Optional antenna cable

General

Double screen 50

coaxial cable must be used for connection be-

tween the TPU and the various Antenna Units.

The coax cable should be secured by laying the cable in a tube and/
or by fastening the cable to avoid damage.

A "pigtail" is normally required for connection to the TPU.

The maximum length of the coax cable is limited by the DC and RF
loss through the cable:

Maximum DC loss: R loop 0.6 ohm

Maximum RF attenuation at 1525-1660 MHz: < 10 dB

The table below lists suitable double screened coax cables:
