3. AXM700 Overview
3.1 Operation Modes
3.1.1 Local Web-GUI
The AXM700 can be accessed locally by connecting a RJ-45 crossover cable from your laptop to the Ethernet port of the
repeater. Once a connection is established, launch your web browser and type http://192.168.63.1 in the address bar. A
popup window prompting for a user name and password will appear. Input your login credentials to gain access to the
repeater.
3.1.2 Remote NMS (Modem Option)
The AXM700 can support an optionally CDMA wireless modem in order to monitor and adjust the settings of the repeater
from a remote location. A computer with internet connection can be used to gain access to the repeater from a remote
location. To gain access to the repeater from a remote location, launch you web browser and type the static IP address that
has been assigned to the wireless modem and a popup window prompting for a user name and password will appear. Input
your login credentials to gain access to the repeater.
3.2 Front Panel LED

Indicator Description
PWR Indicates whether or not repeater is being powered
BITF Test to see that the modules is functioning
AGC Indicates whether or not AGC is being utilized
OSC Detects if oscillation is occurring
DL Low Detects is DL RSSI signal is below the specified threshold
RESET Indicates whether or not an unauthorized reset has occurred
COM Indicates that the repeater is communicating with the laptop
AC Fail Indicates that the repeater is not receiving enough AC Power
DC Fail Indicates that the repeater is not receiving enough DC Power
O/P Indicates that the repeater is in the state of RF Overpower
S/D Indicates that the repeater is performing the built-in shutdown
routine to protect itself from further damage
Tamper Detects if the settings of the repeaters have been changed

3.3 Switches and Ports
3.3.1 Power Switch
The AC Power on/off switch is located at the back panel of repeater. The switch should be powered on after the repeater has
been physically installed properly.
Figure 1: AXM700 Repeater Power Switch View
3.3.2 Battery Port
The Battery Port is to be used in conjunction with the ADRF-BBU (Optional Battery Backup Unit). The ADRF-BBU offers up
to 8 hours of battery backup power to avoid any possible downtime due to power failure. If a backup battery is utilized,
please connect the battery to the unit via the external battery port as shown in Figure 4.
Figure 2: Battery Port
Note: Please contact ADRF Technical Support for assistance if you are unfamiliar with the installation procedure of our
battery box.

3.3.3 Ethernet Port and Host/Remote Switch
• The Ethernet port as shown in Figure 5 is used to interface with the repeater locally. A RJ-45 crossover cable is required in
order to establish a connection with the unit.
• Host/Remote switch is to be used when an external modem box is being used
o Host Mode: DHCP is enabled. Any computer set to “Obtain an IP address automatically” will be assigned an IP
address by the repeater. When the repeater is set to Host Mode the IP address of the unit is 192.168.63.1
o Remote Mode: DHCP is disabled. This mode should only be used when an external modem box is present. By
default, then IP address of the unit is set to 192.168.63.5 and can be changed by setting the repeater to Host Mode
and specifying and IP address in the Modem Box Setting under the Install Tab of our Web-GUI.

3.4 Installation
3.4.1 Tools
The following tools are required to mount the AXM700 to the wall:
• Phillips screwdriver
• Power drill
3.4.2 Procedure
Four mounting holes are located on the wall-mounting bracket to attach it to the wall. The wall bracket must be securely
attached to sufficiently carry the weight of the AXM700, which is bolted to the wall bracket through the four aligned mounting
holes.
Installation Procedure
① Verify that the Repeater and Mounting Bracket are in good condition.
② Drill holes in the installation surface and insert the anchor bolts.
③ Set the mounting bracket against the wall.
④ Using the Hooks on top, set the Repeater against the mounting bracket.
⑤ Using the anchor bolts attach the Repeater to the Bracket.
⑥ Make sure the Repeater is securely attached.
⑦ Connect the GND cable.
⑧ Connect the Antenna cable.
⑨ Connect the Power.
⑩ Using a laptop, setup the Repeater.

is turned on.
Figure 5: Ground Cable Connection
AXM700 Repeater
User Manual V0.2
Page | 16
3.4.4 Antenna Separation/Isolation
Separation between the antennas is necessary to prevent oscillation. Oscillation occurs when the signal entering the system
continually reenters, due to the lack of separation between the donor and server antennas. In other words, the signal is being fed
back into the system. This creates a constant amplification of the same signal. As a result, the noise level rises above the signal
level.
Figure 6: RF Repeater Oscillation
To prevent feedback, the donor and server antennas must be separated by an appropriate distance to provide sufficient isolation.
Isolation is attained by separating antennas a sufficient distance so that the output of one antenna does not reach the input of the
other. This distance is dependent on the gain of the repeater.
A sufficient isolation value is 13 ~ 15 dB greater than the maximum gain of the repeater. For example, if the gain of the repeater is
50 dB, then an isolation of 63 ~ 65 dB or greater is required. In the same manner, because the AXM700 has a maximum gain of
90 dB in case of AXM700, it requires an isolation of at least 103 ~ 105 dB.
AXM700 Repeater
User Manual V0.2
Page | 17
3.4.5 Line of Sight
The donor antenna which points towards the base station typically has a narrow beam antenna pattern. As a result, a slight
deviation away from the direction of the BTS can lead to less than optimum results. In addition, obstacles between the repeater
and the BTS may impair the repeater from obtaining any BTS signal. As a result, the repeater cannot transmit signal to the
coverage area. Therefore, a direct line of sight to the BTS for the donor antenna is vital to the function of a repeater. For the
same reason, placing the server antenna in direct line of sight of the coverage area is also necessary.
