Powerwave Technologies Inc. reserves the right to make changes to documentation and equipment, including
but not limited to component substitution and circuitry changes. Changes that impact this document may be
subsequently incorporated in a later revision of this document.
This Powerwave product is designed to operate within the Normal Operating (typical operating) ranges or con-
ditions specified in this document. Operation of this equipment beyond the specified ranges in this document
may cause (1) spurious emissions that violate regulatory requirements; (2) the equipment to be automatically
removed from service when maximum thresholds are exceeded; or (3) the equipment to not perform in accor-
dance with its specifications. It is the Operator's responsibility to ensure this equipment is properly installed and
operated within Powerwave operating specifications to obtain proper performance from the equipment and to
comply with regulatory requirements.
The rated output power of a WRH-V it is for multiple carriers. As long as the composite power does not exceed
the rated power (20W for North America), derating is not required for multiple carriers. For situations where
regulatory requirements require reduced interference to adjacent band users, the rating would have to be
reduced by 3 dB. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an atten-
uator at the output of the device. Input power is rated at 115/230VAC, 50/60Hz, and should be protected based
on the power and fuse specifications in Chapter 5 of this manual. Power strips should, at a minimum, conform
to this requirement to prevent equipment damage and possible overload.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
CRF47 part 15 of the FCC rules. This equipment is also certified to CRF47 part 22 (cellular), part 24 (PCS) and
part 90 (iDEN800 and iDEN900) of the FCC Rules depending on the band of operation. Changes or modifica-
tions not expressly approved by Powerwave Technologies, Inc. for compliance could void the user’s authority
to operate this equipment. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer-
ence when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely
to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
Industry Canadian Requirements
All Powerwave apparatus introduced in the Canadian market meet all requirements of the Canadian Interfer-
ence-Causing Equipment Regulations. The -20dB bandwidth at 1900 MHz band is 80 MHz. The -20dB band-
width at the 850 MHz is 34 MHz. The output impedance of the unit referenced in this document is 50 Ohms.
The -20dB bandwidth at IDEN 800MHz band is 26 MHz.
The input signal is optical so input impedance requirements are not applicable.
European Requirements
The Powerwave WRH-V apparatus introduced in EU markets are certified to ESTI EN 300 609-4 (GSM900 and
DCS1800) and ESTI EN 301 908-11 (WCDMA).
