1.1 lntroduction
FX150
The BDU is the heart unit of the FBB UE. lt has several lnterface ports and handles all
communication links between the ADU, primary handset and the local communication
devices such as analog telephone, computer, network equlpment, naνigation
equipment etc.
The BDU is supplied by +12V or +24V DC power supply and it supplies to the ADU νίa a
slngle RF / coaxial antenna cable.
The wlred Primary Handset has a colour liquid crystal display (LCD) and keypad for
making and receiving normal voice calls and sending SMS, which both are similar as
any mobile phone. The handset is provided with a cradle.
Additionally, Ιt can serve as a remote access for an user to access various configuration
supported by the BDU.
The Primary Handset's connector is plugged into the BDU's primary handset port. lt is
powered directly from the BDU.
ln general, any obstructing objects like mast near the antenna unit can block reception
or transmisslon from a satellite's line of sight. ln addltion, RF radiation emitting
from the antenna will affect human body. When selecting a mounting location, it is
important to ensure that the antenna unit shall be free of seνere νibration and shock
and heat and smoke from funnel. More guidelines will be detailed in the next sections.
Radio wave can ρose hazard to human body. Safe distances are changed, subjected to
country and ship construction. There is no standard formula to calculate safe distance.
The below guldelines are to be noted.

WARNING:
κeep away from the antenna radome at the mentioned safe
dlstance when lt ls transmlttlnι. Mlcrowaνe radlatlon can be
harmful to human body, particularly the eyes.
The antenna unit must be mounted as far as possible away from the ship's radars, MF/
HF antennas, communίcation/naνigation antennas, VSAT system and any high power
radio transmltter (lncluding other lnmarsat-based system).
As for a ship's radar (see below), ίt is difficult to proνide the exact minimum distance
between a radar and the antenna unit due to different type of radars in terms of
power, radiation pattern and operating frequency band.
The antenna unit is recommended to be at least 5-meter away from the radar position
and at least ±15" from the radar's νertical beam.

The mountlng position of the antenna unit especially its line-of-sight are possibly
obstructed by any large obstacle in a νessel or ship. This will result in the degradation
of the satellite signal. lt ίs νerγ important to choose the ldeal lnstallation site on the
upρer deck to minimise the satellite blocking.
With the understanding of the large obstacle, it helps ίη the declslon of the ίnstallation
site with the reduction of the physical obstruction.
The antenna unit should be located at least 3-meter away from the ship's mast haνing
a dlameter of less than 15cm.
For FX 150 ADU, ίf the antenna mast is aνailable on the νessel and ίt is free of any
shock or νibratlon, its physical size shall support the welght and size of that FX 150
ADU. An example of the antenna mast ίs illustrated as below.
~ The flange (known as the top plate) of the mast shall meet the dimensions of the
ADU's mounting base, where there are 6 holes.
~ The rubber gasket is required to be inserted between the ADU mounting base and
theflange.
The antenna unlt is carefully unpacked and checked for any damage.
:> Attach the coaxίal cable to the RF connector of the antenna unit's bottom.
:> Position the antenna unit to the mounting location.
~ Ensure the connection of the coaxial cable and wrap it with self-adhesive tape for
water-prooflng.
:> Put the antenna unit οη the mounting flange and use 6 sets of Μ6 χ 20 Hex head
screw bolts with flat washers into the threaded holes of ADU rnounting base νίa
the mounting flange's holes.
:> Tighten the flat washers and screw to the antenna unlt Ιη order to secure it to the
mounting flange.
Alternatively it can be mounted on the long pole. The physical dimension of a long ρole
shall be ρreferably at 2 rneter height with its diameter ranges frorn {ΖΙ35 to φ SOrnrn. Ιη
addition, the optional pole mount kit is available for the rnstallation of the ADU onto
the long post.
~ Flx the holes of mounting brackets with four M4x12mm self-tapplng or machined
screws so that the BDU is being secured.
The primary handset is to be separated from its cradle so that the cradle can be fixed
with the MS χ 12mm self-tappίng screws.
