SAFETY SUMMARY
High voltage is used in the operation of
this equipment. Death on contact may
result if personnel fail to observe the
following safety precautions:
Only qualified trained personnel can install this equipment. Electrical connection and installation must
meet your local Electrical Safety Installation codes.
Prior to any maintenance or inspection of this device disconnect the power supply.
Do not remove covers or access plates on the equipment unless you are a trained technician and
authorized to carry adjustment and maintenance for this apparatus.
When installing antennas always be aware of high voltage overhead power lines. Contact with power
lines will result in severe injury and or death.
To prevent electrical shock or damage to the equipment, do not operate the repeater until you
thoroughly understand the operation and function of all controls, indicators, and connectors.
The RBB850 Repeater weighs approximately 25 lbs/ 12 kilograms. The repeater must be attached to the
appropriate supporting device using nuts, bolts and lock washers. Material grade, must be a minimum
Grade 5, 5/16th” (6mm) diameter and corrosion resistant.
FIRST AID
In case of electrical shock:
THIS PERSON COULD STILL BE IN CONTACT WITH ELECTRICAL POWER. DO NOT TOUCH THIS PERSON
BEFORE YOU INSULATE YOUR SELF FROM THE ELECTRICAL SOURCE.
Turn off the electrical power.
If you cannot turn off the electrical power, pull, push, or lift the person to safety using a dry wooden
pole, a dry rope, or some other insulating material. Do not use any metallic objects to move this person.
After the injured person is no longer in contact with the electrical source, obtain/perform immediate
medical attention.

1.2 INTRODUCTION
The TELCOSAT RBB 850 is a bidirectional amplifier system consisting of UPLINK and DOWNLINK
amplifiers.
When conventional cellular communication systems cannot penetrate a structure, or reach a target
area, such as inside buildings, parking structures, tunnels and remote areas, other methods and or
equipment are required.
To overcome coverage issues cellular repeaters can be deployed. Repeaters manufactured by Telcosat,
Model RBB850 will alleviate many of these coverage issues.
The Telcosat RBB850 repeater has full remote control, monitoring and alarm feature, accessible over the
Internet or IP network. The RBB850 has an internal web interface and a user friendly GUI software
interface.
The GUI interface (Graphical User Interface) controls all functions of the repeater.
The RBB850 repeater also comes with digital power control and oscillation detection and control.

CHAPTER 2
OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
2.1 GENERAL
The TELCOSAT RBB 850 provides service at cellular radio frequencies 824/849MHz & 869/894MHz.
Downlink RF signals from a donor cell site are routed through a pick-up antenna, through a Diplexer
then continues to be process by the amplifier chain. The RF signal is amplified and filtered to reject out-
of-band IM products and unwanted radio signals. The downlink RF is injected into a fill-in antenna
(coverage antenna) for null-area coverage.
The Up-link signals from mobile units are received into the coverage antenna of the repeater. The
incoming signal then passes through a Diplexer, then amplified in the Up-link modules and finally the
power amplifier. The Up-link process is the same as the Down-Link process.
2.2 OSCILLATION DETECTION
The RBB 850 has an oscillation detection function. Upon detection of oscillation the repeater will shut
down for a short duration, approximately 25 seconds. After 25 seconds the repeater will restart, reduce
the RF gain and determine if the repeater is stable. The repeater will continue this process until the
oscillations is eliminated. If oscillation cannot be eliminated the repeater will activate the disable mode
and will cease to transmit.
The repeater requires a power cycle to reset the auto oscillation detection process, or alternatively the
repeater can be reactivated via the GUI web interface.

CHAPTER 3
INSTALLATION
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
3.1 WARNING
Cellular Repeaters should be installed by fully trained technicians. Improper installation and excessive
RF power levels can cause interference with the operation of cellular towers.
Antennas must be mounted in a secure safe manner and according to safe working practices.
To protect your equipment, lightning protection hardware is recommended when installing a cellular
repeater unit.
Antennas must not be installed near overhead electrical power lines as this can cause serious injury
and or death.
