USER’S MANUAL
Signal boosters such as the M4DBDA8 generate radio signals and,
therefore, electromagnetic fields. The technical personnel should
have a complete understanding of FCC CFR Title 47 sections 1.1307
and 1.1310. Recommendations are included in this Manual, but
they do not substitute the FCC guidelines.
M4DBDA8 Key Features:



Narrowband Class A Signal Booster, per FCC Part 90.
Maximum Output Power at the antenna port +37 dBm per
carrier.
AGC circuit provides a constant output power, regardless of
the input power.
This device may require the use of antennas for proper functioning,
depending on the application. The installation of the antennas
should be performed by qualified technical personnel. All antennas
should be fixed mounted and physically secured to one location
The people must be away from the antennas at least 1.0 meters to
comply with the RF Human Maximum Permissible Exposure limits, as
long as the antenna system gain is lower than 11.3 dBi. If greater
gain is used the separation should be increased, please refer to the
FCC Rules.
If service should be performed on the antenna, please shut down
the transmitter or lower its power in order to comply with the
maximum permissible exposure.

USER’S MANUAL
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The MARK-IVD 800MHz Narrowband Signal Booster (M4DBDA8) is a Class “A”
Industrial Signal Booster for FCC Part90 PLMRS Public Safety Agencies used to
operate within range 806-817 MHz (UL path), 851-862 MHz (DL path) for Land
Mobile Radio.
The system features eight or more programmable frequency narrowband
filters. The desired operation frequencies must be configured using built-in
Web Server.
Programmable Individual Rx Threshold level (Squelch) per filter allows
transmission if the probe signal is greater than configured Squelch.
Individual Automatic Gain Control (AGC) per filter delivers constant output
power level per channel (+/- 1 dB) regardless of their input level variations.
The maximum output level per filter can be changed with option “Maximum
Desired Output Level per filter” in Main Settings page from Web Server
The built-in Web Server provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to ease in
remote monitoring & control. Access is obtained via a PC’s Web Browser
and a TCP/IP connection to the Unit. The system can be connected directly
to a PC computer or can be plugged into the local area network.
Some pages shown by the Web Server are the following:



“Main Status”: depicts status alarm indicators and meters.
“Main Settings”: is used to configure system-level macro settings.
“Filter Settings” contains the settings that can be configured for each
filter window.
Never operate the system without adequate Load/Termination on the
Donor/Base and Service/Side T/R port. The 800 MHz Signal Booster will amplify
until 120dB gain any input stimulus greater than Rx Threshold level (Squelch).
The Web Server allows to Mute/Un-mute Power Amplifiers in “Main Settings”
page. Make sure the power amplifiers are un-muted before start with the
test.
