Using the Spectralink DECT Repeater With
ExternalAntenna
If coverage is needed in a remote area, synchronization can be established between the main sys-
tem and a repeater by use of an external antenna. The external antenna establishes a radio link
between the main system and a Spectralink DECT Repeater.
Note:
Only the Spectralink external antenna (part no. 0231 9705 - including 1 m connection
cable) is approved along with the Spectralink DECT Repeater. The external antenna is
delivered with a 1 m connection cable. The connection cable is also available in 3 m (part
no. 1400 2704 and 7.5 m (part no. 1400 2706).
The Spectralink DECT Repeater is automatically configured to the external antenna
when connected.
Below is an example of using a Spectralink DECT Repeater with external antenna.
A repeater is placed at a remote location and a base station is placed at the main location. They are
too far away to allow the repeater to extend the coverage of the base station. Therefore, an external
antenna can be used to establish a connection between the two end points. As the external antenna
is a high gain directional antenna, it must point towards the base station you want to link with.
The radio link way must be stable and free of moving objects. The RSSI level of the main system at
the Spectralink DECT Repeater placed remotely must not be lower than 75.
Note:
Inside the area named "radio link" there is no radio coverage for handsets.
