PTP 54600 FCC antenna restrictions
In FCC regions, external antennas from the list in Table 4-46 can be used with the
Connectorized version of the PTP 54600. These are approved by the FCC for use with
the product and are constrained by the following limit for Single/Dual Polarization
Parabolic Dish Antennas: up to 34.9 dBi (33.4 dBi for 5 MHz bandwidth) per
polarization or antenna.
However, the Maximum Transmit Power must be reduced to avoid exceeding the EIRP
limits.
In FCC regions when using external antennas, cable loss between the connectorized
version of the PTP 600 Series and the antenna ports must not be less than 1.2 dB.
CAUTION
Antennas not included in this table, or those having a gain greater than the
specified maximum, are strictly prohibited for use with the PTP 54600. The
required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
