27 Tempest®24 00 2 -Channel Wireless Intercom System
To remotely locate antenna always use high quality, low loss, 50 ohm RF cable terminated with an RP-TNC connector for
the BaseStati on side connecti on and the appropriate antenna mati ng connector on the other end. LMR-195 (or equivalent)
coaxial cables can sati sfactorily be used in lengths up to 10 feet. LMR-400 coaxial cables (or equivalent) can be used at
lengths up to 25 feet. Longer RF coaxial cable runs are not recommended due to signal att enuati on in the cable.
When locati ng the antenna at distances greater than 25 feet, use the opti onal Tempest Remote Transceiver. The remote
transceiver allows locati ng antennas up to 1,500 feet away from the BaseStati on without the RF signal loss that is associated
with using RF cable. The antenna can be mounted directly to the Tempest Remote Transceiver, or they can be separated
from the remote transceiver using high quality, low loss, 50 ohm RF cable as listed above. See the Tempest Remote Transceiver
secti on of this manual for more informati on on the setup and use of the remote transceiver.

Install the BaseStati on in a convenient locati on and use the Tempest
Remote Transciever connected with CAT 5 cable and RJ-45 connectors
to positi on antenna
s in the most suitable locati on. Use omni-directi onal
antennas on the Transeiver or use short lengths of LMR-195 coaxial cable
to separate antennas for additi onal spati al diversity.
Pairs of Directi onal Antennas must be aimed to
cover the same area.
