A. Equipment case and set up
Holy Cross Hospital Silver Spring maintains a Pelican case with two Kenwood TM-D710GA
dual band FM transceivers. The TX/RX units are installed on a plate in the case. The power
supply is installed under the plate and wired to the TX/RX units. The operation panels (aka
control heads), microphones, and speakers are stored under the plate with associated connection
cables. The antennas are wired to N connectors mounted on a wall plate. The antenna cables
have an N connector for the wall plate end and a PL-259 connector for the TX/RX end. Setting
up is a matter of connecting the antenna cables, plugging in the operation panels and microphone
or headset, and plugging in the attached power cord. Finally, a laptop computer can be
connected to the operation panel.
