Trailblazer Installation and User Manual version 1.03

Using this example one can calculate the following:

Note that the radio is calibrated for a maximum output power of +7dBm.

Subtract the interconnecting cable and lightning protection losses of 2dB = total power

arriving to antenna of 15dBm. .

For 5.8 – 5.9GHz, the FCC allows a maximum EIRP of 23dBm. This would mean that

an antenna with a gain of 16dBi would be acceptable with no cable losses.

Following this guideline ensures compliance with the maximum transmitter ERP allowed

with the antenna provided as a system.

4.2.3 RF Safety Hazard Warning

Due to the substantial energy radiated from these antennas, it is imperative that they

never be mounted such that the antenna or the cabinet containing the antenna will be

closer than 2 Meters (6.7 Feet) to any persons.
