Verizon User Manual Smart-Cell Repeater 1. INTRODUCTION Smart-Cell is a repeater, which has been designed to improve signals in blanket/shadow areas inside of buildings to transmit Verizon’s signals at 700MHz, 850MHz, 1900MHz, and 2100MHz frequencies. User may choose filtering configuration according to the specific site circumstances. 1.1. Warning 1.1.1 FCC Warning Statements 1) FCC Part 15.19 : This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Verizon User Manual Smart-Cell Repeater 4) FCC Part 27.5, IC SRSP-518 Antennas must be installed in accordance with FCC 27.50 and SRSP 518. Please note that EIRP based on antenna gain after accounting for cable loss should be less than 50 Watt (47 dBm) for Donor side. For Service side, with 2dBi gain antennas the height of the antenna above average terrain (HAAT) must not exceed 14.496 m. For different gain antennas refer to the relevant rules. 5) FCC Warning Label WARNING. This is NOT a CONSUMER device.
Verizon User Manual Smart-Cell Repeater 1.1.2. IC Warning state 1) RSS-GEN, Sec. 7.1.2 – (transmitters) Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. 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 necessary for successful communication.
Verizon User Manual Smart-Cell Repeater by 3.5 dB, especially where the output signal is re-radiated and can cause interference to adjacent band users. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an attenuator at the output of the device." 4) RF Radiation Exposure This equipment complies with RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
