13.2.2 Antenna Choices – 5.8 GHz
The integrated antenna has a gain of 23 dBi.
In non-FCC regions antenna choice is not restricted but any region specific EIRP limit should
be obeyed, see
1189HTable 6 in Section 1190H5.3 “Region Codes”
In FCC regions external antennas from the list in Section
1191H13.7 “1192HAntennas for USA / Canada”
can be used with the Connectorized version of the 600 Series Bridge. These are approved by
the FCC for use with the product and are basically constrained by the following limits:
• Single Polarization Flat Plate Antennas – up to 28dBi per antenna.
• Single/Dual Polarization Parabolic Dish Antennas – up to 37.7dBi per polarization or
antenna.
In FCC regions when using external antennas – cable loss between the connectorized
version of the 600 Series Bridge and the antenna ports must not be less than 1.2dB
