4.7.3 Antenna Selection (Si CPE)
This option enables selection of either an internal antenna, an external (detached)
antenna or automatic antenna selection.
The available options are 0 (External), 1 to 6 (Internal), or 7 (Automatic).
The default is Automatic.
In Automatic antenna selection mode, all antennas are scanned during the
scanning process to find the best antenna. In addition, all antennas are scanned
continuously during normal operation (using the selected BST/AU and Rx
Frequency), and the selected antenna is always the best one. This fast scanning
process guarantees uniterrupted connectivity and optimal performance upon
possible occurrence of unintentional changes (such as a change in the placement
of the unit or insertion of an obstacle in the communication path).
The numbering plan of the internal antennas is described in the following figure:
4.7.4 Rx Attenuator
The Rx Attenuator option is applicable only for units operating in the 2.3 GHz
band. This option defines the attenuation that can be inserted in the receive path
to improve performance under certain strong interference conditions. This
optional attenuation is aimed primarily to reduce the impact of SDARS (Satellite
Digital Audio Radio Service) in the 2320-2345 MHz frequencies band. It is
