We are confident that you will find this product in proper working order, meeting all stated specifications. If not, please contact customer service immediately at 1-800-321-4700 and we will resolve the issue without hesitation. Please read this manual. A full understanding of product operation will support optimal performance and prevent accidental damage not covered by the stated warranty. ƒ Do not operate this product without proper loads on both antenna ports. You must connect both antenna ports to an antenna or a 50-Ohm load, rated for at least 1 watt. ƒ These products receive and amplify RF signals in the 1900 MHz PCS band. As such, these products are intended for use by the licensee of the respective service and should not be used without the expressed permission of the licensee. The 48810 PCS Band Repeater can be used to cover indoor or outdoor areas. It is designed and optimized for low cost, high reliability, and ease of use. This manual provides information on the proper operation and care of the repeater, however, Radio Frequency Systems can provide the total package of components and hardware for any type of repeater installation. See our catalog for the full line of antennas, coaxial cables, and accessories at www.rfsamericas.com . For assistance with this repeater installation and/or design of the distribution network to get the best coverage possible contact RFS Applications Engineering at 1-800-659-1880 48810 Ground Kit Wall/ Roof Feedthru 1/2" or 7/8" Coaxial cable Distribution Network Surge Arrestor Jumpers BaseService Radiaflex 1/2" Plenum Riser Rated Coax 1/2 or 7/8" Cable Taps 1/2" Plenum Coax Donor Antenna Hangers and Standoffs In-building Antennas In-band or Cross-band Combiners 2, 3, or 4 Way Splitters 1 Maximum Permissible Exposure Limits THIS PRODUCT IS CATEGORICALLY EXCLUDED FROM ROUTINE ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION ACCORDING TO CFR 47, SECTION 1.1037 AND 2.1091. Repeaters like the 48810 generate radio signals and thereby give rise to electromagnetic fields. The installer is expected to have a complete understanding of CFR Title 47, Sections 1.1307, 1.1310 and 2.1091. A brief discussion follows but is not intended to be a substitute. Additional information can also be obtained from OET Bulletin 65. ƒ Antenna installation should be performed by qualified technicians only. ƒ Installation instructions are not optional and are for the purpose of satisfying FCC RF Exposure Compliance. ƒ All antennas (donor and service) are to be fixed-mounted and physically secured to one location. ƒ Maximum donor antenna gain is 28 dB. ƒ Maximum service area antenna gain is 10 dB. There are two types of antennas attached to this unit. Installation considerations for both of these will be discussed separately. Donor antennas receive the base site TX signals and transmit the mobile TX signals back to the base site (uplink paths). These are typically mounted on rooftops or tower structures in occupational / controlled esposure areas. The maximum composite power of the uplink path is +15 dBm (32 mW). Section 1.307(b)(1) excludes from routine environmental evaluation, facilities, operations and transmitters that, according to Table 1 (titled "Cellular Radiotelephone Service"), are less than 1000W ERP for building mounted antennas and less than 1000W and greater than 10 meters above ground for non building-mounted antennas. As such, with maximum power from the uplink path @ +15 dBm (32 mW) and a maximum antenna gain of 28 dB, the donor antenna installation will not exceed 20 Watts (+43 dBm) and is categorically excluded. However, according to Section 1.1307 (b)(1), the appropriate exposure limits of 1.1310 are applicable to all facilities, operations, and transmitters. Therefore, the MPE (Maximum Permissible Exposure) of Section 1.1310 applies to the donor antenna installation. OET Bulletin 65 provides methods of calculating power density based upon the ERP and distance. It would be impossible to cover every possible configuration in this manual. Likewise, it would be unreasonable to dictate the exact parameters of every installation; therefore, it is the responsibility of the qualified technician to know and ensure that Sections 1.1307 and 1.1310 of CFR Title 47 are being met. Service antennas are also fixed mounted and covered by t…
