700/800/900 MHz Antenna Line Coupler, Suits APM748 and APM8769 Series
The APM provides comprehensive RF performance measurement, monitoring and alarming of Tx forward and reflected powers, combiner losses, and Rx RSSI levels on a truly channelized basis – for up to 80 channels.
It also provides unique measurement, monitoring and alarming of the Rx subsystem (Rx Antenna/TTA/RMC), Tx-to-Rx Antenna Isolation(s), and Tx-to-Rx Carrier Rejection performance. The Antenna Line Coupler(s) is inserted after the Tx combiner on the antenna feeder cable. All frequencies, channel bandwidths and level thresholds are software definable. A DB15 rear mounted connector provides alarm relay outputs that can be hardwired into most alarm reporting facilities. Configuration, diagnostics and communication management are facilitated through the use of an on-board webserver GUI. The APM is available in four different bands covering VHF, UHF, 7/800MHz and 8/900MHz frequency ranges.
- True channelized power and VSWR metering for multi-channel, digital and analog systems.
- Non-intrusive measurement of Tx forward and reflected power and Rx RSSI levels for up to 80 channels – and System Rx Subsystem, Antenna Isolation(s) and Tx-to-Rx Carrier Rejection performance
- Accommodates up to four (or more) separate transmitter combiners
- Integral webserver GUI for Measurement value, History Chart and Alarm Status viewing, and unit configuration
- Supplied with one Antenna Line Coupler, additional couplers ordered separately
- Supported by Genesis GenWatch® and C² Systems SitePortal® software packages
- Supports SNMP GET and Traps, SMTP (Email), and Relay outputs for alarm reporting
- Optional Site Alarm Module (SAM) and Receive Systems Module (RSM) for enhanced functionalityIt also provides unique measurement, monitoring and alarming of the Rx subsystem (Rx Antenna/TTA/RMC), Tx-to-Rx Antenna Isolation(s), and Tx-to-Rx Carrier Rejection performance.
