MicroMAX Hardware Installation User Guide 18 Connecting Third-Party External Antennas This section describes the procedures for connecting third-party external radio and Global Positioning System (GPS) antennas to the BSR and BSDU, respectively. The implementation of these antennas depends on the BSR model (with respect to radio antennas) and the need for synchronization of the system (with respect to GPS antennas).
MicroMAX Hardware Installation User Guide The following lists the cable setup for attaching the external antenna: ¾ Cable: RF coaxial ¾ Connector: N-type male To connect a third-party external antenna to the MicroMAX: ¾ Connect the N-type male connector of the third-party antenna to the N-type receptacle located on the MicroMAX's panel (labeled ANTENNA), as displayed below. Figure 87 ‐ Antenna connection 18.
MicroMAX Hardware Installation User Guide Figure 88 ‐ BSDU rear panel GPS port Caution: To avoid electrical or fire hazard, ensure that the connection to the GPS is made prior to connecting the BSDU to the power supply.
MicroMAX Hardware Installation User Guide The connector pinouts for the GPS-to-BSDU 12-pin cabling are described in the table below.
MicroMAX Hardware Installation User Guide To connect the GPS antenna to the BSDU: 1. Connect the 12-pin female connector, at one end of the cable, to the 12-pin receptacle located on the underside of the GPS. 2. Connect the 15-pin D-type male connector, at the other end of the cable, to the 15-pin Dtype port labeled GPS located on the rear panel of the BSDU.
