8.5.2 Repeater (SAFEDLINK) FN2002-A1
If the FCnet/SAFEDLINK networking is to cover a distance >1000 m, a repeater
(SAFEDLINK) FN2002-A1 must be used to boost the signal.
The repeater is an intermediate amplifier and is not recognized as a station in the
FCnet/SAFEDLINK. It requires external power supply, possibly from one of the
↑ stations.
