NT3DAB1819125G2PCS GSM/EDGE 125W Dual Amplifier Booster

GSM/EDGE Dual Amplifier Booster CCI Model Number DAB-1819-125-G2 USER’S GUIDE Product Description: DAB-1819-125-G2 Dual Amplifier Booster: The CCI GSM Dual Amplifier-Booster Module (DAB) consists of two linear power amplifiers with intermodulation level control circuitry, each capable of generating a 125 Watt GSM/EDGE signal. Operation Description: The DAB-1819-125-G2 Dual Amplifier Booster is designed to supply a nominal output power level of 125 Watts (51 dBm) per channel. Although the gain of the Dual Amplifier Booster is fixed, the output can be adjusted by setting the input power level. Operation and Installation Instructions: The following instructions should be followed when installing the unit in service: • Apply a 29-33VDC input voltage to the DC Input connector of the Dual Amplifier-Booster Module. • Insure that the DC Source is capable of delivering up to 30 Amps at 31VDC. • Apply a GSM/EDGE signal of up to +40dBm to each RF input port of the Dual Amplifier-Booster Module. • The Dual Amplifier-Booster Module will provide approximately 11dB or less of RF Gain. • Check the RF output to insure the proper output power is present. {Approximately 125 Watts (51dBm) per channel}. • Adjust the input power level to insure the output power level is in compliance with the values indicated in the table on page 2.

Setting the RF Output Power on the DAB-1819-125-G2 Booster Amplifier The RF output power is not adjustable on the DAB & DAC Booster Amplifier. The user must adjust the RF input power to the Booster Amplifier such that the RF output power level does not exceed the levels shown below in order for the RF output spectral emissions to be compliant with the FCC spurious emissions limit of -13 dBm outside of the assigned frequency block. These levels must not be exceeded. Channel Center Frequency (MHz) Maximum RF 0utput (Watt)* 1930.2-1989.8 100 * Note: The Maximum RF Output Power is after any passive losses after the Booster Amplifier such as filters and cables. This equipment complies with Part 24 of the FCC rules. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Tel: 201-342-3338 Fax: 201-342-3339 Email: [email protected] Technical Description General Information The 125W Dual Amplifier Booster and Dual Amplifier Com- biner Modules are integral com- ponents of Communication Com- ponent Inc.’s PCS GSM-EDGE Cell Booster System. The Cell Booster System provides the means to add capacity or in- crease the coverage area and penetration of existing GSM-EDGE sites. The 125W Dual Amplifier Combiner (DAC) module combines multiple GSM channels onto a common antenna port without suffering any combining losses. Consequently, capacity of existing sites can be expanded with the existing cabling and antenna infrastructure. The 125W Dual Amplifier Booster (DAB) module significantly increases the downlink power of the Base Transceiver Station (BTS). When used in conjunction with a Tower Mount Amplifier (TMA), the Dual Amplifier Booster can significantly increase the footprint of rural sites and improve in-building penetration in urban locations. General Info 1 Technical Description 1 Electrical /Mechanical Specifications 2 Mechanical Diagram 2 Ordering Information 2 Contents The GSM PCS Cell Booster System was specifically designed to integrate with GSM-EDGE base stations without any need for retrofitting the original equipment. The core modules include a Dual Amplifier Booster Module and a Dual Amplifier Combiner Module. The Cell Booster system is fur- ther complemented with a range of Duplexer Modules, Power Supply Modules, and Splitter/ VSWR modules. The Cell Booster system can be configured with any combination of the above modules to seamlessly integrate with the carriers BTS equipment and achieve the desired per- formance results. The 125W Dual Amplifier Booster Module (DAB) consists of two linear power amplifiers with inter- modulation level control circuitry, each capable of generating 125 Watts of useable GSM signal. The Dual Amplifier Combiner Module (DAC) is identical to the DAB Module with the exception of a power hybrid combiner at the output which combines both signals to provide two 60 Watt GSM- EDGE signals on a common output. Both modules incorporate CCI’s proprietary GSM-EDGE fail- ure-detect circuitry that tracks the amplified GSM signal by timeslot and actively controls and monitors the performance of both amplifiers, providing dry relay contact closures that can be tied into the BTS alarm circuit.
