Antenna Relay Option (Option X371)
The antenna relay option allows a single antenna to be used for both
transmit and receive operation. Stations equipped with the antenna relay
option are shipped with the antenna relay module installed in the antenna
bracket on the station Backplane, and with the rf cables from the Power
Amplifier Module and to the Receiver Module connected as shown in
Figure 8 -2 . A single N-type connector in the center is provided for connection
to a single Tx/Rx antenna. The antenna relay module is controlled
by a signal from the Nucleus Advanced Control Module via a three-wire
cable connected between the antenna relay module and Connector J23 on
the Backplane.
Connect the single transmit/receive antenna rf cable to the center N-type
connector on the antenna relay module.
