3.7 Cable compensation
You must set cable compensation if the total cable length between antennas
is greater than 500m/1640 feet.
3.7.1 About cable compensation
Cable length needs to be calculated when the distance in total cable length
between antennas is greater than 500m/1640 feet. This is to prevent the
DECT signals between antennas from becoming out of synchronization. If the
antennas are not synchronized, beltpack handover will not happen
effectively.
Setting cable compensation is particularly important if you have overlapping
antenna coverage zones (RF cells) or the beltpacks need to move between
coverage zones.
Example
Antenna 1: total cable length = 300m/984 feet.
Antenna 2: total cable length = 850m/2788 feet.
In this case, antenna cable length should be set.
