Connect the equipment frame ground to the building ground. Operating the APEX 1900-24 with antennas in very close proximity facing each other can lead to severe damage to the repeater. RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be maintained between the user and the external antenna of the repeater to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov This equipment is for indoor use only and enables the communication wiring to communicate inside the building.

Abbreviation AC ANT ATT CDMA DC DL GND GUI LED PLL PSU RF RSSI TEMP UL VSWR Definition Alternating Current Antenna Attenuator / Attenuation Code Division Multiple Access Direct Current Downlink Grounding Graphic User Interface Light Emitting Diode Phase-locked loop Power Supply Unit Radio Frequency Received Signal Strength Indication Temperature Uplink Voltage Standing Wave Ratio AGC (Automatic Gain Control) AGC feature prevents the repeater from exceeding its maximum output power by reducing the gain automatically. AGC is used to adjust the gain to an appropriate level for a range of input signal levels. ASD (Automatic Shutdown) ASD does not: 1. prevent oscillation 2. protect from excessive input. ASD helps protect the amplifier from over load. ASD helps protect the network by preventing excessive signal output power. There are three parameters: ASD Level, ASD Time, and ASD Iteration. If the output power exceeds higher than the “ASD LEVEL”, the repeater will shut down for “ASD TIME” seconds and it will turn the amp back on to measure the output power again. If this repeats at “Iteration” times, the repeater will shut down completely. 1. Introduction APEX1900-24 is used to fill out areas in APEX1900-24 systems, such as base station fringe areas, business and industrial building, etc. APEX1900-24 receives signals from a base station, amplifies and retransmits the signals to the mobile stations. It also receives, amplifies and retransmits signals in the opposite direction. Both directions are served simultaneously with the following features: APEX 1900-24 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 < Basic Organization > APEX1924 Key Features ◈ Design(Each BDA is possible to service selected channels by the user within a band.) - Possible to select any channel combination within a band caused by the Digital Filter. - Using the Digital Filter: High quality, out of band rejection, high performance ◈ User friendly design. - Local monitoring and control through the Web GUI interface - Remote monitoring and control through the Remote Access and Control - Reports the status of connection as a function of SNMP regularly and reports an alarm if the event occurred. ◈ Protection function - Isolation Check - Auto Gain Control - Auto Shutdown 2.
