Connecting to DAS
All our PCS as well as Cellular BDAs can have the ‘AGC’ function enabled
and the ‘Downlink AGC Level’ set from 0dBm to whichever value is
specified by the manufacturer for common DAS applications.
PCS: lowest DL AGC value 0dBm
To get output power on the Downlink side of
the BDA even lower to plug into a DAS system,
the use of 5dB or 10dB attenuators/pads with
the proper tolerance of wattage is
recommended.
For any other issues, contact ADRF Tech Support at 1-800-313-9345 or 1-323-514-9070
