    Verify the downlink in-building signal strength and the uplink signal strength at donor antenna meets requirements. Reduce the gain if needed (increase attenuation). Note: Operation of BDA-PS9-37/37-90-C at maximum gain with greater than -30 dBm average power incidents on the MOBILE or BASE ports could cause damage to the BDA.
  • Page 15: Diagnostics Guide

    DIAGNOSTICS GUIDE The BDA provides long term, care-free operation and requires no periodic maintenance. There are no user-serviceable components inside the BDA. This section covers possible problems that may be related to the installation or operating environment. Gain Reduction Possible causes: Defective RF cables and RF connections to antennas, damaged antenna or Leaky cable Occasional Drop-out of some Channels Possible causes: One channel with very strong power dominates the RF output of the...
