4  Installation 

 
 

Note: The MWS100 is designed for professional installation. Failure to comply 
fully with these instructions may void the MWS100 warranty and/or violate local 
safety or radio regulations. 

1. 

Select a mounting location for the MWS100. The MWS100 is designed for 
indoor, outdoor and in-vehicle applications. Mount the MWS100 using the 
chassis mounting holes and hardware suitable for the particular installation.  

 

Note: In the U.S. the 5150-5250MHz band is only available for indoor applications.  It is the 
responsibility of the installer to configure the MWS100 to use this band only when it is 
installed indoor. 

2.  Select antennas with gain specifications according to the table below. 

Note: The maximum allowable power for each antenna type is noted in the last column.  The 
installer must set the power correctly for the chosen antennas.

3.  Mount the selected antennas securely following all antenna manufacturer 

instructions and recommendations. Provide a suitable length of LMR-200 
type antenna cable between each antenna and the MWS100. If using only 
one antenna, connect it to the port labeled “MAIN”. Connect a second 
antenna to the port labeled “AUX”.
