For downtilt mounting use the clamps for an appropriate mast diameter together with the downtilt kit.
Wall mounting: No additional mounting kit needed.

Material: Reflector screen: Weather-proof aluminum.

Fiberglass housing: It covers totally the internal antenna components.
The special design reduces the sealing areas to a minimum and
guarantees the best weather protection. Fiberglass material guarantees
optimum performance with regards to stability, stiffness, UV resistance
and painting. The colour of the radome is light grey.
All screws and nuts: Stainless steel.
Grounding: The metal parts of the antenna including the mounting kit are
DC grounded. The inputs 824 – 960 MHz are also DC grounded.
The inputs 1710 – 2180 MHz are coupled capacitively.
Environmental conditions: Kathrein cellular antennas are designed to operate under the environ- Adjustment mechanism

Please note: As a result of more stringent legal regulations and judgements regarding product liability, we are
obliged to point out certain risks that may arise when products are used under extraordinary operating
conditions.
Subject to alteration.

The mechanical design is based on the environmental conditions as stipulated in ETS 300 019-1-4, which
includes the static mechanical load imposed on an antenna by wind at maximum velocity.
Extraordinary operating conditions, such as heavy icing or exceptional dynamic stress (e.g. strain caused by
oscillating support structures), may result in the breakage of an antenna or even cause it to fall to the ground.
These facts must be considered during the site planning process.

The installation team must be properly qualified and also be familiar with the relevant national safety
936.2701/b

regulations.
The details given in our data sheets have to be followed carefully when installing the antennas and
accessories.
The limits for the coupling torque of RF-connectors, recommended by the connector manufacturers
must be obeyed.

Any previous datasheet issues have now become invalid.
