BDA is provided in a closed cabinet, with six fixing holes for wall mounting (Mounting brackets are not provided with BDA). BDA should be mounted with input/output connectors facing down in order to preserve water tightness. Roof Wall Floor 6 Document FIP-BDAM-07-EN FIPLEX • Electromagnetic Devices for Radiocommunication Systems FIPLEX BIDIRECTIONAL AMPLIFIER - USER MANUAL Natural convection flow should be guaranteed trough heat dissipator in order to keep repeater temperature between safety margins ( -30°C to +60°C). Keep minimum distance of 15 cm between heat dissipator and any object that could avoid free airflow circulation. Cold air Hot air Safety Any personnel involved in installation, operation or service of Fiplex repeaters must understand and obey the following: Repeaters are designed to receive and amplify signals from one or more base stations and retransmit the signals to one or more mobile stations, and vice versa. The repeaters must be used exclusively for these purposes and nothing else • Repeaters supplied from AC voltage must be connected to ground to guarantee safety operational conditions and to preserve the equipment. • Repeaters generate radio signals and thereby give rise to electromagnetic fields that could be hazardous to the health of any person who is extensively exposed to the signals at the immediate proximity of the repeater antennas. Coaxial cables insulation is made of polytetrafluoro ethylene, that could gives off small quantities of hydrogen fluoride when heated. Hydrogen fluoride is poisonous. Do not use heating tools when stripping coaxial cables insulation. 7 Document FIP-BDAM-07-EN FIPLEX • Electromagnetic Devices for Radiocommunication Systems FIPLEX BIDIRECTIONAL AMPLIFIER - USER MANUAL AC Power THE POWER SUPPLY UNIT CONTAINS DANGEROUS VOLTAGE THAT CAN CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK. DISCONNECT THE MAINS PRIOR TO ANY WORK IN THE REPEATER. AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY ARE ALLOWED TO SERVICE REPEATERS WHILE THE MAINS IS CONNECTED. Mains should be 110-220 VAC 50-60 Hz with ground terminal connection (yellow and green cable). A good ground connection must be done in order to preserve the equipment and system reliability. A 2 Amps fuse (5 x 20mm) is used as power supply protection against severe failure in mains power. DANGER ALWAYS REMOVE MAINS POWER BEFORE CHECKING OR CHANGING FUSES. 120 VAC CAN BE LETHAL. DC Power There is an alternative way to power the repeater, this is by means of a DC power source. DC power must be feed to the repeater main board by means of a specific connector (please see figure below). Accessing the repeater from the outside with the DC power cord must be done through the cable gland labeled “BATERY BACKUP”. Nominal DC voltage is specified in the repeater datasheet specifications. When DC voltage goes under the 80% of the nominal voltage, system will be in BATTERY FAIL status. 8 Document FIP-BDAM-07-EN FIPLEX • Electromagnetic Devices for Radiocommunication Systems FIPLEX BIDIRECTIONAL AMPLIFIER - USER MANUAL Power connectors – Check polarity before connect In the presence of AC power, the system switchs automatically from DC power to AC power in order to preserve battery charge. Battery backup system is not provided with the repeater, nominal voltages and currents should be observed in order to prevent from malfunction. See specification sheet. For further assistance please contact factory. VERIFY THAT CABLE GLAND IS WELL FITTED IN ORDER TO PRESERVE WHEATER TIGHTNESS OF…

Compliance with the power density limits of 1.1310 is required. Antenna: The manufacturer does not specify an antenna. A typical fix mounted antenna has a gain of anywhere from 3 dBi to 10 dBi. This device has provisions for operation from a a fixed location. Configuration Antenna p/n Type Max. Gain (dBi) Fixed mounted Any omni or directional 3-7 Operating configuration and exposure conditions: The conducted output power is 5 Watts. Control of exposure is uncontrollable. - Part 2.1091 states that devices are excluded from routine evaluation if the EIRP is less than 2.46Watt (or 1.5WERP). - Fixed operation: A typical installation consists of an antenna system with a coaxial cable of the type RG 8U which has a loss of 2dB for a length of 30 feet at 850 MHz. frequencies. MPE Calculation: The minimum separation distance is calculated as follows: The limit for uncontrolled exposure environment above 300 MHz is f/1500 mW/cm 2 . 6/15/2010 Page 2 of 3 FCCID: P3TBDA85S-1B3LC Frequency: 850 MHz The conducted power output is 5 watt. The coax loss was taken as 2 dB. 30 ft RG-8 type. Antenna gain was taken as 7 dBi 6/15/2010 Page 3 of 3 FCCID: P3TBDA85S-1B3LC Conclusion: The device complies with the MPE requirements by providing a safe separation distance of 47 cm (1.5 ft) between the antenna, including any radiating structure, and any persons when normally operated .
