Appendix C
Outdoor Unit Recommendations
For TX IFL cable lengths less than those listed in the following table, an in-line attenuator should be inserted into
the cable. ComStream recommends the use of a Radyne ComStream attenuator, part number 17-0107-101. The
attenuator ensures a minimum dynamic range of 15 dB in the output power.
The minimum cable length should be used as a guide by the system integrators and installers as an approximation
only.
The maximum cable length is 100 meters in all installations.
Radyne ComStream strongly recommends the use of Times Microwave LMR-400 TX IFL cable and Times Fiber
RG11 quad-shielded Rx cable. For information on ordering LMR-400 or RG-11 cable, refer to the appendix on
cable specifications.
