ANTENNA AND CABLE CONFIGURATIONS
Warning: Only the tested cable lengths and antennas provided by EST meet the FCC and DOC maximum peak output power
requirements. Any other combination of antennas or coax cables is not authorized. To reduce potential radio interference to
other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not
more than that permitted for successful communication.
EST offers different types of antennas for both indoor and outdoor configurations. This device has been designed to operate with
the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of 7 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 7 dB
are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

Antenna
Port A
Notes:
Antenna Port A is a transmit and receive port for use in all
applications.
Antenna Port B is a receive only port and is used for dual
diversity antennas applications only. This port is not used
for point to point applications.
Warnings:
Only pre-made coax cables from the factory used in
conjunction with either the AA20Es900 omni-directional
and AA203Es900 directional antennas meet all FCC
Section 15.247(b) EIRP maximum power requirements.
