Rack Mounting The rack mounting brackets come with each RKP-4. These brackets may be used to mount a single base station in a 19” wide rack or mount two base stations side by side in a rack. Figure 5-1 shows the three brackets that come with a base station. Rack Mounting a Single Base Station 1. Remove the four pan head screws (two on each side) [...]

Antenna Connection The base station is supplied with two (2) antennas. One 1/2-wave antenna for Transmit and one 1/2-wave for Receive. The antennas have TNC male connectors. The frequency range of the antennas should match the receiv - er and transmitter of the base station. Match the color code on the antenna with the color code on the base statio[...]

Keep the distance between the base station and the beltpacks as short as possible. The greater the distance, the weaker the signal. Make sure the “signal paths” between the base station and beltpacks are unobstructed. Y ou should be able to visibly locate the base station antennas at all times for best perform - ance. Attempting to operate the [...]
