1User’s ManualSafety PrecautionsSafety PrecautionsWarningOpening the iDEN MINI could result in electric shock and may cause severe injury.WarningConnect the equipment frame ground to building ground.Warning Operating the iDEN MINI with antennas in very close proximity facing each other could lead to severe damage to the repeater.CautionRF EXPOSURE INFORMATIONA minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be maintained between the user and the external antenna of repeater to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at www.fcc.govCautionThis equipment is for indoor use and enables the communication wiring to communicate only inside the building.

3User’s ManualGlossaryThe following is a list of abbreviations and terms used in this manual.GlossaryALC (Automatic Level Control)ALC feature prevents the repeater from exceeding its maximum output power by reducing the gain automatically. ALC is used to adjust the gain to an appropriate level for a range of input signal levels. ASD (Automatic Shutdown)Automatic shut down protects the repeater from the oscillation or excessive input signal and eliminates any degradation to the network.There are three parameters: ASD LEVEL, ASD TIME and ASD COUNT.If the output power gets higher than “ASD LEVEL”, the repeater will shut down for“ASD TIME” seconds and then it will turn the amp back on to measure the output power again. If this repeats at “ASD COUNT” times, the repeater will shut down completely.AbbreviationACALCANTASDDCGNDGUIiDENLEDPSURFTEMPVSWRDefinitionAlternating CurrentAutomatic Level ControlAntennaAutomatic ShutdownDirect Current GroundingGraphic User InterfaceIntegrated Digital Enhanced NetworkLight Emitting DiodePower Supply UnitRadio FrequencyTemperatureVoltage Standing Wave Ratio
41. IntroductioniDEN MINI repeater is used to fill out areas in iDEN mobile systems, such as base station fringe areas, business and industrial buildings, etc.iDEN MINI receives signals from a base station, amplifies and retransmits the signals to mobile stations. Also it receives, amplifies and retransmits signals in the opposite direction. Both directions are served simultaneously with the following features: • 7MHz or 18MHz-bandwidth service @ 800MHz’s • 5MHz-bandwidth service @ 900MHz’s • Adjustable Band Edge @ 800MHz’s and 900MHz’s • Roll Offs: 65dBc at 0.5MHz outside pass-bandOverview: ServiceRepeaterDonorAntennaPlugged in anAC outletDonorBase StationServer Mobile StationServerAntenna817MHz18MHz-bandwidth824MHz806MHz862MHz869MHz851MHz 901MHz896MHziDEN 800 iDEN 900940MHz935MHz7MHz-bandwidth18MHz-bandwidth 5MHz-bandwidth 5MHz-bandwidth7MHz-bandwidthiDEN 800 UL iDEN 800 DL iDEN 900 UL iDEN 900 DLiDEN 800 UL iDEN 800 DL iDEN 900 UL iDEN 900 DL
