INTRODUCTION The MARK-IV VHF Broadband Signal Booster (M4BBDAV) is a Class “B” Industrial Signal Booster for FCC Part 90 PLMRS Public Safety Agencies used to operate within range 150-174 MHz for Land Mobile Radio. This document is the M4BBDAV User’s Guide Manual, intended for the Radio Technical Personnel. This manual is intended to be used with the M4BBDAV Equipment only. It is not to be used with any other equipment unless it is authorized by Canam Technology, Inc. Canam Technology, Inc. provide this document “as is” without any warranty of any kind. Canam Technology may make changes to the equipment, software or specifications in this document at any time without notice to the user. These changes will be notified to the party responsible for FCC compliance and they will be incorporated in future releases of this document. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment” This document may contain typographical errors and technical inaccuracies. Canam Technology will not accept any liability from the use and misuse of this manual, the information contained within, or the consequences of any actions resulting from the use of this information. CANAM TECHNOLOGY, INC. (CTI) MARK-IV VHF BROADBAND SIGNAL BOOSTER M4BBDAV USER’S MANUAL Page 5 of 13 Rev0 April/2015 Signal boosters such as the M4BBDAV generate radio signals and, therefore, electromagnetic fields. The technical personnel should have a complete understanding of FCC CFR Title 47 sections 1.1307 and 1.1310. Recommendations are included in this Manual, but they do not substitute the FCC guidelines. M4BBDAV Key Features:  Broadband Class B Signal Booster, per FCC Part 90.  Maximum Output Power at the antenna port +37 dBm per carrier. This device may require the use of antennas for proper functioning, depending on the application. The installation of the antennas should be performed by qualified technical personnel. All antennas should be fixed mounted and physically secured to one location The people must be away from the antennas at least 1.0 meters to comply with the RF Human Maximum Permissible Exposure limits, as long as the antenna system gain is lower than 7 dBi. If greater gain is used the separation should be increased, please refer to the FCC Rules. If service should be performed on the antenna, please shut down the transmitter or lower its power in order to comply with the maximum permissible exposure. CANAM TECHNOLOGY, INC. (CTI) MARK-IV VHF BROADBAND SIGNAL BOOSTER M4BBDAV USER’S MANUAL Page 6 of 13 Rev0 April/2015 Section B. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The system houses multi-carrier linear broadband power amplifiers and automatic level control. The amplifiers are designed with special linear characteristics for continuous operation, 100% duty cycle 24 hours/7 days a week. Its modular construction allows easy access to the amplifier modules and power supply. It has a maximum gain around 60dB across the band. The output power amplifier P1dB Compression point is around 20 Watts (+43 dBm). They also have an automatic gain control range greater than 25dB. The amplifiers modules are bolted down onto a heat-sink base. These heat sinks have adequate capacity to dissipate five times the maximum anticipated heat being generated by the amplifiers. It is recommended the temperature of the room be maintained below 80 0 F to assure the longest possible life of the amplifier transistors. The power supply has +28 VDC module for the amplifiers, equipped with over current and over voltage protection among other features. It will immediately drop the supply voltage to prevent damage to other components. The unit’s operational parameters are stored in the non-volatile memory of the embedded controller; this allows the booster to operate on a standalone basis. The built-in Web Server provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to ease in remote monitoring & control. Access is obtained via a PC’s Web Browser and a TCP/IP connection t…
