For highest performance and reliability, it is advised to minimize the length of RF cable, and
associated transmission system losses between the antenna and the radio’s RF port.
The EX-2.4i provides connection for any of the following data communication interfaces, or a
combination thereof:
• 100BaseT Fast Ethernet, up to line-speed (100Mbps full-duplex user Ethernet data rate)
• 1-4xT1/E1 interfaces for synchronous voice traffic
• DS-3 interfaces for synchronous voice traffic
The EX-2.4i is powered by a direct DC connection (48V) or by an optional external AC adaptor
(sold separately).
