage hole in the cover to prevent the build-up of water if the
