8.5. Connecting a Third-Party External Antenna
(Optional)
The SPR model with an N-type connector can be connected to an external antenna.
The addition of an external antenna allows greater RF sector coverage than the
standard SPR internal antenna models (i.e., 60°).
! Connector: N-type male
Figure 8-12: Example of an N-type connector
! Cable: RF coaxial
Warnings:
1) Before connecting the external antenna, ensure that the SPR is NOT
connected to the power source.
2) Before powering on the SPR, ensure that some type of equiment such as
an antenna or an RF attenuator is connected to the N-type receptacle. This
eliminates the risk of burning the SPR device.
3) It is the responsibility of the person installing the WipLL system to ensure
that when using the outdoor antenna kits in the United States (or where FCC
rules apply), that only those antennas certified with the product are used. The
use of any antenna other than those certified with the product is expressly
forbidden in accordance with FCC rules CFR47 part 15.204. The installer
should configure the output power level of antennas according to country
regulations and per antenna type
