What is the Maximum Antenna Cable length?
When using the standard supply Antenna cable (RW-00135), the maximum cable length between the Antenna & PSU is 50M
There are options available to extend this distance as detailed in the below table :
MAX Length | Cable Type | Remarks | |
Antenna > PSU | 50M | RW-00135 | - |
Antenna > PSU | 100M | RW-9600 | LAN Signal Convertor Kit required |
Antenna > PSU | 460M | RW-9600 + Ships cables | LAN Signal Convertor Kit required + 2 x RJB-001 Junction boxes |
What is a LAN Signal Convertor Kit?
The LAN Signal convertor allows the use of the older RW-9600 antenna cable, perfect for retro-fits and cases where you need to extend the distance between the Antenna & PSU beyond 50M.
The LAN Signal Convertors are installed inside the Antenna and PSU.
There are different types of LAN Signal Convertor Kits depending on the type of Antenna :
RADAR | Convertor Kit |
Magnetron Antenna | OP03-223-3 |
Solid State Antenna (NXT) | OP03-223-4 |
If the distance between the Antenna & PSU does not exceed 100M, you can wire the RW-9600 directly into the respective units.
If the distance between the Antenna & PSU does exceed 100M, you will need to use 2 x RJB-001 Junction boxes and Ships supply cables :
- RW-9600 cable between the Antenna & RJB-001
- RG-12/UY & 3 x DPYCY-6 Ships cable between the 2 x RJB-001
- RW-9600 cable between PSU & RJB-001
Are there any other Maximum cable lengths to consider?
