Antenna Connection
The base station is supplied with two (2) antennas. One
The frequency range of the antennas should match the receiver and transmitter of the base station. Match the color code on the antenna with the color code on the base station.

Antenna Polarization
The Telex Wireless Intercom System is “Vertically Polarized”. This means both the transmitting and receiving antennas should operate in the vertical position.
Distance between Antennas
The distance between the base station’s receive and transmit antennas is not adjustable when the antennas are connected di- rectly on the back of the unit.
The antennas can be remoted for better signal path. A Telex coax assembly with remote antennas may be required. See "Accessory" section fr ordering information.
NOTE: If your base station is to be located in a shielded rack mount enclosure or other poor RF location, you must remote the
Antenna Placement
Proper antenna placement probably has the most effect on your TELEX Wireless Intercom System’s overall perfor- mance. The following suggestions will result in optimum per- formance.
Proper placement of the beltpack can be critical. The antennas should be in the open. Bending the antennas up and placing the beltpack in a pocket, etc., will reduce system distance.
It is suggested that the unit be worn on the belt or pocket with
both antenna’s vertical for best operating range and perfor- | |
mance. |
