Testing and functioning check is described in a separate chapter. Different kinds of system configurations are described in the last chapter. Note that at some stages during the installation, the BTS must be turned off. To prevent extensive downtime it may be useful to finish the stages of the installation of both TTPA, APDU and CI when the BTS still is active. The BTS then has to be shut down only once for finishing the installation of all included parts. Note that all information in this manual may change without any notice. Refer to the technical specifications for the latest information on the TTPA products. Safety Considerations The TTPA is equipped with a pole clamping unit. This enables the installation personnel to first install the relatively light mast clamp, and then easily hook on the actual amplifier. This feature reduces the risk of accidents during installation. It is important for everyone involved in the installation, operation, and maintenance of the TTPA, APDU and CI to understand the following points: •The TTPA, APDU, and CI are designed to amplify the uplink signal from the mobile phone and the downlink signal to the mobile phone. The TTPA system must be used exclusively for this purpose and no other. •No units included in the system (TTPA, APDU or CI) may be repaired in the field. All malfunctioning parts must be sent back to Allgon Systems for repair or replacement. •Always use an ESD bracelet during installation of electrical equipment and when touching the BTS connectors, or when handling electrical equipment, to prevent ESD damage. •The mounting of the TTPA on high masts, poles or roofs must be done by skilled personnel, authorised to work on high masts, poles, or roofs. The personnel must be aware of security regulations and use appropriate security equipment. •The coaxial cable insulation is made of PTFE, polytetrafluoroethylene, which gives off small amounts of hydrogen fluoride when heated. Hydrogen fluoride is poisonous. Heating tools must not be used when stripping off coaxial cable insulation. No particular measures are to be taken in case of fire, because the emitted concentration of hydrogen fluoride is very low. 2.Installation of the TTPA Outdoor conditions The TTPA is environmentally protected (IP 65), and can be mounted without any kind of protection from bad weather conditions. However, it is not permitted to install the TTPA in bad weather conditions. If the bad weather conditions are of a short duration, and the TTPA and all other connectors that are to be connected during the installation are protected, the installation may continue not less than one hour after the adverse conditions have ended. Dimensions Weight is 12 kilos for TTPA unit, 3 kilo for clamping unit. Mounting equipment A standard mounting kit is delivered with each TTP…

Due to the configuration of the technology in which the TTPA will be used, only one carrier will be possible per TTPA. The unit will be used with a single GMSK modulated carrier.

Radiated emissions measurements were performed on a three-meter open area test site (OATS).

The EUT with host external computer was configured for maximum signal gain and bandwidth. The EUT was operated in a manner representative of the typical usage of the equipment. During all testing, (with the exception of intermodulation tests), the EUT was configured for Stacked Channel operation which results in maximum possible output gain. 5.0TEST TYPE(S) 5.1Radiated Emissions: 47CFR2.993, 24.238(a) 5.2Occupied Bandwidth: 47CFR2.989, Input vs. Output 5.3RF Power Output: 47CFR 2.985, 24.132(b),(c) 5.4Spurious Emission at Antenna Terminals: (downlink) 47CFR 2.991, 24.238(a) 5.5Intermodulation Spurious Emissions-2 Tone Simultaneous RF Injection (downlink): 47CFR2.991, 24.238(a) 5.6Spurious Emission at Antenna Terminals +/- 1MHz: 47CFR 2.991, 24.238(b) 5.7AC Line Conducted Emissions: 47CFR 15.107 E(V/m) 1m ' 49.2X20 1 E(V/m) 1m '31.37V/mor149.939dbμV 43%10Log(20)'56.01dB 149.939dBμV&56.01dB'93.92dBμV@1m E(V/m) 3m ' 49.2X20 3 E(V/m) 3m '10.4563V/mor140.39dbμV 140.39&56.01'84.38dBμV@3m FCC ID: L6G922802 EMI1186A- 4 -April 19, 1999 6.0TEST RESULTS 6.1TEST TYPE: Radiated Emissions 6.1.1TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION:2.993; 24.238(a) 6.1.2TEST DATE(S):9 September 1999 6.1.3MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES: As required by §2.993, field strength of spurious radiation measurements were made in accordance with the general procedures of ANSI C63.4-1992 "Methods of Measurement of Radio- Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 9kHz to 40 GHz". Preliminary radiated emission measurements were performed inside a shielded chamber with all digital signal generators on and terminated. The frequency list from the preliminary measurements was used as a guide for making final measurements on a 10 meter open area test site. The unit was scanned over the frequency range of 9 kHz to 20 GHz. The Radiated Spurious Emissions Limit is obtained by the following: Based on an output power (as measured at the output of the Amplifier) of 20 watts: P = 20 W o As per 2.993 (a), it is assumed this power is to be fed to a half-wave tuned dipole. Using a conversion formula for distance, the field strength at one meter can be derived: As per 24.238(a), the spurious emissions must be attenuated by 43 + log(P) which is: Therefore, the limit for spurious emissions is: At 3 meters measurement distance, the limit is; According to 24.238(a), all signals must be attenuated by 56.01 dB. Therefore, the limit for spurious emissions for a test distance of 3 meters is: FCC ID: L6G922802 EMI1186A- 5 -April 19, 1999 6.1.4RESULTS: Carrier Emission:20 Watts FREQUENCYEUTANTENNAEUTANTENNATESTCABLE FIELDLIMITS…

This test was performed with Digitally modulated carrier signals. The Digital signal generator was adjusted for continuous transmit on frequencies in both the uplink and down-link frequency bands. The frequency spectrum was investigated from 9.0 KHz to 20.0 GHz. For measuring emissions above 2 GHz, a high-pass filter was used to eliminate the fundamental transmit frequency to prevent possible saturation effects on the front end of the spectrum analyzer. 6.5.4RESULTS: Equipment complies with Section 2.991and 24.238(a) SUMMARY OF SPURIOUS EMISSIONS AT ANTENNA TERMINALS - DownLink (Base) Frequency Range EmissionEmissionLimit FrequencyLevel(dBm) (dBm) 0 - 1 GHz881.7 MHz-22.83-13.1 1 - 2 GHz1.401 GHz-14.00-13.1 2 - 2.90 GHz2.063 GHz-22.83-13.1 2.90 - 5 GHz3.919 GHz-41.00-13.1 5 - 9 GHz5.893 GHz-30.17-13.1 9 - 20.0 GHz19.74 GHz-27.17-13.1 Plots on the following pages illustrate compliance to the required rule parts.
