1 Product Appearance
1.1 Front Panel
RF Button
Press the RF button to turn the RF signal ON (inside blue light will light up).
Press the RF button again to turn the RF signal OFF (inside blue light will be off).
LED_PWR
Blue light will be on when the DC voltage of internal power supply is within the normal range
(48 VDC ~ 52 VDC).
Blue light will flash when the DC voltage of internal power supply is out of the normal range (48
VDC ~ 52 VDC).
Blue light will be off when the external power supply is turned off, or internal power supply
module does not work.
LED_FWD
Blue light will be on when RF_OUT has power output.
Blue light will be off when the RF button is turned off, or the PA enters the auto-protection mode
and therefore shuts down its RF output. There are several situations which will result in
auto-protection mode, such as the input power is too high, the reflected power is too high, or the
temperature is too high.
LED_RFL
Red light will be off when the reflected power is normal. (Threshold configurable)
Red light will be on when the reflected power is too high. It may be caused by no load connected
to port RF_OUT. In this case, the PA will enter auto-protection mode and there will be no RF
output.
LED_TEMP
Red light will be off when temperature is normal (≤ 140 oF).
Red light will be on when system temperature is too high (> 140 oF). It may be caused by a
broken cooling system. In this situation, the PA will enter auto-protection mode and there will be
no RF output.
Note:
1) The front fan covers can be removed to clean the air intake path. No screw driver is needed, and no
disassembly of the PA is required.
2) When a warning occurs and the PA enters auto-protection mode, the only way to clear this state is to
cycle power on the PA module once the problem(s) is resolved. Otherwise all warning LEDs will
remain on even if the problem(s) no longer exists.

1.2 Back Panel
RF_IN
Connector: N
Impedance: 50 Ω
Rated Power: +1.76 dBm ± 1 dB
Note: If input power from RF_IN is lower than rated input value, the output power will be lower
than rated output power accordingly. This is because the PA has a fixed gain of 50 dB ± 1 dB. If
the input level from RF_IN is higher than the rated value, it will result in RF output distortion
and performance deterioration. If the input level is more than 1 dB higher than the rated value or
the output power is higher than 140 W, it may trigger the current-limiting function of the internal
power supply. The PA will enter the auto-protection mode, and there will be no RF output.
RF_OUT
Connector: N
Impedance: 50 Ω
Rated Power: 140 W (+51.46 dBm)
Note: RF_OUT must be connected with a load, otherwise the PA will enter the auto-protection
mode and there will be in no RF output. Please note that the PA is designed to withstand any load
conditions, including no load at all, without damaging the PA. However it is strongly suggested
to have a load connected with proper impedance.
MONITOR (loop out of RF_OUT)
Connector: BNC female
Impedance: 50 Ω
Rated Power: +1 dBm ± 3 dB
Note: It is OK to leave this port open without load.
RS232-A
Connector: DB9-M
Note: Connected to REMOTE (RS232) port ofACT-5X, which is used
for control and communication between the PA and the exciter.
RS232-B:
Connector: DB9-M
Note: For customers’remote control to both the PA and the exciter (The
exciter REMOTE(RS232) port is connected to the PA RS232-A
port)

RJ45
Connector: 10M/100M Ethernet
Note: For customers’remote control to the PA.
FWD
Connector: SMA
Input Level: -20 to +10 dBm
Note: External Coupler Forward sample for PA_FWD Power Meter.
REF
Connector: SMA
Input Level: -20 to +10 dBm
Note: External Coupler Reflected sample for PA_REF Power Meter.
Note:
1) The back fan covers can also be removed to clean the air intake path. No screw driver is needed, and
no disassembly of the PA is required.
2 Specifications
Environment

Operation Humidity: 20 % ~ 90 % (non-condensing)
Atmospheric Pressure: 86 kPa ~ 106 kPa
Power Supply

Frequency: 47 ~ 63 Hz
RF Performance
Frequency: 473 MHz ~ 794 MHz
VSWR: ≤ 1.5

Note
1) The electrical interface characteristics are measured at rated power. Values may change.
2) Operating in abnormal conditions may result in damage to the equipment. Long operating hours in
severe environments may reduce the reliability of the entire system, which may cause permanent
damage to equipment. Make sure all electrical interface characteristics and environmental parameters
are within the defined range listed above before operating this equipment.

3 Control Interface
3.1 Local Control Interface
Local control and monitoring of the PA unit is accomplished via the ACT-5X Exciter front panel user
interface. Use a standard serial cable to connect the PA D9 RS232-A port to theACT-5X Exciter D9
REMOTE (RS232) port. With this connection established, all the PA information will be displayed in the
PAC sub-menu in the advanced menu ofACT-5X exciter, as shown below:

a login window to pop up.
There are two tiers of web interface available. The first “guest” tier is limited in monitoring and control,
allowing users to retrieve information such as PA status, network configuration, and alarms. The guest
account is accessed with a user name and password of "guest" and "guest" (case sensitive). The second
“admin” tier provides full status and control of the PA and is accessed with a username and password of
"anywavecom" and "anywavecom" (case sensitive).
