10 RSSI LED Plug Adapter for Antenna Alignment
The RSSI LED Plug is a small adapter that allows you to accurately position (align) the ProST for
optimal radio frequency signal reception with the Base Station. The RSSI LED Plug adapter
provides LEDs that indicate the ProST's received signal strength (RSS) with the Base Station.
Once the RSSI LED Plug adapter is connected, you need to orientate the ProST (or third-party
external antenna) to the position where the RSSI LEDs display the highest RSS measurements.
The RSSI LED Plug adapter connects between the ProST and SDA by a CAT 5e cable(s). The
RSSI LED Plug adapter provides two 15-pin D-type ports: one for the ProST side, and the other
for the SDA side.
The RSSI LED Plug adapter can be connected in one of the following manners:
¾ One end connects directly to the ProST's 15-pin D-type port, and the other end connects
to the SDA (IDU adapters) by a CAT 5e cable.
¾ Both ends connect to the ProST and SDA by a CAT 5e cable.
The following describes the RSS LED Plug adapter's cable setup:
¾ Cables: two straight-through cables for connecting the RSSI LED adapter to both the
SDA and ProST
¾ Connectors:
• ProST side: 15-pin D-type male (only 6 pins used)
• RSSI LED Plug adapter:
o ProST side: 15-pin D-type female
o SDA side: 15-pin D-type male
• SDA side: 15-pin D-type male
