    1.3.6 - - Public exposition to electromagnetic fields The public protection towards electromagnetic fields emitted by the antenna of the 9400UX is one of main requirements of the R&TTE Directive. An evaluation of the security measures to be implemented is presented in Appendix 1.

  • Page 21: Description Of The Equipment

    The Alcatel 9400 UX family covers the frequency range from 13 to 38 GHz, necessary to satisfy the largest range of propagation conditions as well as network configurations that gives also the ability to have a highest spectrum efficiency from 13 up to 38 GHz band with a 16QAM version.

  • Page 22: Configuration

    (*) Please consult factory if other Tx/Rx separations are requested. The Alcatel 9400 UX system features high spectrum efficiency (minimum use of RF bandwidth for a given capacity). The spectrum efficiency is optimized with the use of a 4 QAM or 16 QAM modulation (4 or 16 states Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) with digital filtering, providing compliance with the relevant ETSI spectrum masks and spurious emissions requirements (ERC Rec 74--01).

  • Page 26 The ODU is fixed by means of quick latches. This system allows to change the ODU without altering the antenna alignment. Two ODU generations are available. The new generation ODU, A9400 UX flat ODU, is lighter than the previous range from 94xxUXR201 to 94xxUXR203*. It is 4 and 16QAM compatible and software configurable only. * xx is for the band frequency of the Outdoor unit.
