Roof-top Antenna
WARNING: Only LGC personnel or LGC-authorized installation per-
sonnel should connect the Unison Main Hub to a base station or
repeater. Exceeding the maximum input power could cause failure of
the Main Hub (refer to Section 6.1 on page 6-3 for maximum power
specifications). If the maximum composite power is too high, attenua-
tion is required.
NOTE: The UPLINK and DOWNLINK ports cannot handle a DC power feed
from a base station. If DC power is present, a DC block must be used or the
main hub may be damaged.
