* e.g. 900, 1800, 2100; band ports from/to RF cards;
various types of combiner available; examples see chapter 4.3.1
Note:
For special information on MIMO applications contact CommScope Technical Support.
For the location of the antenna connectors (N type), please refer to figure 3-3 Front view
of Node AM4 antenna connections. For mounting the cable connectors, it is
recommended to refer to the corresponding documentation of the connector
manufacturer. The bending radius of the cables must remain within the given
specifications.
Choose the type of cable best suited for the antenna. Consider that a cable with higher
loss is less expensive but impairs performance.
