    RHBDA OVERVIEW: The RHBDA assembly enhances the coverage area of radio communications in buildings and RF shielded environments. The RHBDA has dual RF paths (Forward/Reverse) to improve coverage in two distinct frequency bands. The unit features low noise figure and wide dynamic range. It is based on a dual duplexed path configuration with sharp out of band attenuation allowing improved isolation between the receiving and transmitting paths.

  • Page 7: Rhbda Connections

    RHBDA CONNECTIONS The RHBDA Remote AC power is accepted through a standard 3-wire male plug (IEC-320) with phase, neutral and ground leads (See Figure 3). The AC power is wired to a high efficiency DC switching power supply which is CE and UL approved. The Remote power supply runs the amplifiers, the Power ON lamp, and Fiber Optic Transceiver.

    Uplink will depend on minimum and maximum distance from the mobile to server antennas. The level indicator is accurate to +/- 0.4 dB of the ALC set point. Operation of RHBDA-454.7/467.5-0.1/8W-55-A at minimum attenuation with greater than -30 dBm average power incident on the MOBILE port may cause damage to the RHBDA.
