3.4.5.1 Antenna Output
Warning BEFORE connecting the GG864-2.4 to a power supply source, suitable
antennas shall be connected and properly installed.
The antenna has to be installed with care to avoid any interference with other electronic devices
and has to guarantee a minimum distance from the body (20 cm). in case this requirement cannot
be satisfied, the system integrator has to assess the final product against the SAR regulation.
For a good efficiency of the antenna and a minimum interference with other electronic systems, a
space of min. 40 cm around the radiating part should be left free of electrically conducting materials.
The less distance and the fewer obstacles between the SWS-GW antenna and the antenna of the
GSM/GPRS network base station, the less power is radiated by the gateway and the better signal
quality is achieved.
