Page 7: Safety
SSPB-C300 (SSPBMg-C300-CRE) 1. SAFETY In addition to this section, included by reference are the following pertinent sections of the International Standard IEC-215, ‘Safety requirements for radio transmitting equipment’: Appendix D, ‘GUIDANCE ON ASSESSING THE COMPETENCE OF PERSONNEL FOR DESIGNATION AS SKILLED’ and also Sub-clause 3.1 of the Standard. - Page 8 The maximum permissible levels of exposure are quite low in comparison to the power levels produced by the equipment built by Advantech Wireless (e.g. less than 10 mW versus 4 to 700 W delivered by the different units). The maximum permissible levels are currently being studied by a number of organizations.

Page 10: Up-Converter Assembly
SSPB-C300 (SSPBMg-C300-CRE) 2.2.2 U ONVERTER SSEMBLY The L-Band signal arriving from a modem enters the Up-Converter Assembly through a ‘N-type’ connector, see Figure 3: Connectors (page 15). The L-Band signal (950 MHz to 1525 MHz) enters the high gain Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and Medium Power Amplifier (MPA) stages that boost the RF power level sufficient for the transmission through the Up- Converter Assembly. -
Page 11: Hpa Assembly
SSPB-C300 (SSPBMg-C300-CRE) 2.2.4 HPA A SSEMBLY The HPA Assembly amplifies the RF signal from the Up-Converter Assembly to a power level sufficient for transmission. Integral to this module are three HPA stages and a power conditioner board. Other functionality includes internal power conditioning and overtemperature shutdown. -
