Direct power to antenna is recommended. Local (direct) power will increase how
far antenna can be positioned from the Base
Antenna powered locally:
• Shielded Ethernet cable up to 800 m (2,625 feet) from base or
splitter.
Antenna powered from Base Station (1 antenna only):
• Shielded Ethernet cable, up to 300 m (984 feet) from base.
Note: Using heavier gauge cable will increase available distance.
For more information, see:
• Using the Antenna
• Site survey and RF issues
13.5 Powering the Antenna Splitter
The splitter MUST be powered locally. Power the splitter before you connect
it to the base, or it will take power from the base and this may be
insufficient.
Use the supplied power connector.
13.6 Recommended powering and cable lengths for
a FreeSpeak II Base System
Possible distance from Base Station to antenna
The Base Station can power 1 antenna to a distance of 300 meters (984
feet). More than one antenna and/or greater distances will need direct power
supplied to the antenna.
The figures in this table are based on
the use of 24AWG Cat5/6 cable
