EC30 Antenna Adapter Cable For optimum antenna coverage, The adapter cable should be connected directly to the base station and NOT to a splitter.
Page 29
EC30 100 foot coaxial Cable To remain in compliance with FCC regulations, you MUST use the entire length of cable. Even if this means you have coiled excess in the ceiling.
Page 30
EC30 Splitter for 2 antennas If you install the extended antenna, and you still don’t have enough coverage, you will need to add a second antenna with a splitter. This is to keep the original antenna in place, so you don’t loose coverage local to the base.
