50 ohms.
WARNING! YOU CAN BE KILLED!
The Trailblazer system is designed to be installed by professionally trained installers
only! Failure to follow basic installation procedures and safety precautions can result in
one or all of: damage to tools and/or equipment, interference with and/or damage to
other equipment or accessories, violation of safety code, local laws and/or building
codes, personal injury or even death.
Detached antennas, whether installed indoors or out, should be installed ONLY by
experienced antenna installation professionals who are familiar with local building and
safety codes and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government
regulatory authorities. Failure to do so may void the CWT product warranty and may
expose the end user to legal and financial liabilities."
"Regulations regarding maximum antenna gains vary from country to country. It is the
responsibility of the end user to operate within the limits of these regulations and to
ensure that the professional installer is aware of these regulations, as well. "
Installations of the Trailblazer System require topographic analysis, site survey, and link
budget calculation; therefore CWT trained professionals are required to perform the
installation.
