1-4 Calculate Transmit Power

In order to obtain the best performance of booster and system, user must

calculate the transmission power to meet the booster technical

requirement and FCC regulations(See Appendix B). It is advised that the

user follows the calculation below:

1. Converter power of the access point from milliwatts to dBm.

Note: dBm = 10 * Log(milliwatts)

2. Determine the attenuation of cable(please refer to manufacturer’s

specifications)

Note: Suggest the cable loss between booster and DC injector should not

exceed 10 dBm generally.

Table A – Typical Cable Attenuation Values

Cable Type Attenuation dB/100ft @2.4GHz

RG-142 21

LMR200 16.5

LMR400 6.6

LMR600 4.4

LMR900 2.92

Belden 9913 7.1

Note: Values are approximate.
