6. ACCESSORY INSTALLATION
This chapter introduces some of the accessories available for specific
installations, and describes how to install them.
6.1. TPA 24 Transmit Power Amplifier (Booster)
The TPA 24 transmit power amplifier is used to amplify the transmit power
to a fixed output of 24 dBm (250 mW). The TPA 24 is especially useful
when long RF cable runs are required. In addition, the TPA 24 simplifies
antenna alignment by enabling the use of wider dispersion transmit antennas
(12 dBi maximum). The TPA 24 is internally protected against lightning
and voltage surge protection.
There are two models:
• The TPA 24 NL receives input power in the range of -10dBm to 0dBm.
• The TPA 24 NH receives an input power of 0dBm to +10dBm. Both
models then amplify the input power to a fixed output level of 24dBm
(250mW).
The TPA is powered by 12VDC carried from the power inserter by the RF
cable.
Note: The TPA 24 is not available in the USA due to FCC regulations.
When used in compliance with ETSI regulations, the TPA 24 can be
connected to cables and antennas resulting in a total transmitted power of
20dBm (100 mW) EIRP.
For technical specifications, refer to section 9.2.2 Specifications for TPA 24
Transmit Power Amplifier.
