Warning Connect the equipment frame ground to building ground. Warning Operating the iDEN MINI with antennas in very close proximity facing each other could lead to severe damage to the repeater. Caution RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be maintained between the user and the external antenna of repeater to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov Caution This equipment is for indoor use and enables the communication wiring to communicate only inside the building. 2 Contents Glossary 1.

Glossary ALC (Automatic Level Control) ALC feature prevents the repeater from exceeding its maximum output power, by reducing the gain automatically. ALC is used to adjust the gain to an appropriate level for a range of input signal levels. ASD (Automatic Shutdown) Automatic shut down protects the repeater itself from the oscillation or excessive input signal and eliminates any degradation to the network. There are three parameters, ASD LEVEL, ASD TIME and ASD COUNT. If the output power gets higher than “ASD LEVEL”, the repeater will shut down for “ASD TIME” time and then turn the amp back on and measure the output power again. If this repeats “ASD COUNT” times, the repeater will shut down completely.

Introduction iDEN MINI repeater is used to fill out areas in iDEN mobile systems, such as base station fringe areas, business and industrial buildings, etc. iDEN MINI receives signals from a base station, amplifies and retransmits the signals to mobile stations. Also it receives, amplifies and retransmits signals in the opposite direction. Both directions are served simultaneously with the following features: • 7MHz or 18MHz-bandwidth service @ 800MHz’s • 5MHz-bandwidth service @ 900MHz’s • Adjustable Band Edge @ 800MHz’s and 900MHz’s • Roll Offs: 65dBc at 0.5MHz outside pass-band Overview: Service 817MHz 18MHz-bandwidth 824MHz806MHz 862MHz 869MHz851MHz901MHz896MHz Repeater Donor antenna Plugged in an AC outlet Donor iDEN 800iDEN 900 Base Station Service Mobile Station Service antenna 940MHz935MHz 7MHz-bandwidth 18MHz-bandwidth5MHz-bandwidth5MHz-bandwidth 7MHz-bandwidth iDEN 800 ULiDEN 800 DLiDEN 900 ULiDEN 900 DLiDEN 800 ULiDEN 800 DLiDEN 900 ULiDEN 900 DL 5 User’s Manual 2.

The receive antenna height and turn table rotation was adjusted for the highest reading on the receive spectrum analyzer. For CDMA signals, a peak detector is used, with RBW = VBW = 3MHz. For AMPS, GSM, and NADC TDMA signals, a peak detector is used, with RBW = VBW = 1MHz, A Horn antenna was substituted in place of the EUT. This Horn antenna was driven by a signal generator and the level of the signal generator was adjusted to obtain the same receive spectrum analyzer reading. This spurious level is recorded. For reading 1GHz, the above procedure is repeated using horn antennas and the difference between the gain of the horn and an isotropic or dipole antenna are taken into consideration.
