TELCOSAT RBB850 Document use is restricted to that described on cover 8 The TELCOSAT RBB 850 is a bidirectional amplifier system consisting of UPLINK and DOWNLINK amplifiers. When conventional cellular communication systems cannot penetrate a structure, or reach a target area, such as inside buildings, parking structures, tunnels and remote areas, other methods and or equipment are required. To overcome coverage issues cellular repeaters can be deployed. Repeaters manufactured by Telcosat, Model RBB850 will alleviate many of these coverage issues. The Telcosat RBB850 repeater has full remote control, monitoring and alarm feature, accessible over the Internet or IP network. The RBB850 has an internal web interface and a user friendly GUI software interface. The GUI interface (Graphical User Interface) controls all functions of the repeater. The RBB850 repeater also comes with digital power control and oscillation detection and control. 1.2.1 Materials The RBB 850 Repeater is enclosed in a weather proof enclosure. System comes with instruction manual and attached power cord.

Fax: 1-403-291-3059 EMAIL: inquiries@telcosat.com CHAPTER 2 OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW 2.1 GENERAL The TELCOSAT RBB 850 provides service at cellular radio frequencies 824/849MHz & 869/894MHz. Downlink RF signals from a donor cell site are routed through a pick-up antenna, through a Diplexer then continues to be process by the amplifier chain. The RF signal is amplified and filtered to reject out-
TELCOSAT RBB850 Document use is restricted to that described on cover 10 of-band IM products and unwanted radio signals. The downlink RF is injected into a fill-in antenna (coverage antenna) for null-area coverage. The Up-link signals from mobile units are received into the coverage antenna of the repeater. The incoming signal then passes through a Diplexer, then amplified in the Up-link modules and finally the power amplifier. The Up-link process is the same as the Down-Link process. 2.2 OSCILLATION DETECTION The RBB 850 has an oscillation detection function. Upon detection of oscillation the repeater will shut down for a short duration, approximately 25 seconds. After 25 seconds the repeater will restart, reduce the RF gain and determine if the repeater is stable. The repeater will continue this process until the oscillations is eliminated. If oscillation cannot be eliminated the repeater will activate the disable mode and will cease to transmit. The repeater requires a power cycle to reset the auto oscillation detection process, or alternatively the repeater can be reactivated via the GUI web interface.

This is NOT a CONSUMER device. It is designed for an installation by FCC LICENSEES and QUALIFIED INSTALLERS. You MUST have an FCC LICENSE or express consent of an FCC licensee to operate this device. Unauthorized use may result in significant forfeiture penalties, including penalties of $100,000 for each continuing violation. INSTALLATION READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION 3.1 WARNING Cellular Repeaters should be installed by fully trained technicians. Improper installation and excessive RF power levels can cause interference with the operation of cellular towers. Antennas must be mounted in a secure safe manner and according to safe working practices. To protect your equipment, lightning protection hardware is recommended when installing a cellular repeater unit. Antennas must not be installed near overhead electrical power lines as this can cause serious injury and or death. If you require any additional installation guidelines then please consult your supplier or consult with an RF Systems Engineer.
TELCOSAT RBB850 Document use is restricted to that described on cover 12 3.2 TOOLS REQUIRED Spectrum analyzer with a tracking generator, frequency ranges 1 Gigahertz. Optional Signal Generator for onsite testing of the repeater, frequency range of 1 Gigahertz minimum. Antenna analyzer. Computer with all necessary cables. Multi-meter. Hand tools. Water proofing tape. Coax cable straps for support. Cellular Phone. 3.3 ANTENNA REQUIREMENTS ANTENNAS: please read your manufacturers antenna specifications before installation. Your antenna will require a type “N” connection. The antenna, coax, and fittings must be 50 ohms impedance. MAXIMUM ANTENNA SIZE CONNECTED TO THE RBB850 REPEATER IS 18dBi, The cellular repeater requires antennas that operate in the desired frequency range of the cellular repeater. The RBB850 Repeater has a frequency operating range of 824 to 849 Megahertz for the up- link, and 869 to894 Megahertz for the downlink. Your antennas must operate within these frequencies. Failure to select the proper antennas will degrade the performance of your repeater. NOTE: “UP-LINK” is the radio link from your hand held cellular phone to the cellular tower in the frequency range of 824/ 849 Megahertz “DOWN-LINK” is the radio link from the cellular tower to your cellular phone in the frequency range of 869 /894 Megahertz. 3.4 ANTENNA ISOLATION & COAX CABLES To protect wireless cellular networks from interference caused by oscillation, the RBB850 Repeater has internal automatic oscillation detection/control and auto shut down of the repeater. Improper installation practices could can initiate automatic shut-down of your repeater. All repeaters require antenna isolation to prevent oscillation. The usable gain level of your repeater is directly linked to the antenna isolation values. The maximum gain of your repeater must be adjusted to a minimum of 10 dB lower than your antenna isolation values. For example, if your antenna isolation value is 75dB then your maximum usable repeater gain is 65dB. Due to the variations of system layouts and requirements it is not possible to have one procedure that will suffice every installation. You are strongly advised to acquire the services of an RF system designer to calculate your antenna isolation requirements.
TELCOSAT RBB850 Document use is restricted to that described on cover 13 Ensure that your antennas are at the maximum possible distance apart. Do not place antennas in close proximity to each other; otherwise you will activate the oscillation detection process. Coax cables should be low loss 50 ohm, and suitable for 800 Mhz band frequency. Antenna connections should be clean and moisture free. Do not spray lubricant into the connectors as this prevents the signal traveling through the coax. Use a cleaning solvent that has no oil and does not leave any residue. High quality oil-less contact cleaner is suitable. All coax connectors must be water tight and wrapped with water proof tape. Any moisture in the connectors will degrade or eliminate the signals. 3.5 ANTENNA CONNECTIONS ON THE RBB850 The RBB850 can be installed indoors or outdoors. If mounted indoors ensure there is no elevated room temperatures and free flowing air for cooling of the repeater. Connect the antenna that is aimed at the Cell Tower to the bottom left side N connector. Connect the antenna that is aimed towards the Area Fill (target site) to the bottom right side N connector. Connect your Ethernet cable to the connector socket located on the left side of the power on LED light. NOTE; Water proof boot cover for the Ethernet connection, contact your Repeater supplier. 3.6 Aligning the Donor Antenna. With the aid of a spectrum analyzer, connect your Donor antenna (antenna aimed at the Cell tower) to your spectrum analyzer and adjust your antenna to the maximum receive signal level. This process assures the Donor antenna is accurately aligned to the cell tower. 3.7 Adjusting area fill coverage (down link) to the target site/location.
TELCOSAT RBB850 Document use is restricted to that described on cover 14 Accessing your RBB850 software interface, Increase your downlink receive signal in 2dB increments to the required receive level. You will see the receive signal bars on your cellular phone increase in strength. Use test and measuring equipment to accurately adjust the down link receive signal level. 3.8 Adjusting Uplink (Reverse Link) RF power to cellular tower. You are strongly advised to consult an RF Engineer to calculate the reverse link RF power settings. Too much RF signal transmitting to the cellular tower can cause interference and degrade the performance of the cellular tower causing service disruptions. This must be avoided 100% Accessing your RBB 850 software interface you can adjust your RF reverse link power settings. For basic settings start your reverse link RF power levels at the lowest setting. Increase your RF transmit level in 1 dB increments. After every adjustments try to make a call. If your call does not connect increase the power setting 1dB and try to make a call. Continue this process until a call is established. When you can connect to the cell tower the call should quickly connect and the calling process will immediately start and you will hear the dialing tone. At this point increase your power level an additional 2dB. Make a test call for connectivity quality. This is your minimum RF power transmit setting for the reverse link to the cell tower. Consult with the Wireless operator while you adjust your reverse link RF power settings. The operator can monitor the receive signals from your RBB 850 at the cell tower. They will instruct you if you can increase power or you need to decrease your power settings. If you follow this process and you cannot make a call you must turn the RBB850 off and disconnect your power cord. Consult with your RF Technician/Engineer to rectify the problem. 3.9 ADJUSTING REVERSE LINK MAXIMUM POWER LEVEL. Additional protection is gained if the reverse link maximum power level is adjusted to prevent the possibility of sudden unwanted high input RF levels. This can happen in various ways, mobile cellular vehicle boosters coming within range of the cellular repeaters, malfunctioning cellular phones, or other stray signals. The RBB850 has an adjustable Maximum allowable RF Power limit. The maximum allowable RF power limit is 25dBm. The digitally controlled attenuator will not permit RF signal levels greater than 25dBm. The user can decrease the maximum allowable RF transmit power from 25dBm to 0.0dBm. The microprocessor controlled digital attenuator will maintain the preset allowable RF transmit power limit regardless of unwanted high input signal levels. Decreasing the level of maximum RF reverse link power helps to reduce possible cellular tower interference for sudden elevated RF power, especially when the RBB850 repeater is installed in areas where the cellular towers are less than 5 kilometres (2 miles) distance.
