ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

AC/DC Power Requirements

The repeater comes equipped with a AC/DC
power supply, that operates from 110 Vac to 240
Vac at 50 Hz to 60 Hz.
The outlet must be connected to an AC source
capable of supplying a maximum of 280 W. For a
nominal 110/120 Vac input, the AC source must be
able to supply 5 A and should be protected by
circuit breaker rated at 15 A. For a nominal 220/
240 Vac input, the AC source must be able to
supply 3 A and should be protected by a circuit
breaker rated at 10 A.
The DC power requirement is 12 V (+/- 10%).
Note: The AC socket must be installed near the
equipment and must be easily accessible.
Consideration should be given to the
connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on over current
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment ratings should
be used when addressing this concern.

Site Grounding and Lightning
Protection
!
C a u t i o n
One of the most important considerations when
designing a communications site is the ground
and lightning protection system. Make sure
installations meet all local and state building codes
in you area.

Electrical Ground

Ground wires carrying electrical current from
circuitry or equipment at the site is included in the
category of electrical ground. Examples include
the AC or DC electrical power used to source
equipment located at the site, and wires or cables
connected to alarms or sensors located at the site.
Installation Guide
Proper site grounding and lightning
protection are vitally important
consideration, Failure to provide
proper lighting protection may result
in permanent damage to the
repeater equipment. Please refer to
'Appendix B: Repeater Lightning
Protection' on page 69 for basic
instruction.
