Description
1 OPC-2422 coaxial cable (5 m, 16.4 ft) is required for more than 1.5 m, 4.9 ft extension.
2 Optional OPC-2113 or user supplied coaxial cable is separately required. Cable loss requirement is less than 3.4 dB loss at 1621 MHz.
3 Optional OPC-2462 or user supplied coaxial cable is separately required. Cable loss requirement is 12.5 - 13.0 dB loss at 1621 MHz.
4 The distance from the main unit to the antenna is a rough guideline. The height of the building is an estimate assuming that the height of one floor is 3.5 m, 11.5 ft .
