Modem Antenna Connectors

Caution

Caution

The GSP-1620 modem has two (2) MCX snap-in connectors for the antenna leads, connecting the DRA antenna to the modem:

•Transmit (Tx) lead is labeled J3.

•Receive (Rx) lead is labeled J7.

When you connect antenna cables, be careful to connect the Tx connector on the antenna to the Tx connector (J3) on the modem, and the Rx connector on the antenna to the Rx connector (J7) on the modem. Crossing the Tx and Rx cables can damage the modem.

The MCX connectors are secured only by a solder joint and are not designed to withstand excessive force. When cables are connected to these connectors, care must be taken to ensure adequate strain relief is provided.

Data and Control Ports

The Data and Control ports are combined into a single DB-25 male upright connector, which provides the primary user interface:

•The connector contains two (2) 9-pin serial ports, DC power leads, and a reset lead.

•Line speed for the Data port is variable between 300 bps and 115.2 kbps. (This is different from the over-the-air Data port rate, which is 9600 bps.)

•Line speed for the Control port is fixed at 9600 bps.

•Signaling uses 8 bits, no parity and 1 stop bit (8,N,1).

•All ports are ESD and short-circuit protected.
