Hardware Installation of the Raven
Antennas selected should not exceed a maximum gain of 5 dBi under standard installation configuration. In more complex installations (such as those requiring long lengths of cable and/ or multiple connections), it’s imperative that the installer follow maximum dBi gain guidelines in accordance with the
radio communications regulations of the Federal Communica‐ tions Commission (FCC), Industry Canada, or your country’s
regulatory body (if used outside the US).

•RSS‐133 r1 (2 GHz Personal Communications)

Your Raven will work with most Dual‐Band PCS cellular antennas with a TNC connector that works in the high and low frequencies of the cellular technology of your modem. Connect the primary antenna or primary RF cable directly to the antenna connector on the back of the Raven.
Tip: When using a cable to an antenna placed away from the modem, minimize the length of your cable. All gain from a more advantageous antenna placement can be lost with a long cable to the modem.
Connecting to Power
Your Raven can be used with either DC, available in most automobiles, or 110 AC, standard US wall power, with the appropriate power adapter. DC cables and AC adapters are available as optional accessories in addition to the one included with your Raven.
The DC power cable positive lead should be connected to the battery or power source positive terminal. The power cable negative lead should be connected to the battery or power source negative terminal.
