Exalt i-Series Installation and Management Guide

The EX-4.9i utilizes frequencies in the 4940-4990MHz range, and is typically a licensed
band reserved for use by Public Safety agencies and applications. This band is not
generally available outside of North America.
In almost all cases, either for license-exempt or other designation, the product itself must
be authorized for use in your country. Either Exalt or Exalt’s agent must have applied for
certification or authorization to allow the sale and deployment of the system within the
country. It is also possible that only certain versions or configurations of the device are
allowed within a particular country. Please contact Exalt or your authorized Exalt
representative for information pertaining to your country.
Note: It is the professional installer’s responsibility to ensure that
the radio system is implemented in a legal fashion. Exalt is not liable
for any unsafe or illegal installations.
Basic Features
The i-Series Digital Microwave Radios are single integrated units intended for all-indoor
or enclosure-based mounting. The associated antenna is typically mounted on a tower or
rooftop mast structure with RF cabling running from the antenna location, with an egress
through the structure or enclosure, with proper lightning suppression and grounding, to
the RF connector of the radio. In turn, the communications interfaces and power
connections are directly applied to the radio, or in some cases, also with an egress
through the structure or radio enclosure with proper lightning or surge-suppression
devices and associated grounding.
