General information about this guide

This guide is valid for the 5G FR2 antennas (3591/01 and 3591/02) and
their associated accessories. In the following, the 5G low-noise block down-
converter are referred to as the LNB antenna.
 These instructions offer a quick introduction on how to install the product.
For more information, please refer to the SRM-3006 operating manual
(3006/98.21).
 Also read the Narda General safety instructions (3300/98.10) carefully
for information about how to operate the LNB antenna in a safe way
together with the unit it is connected to.
 Keep this guide, the Narda General safety instructions (3300/98.10) and
the guide of the basic unit the LNB antenna is connected to, so that they
are always available to all users.
 Only ever pass the LNB antenna and basic unit (SRM-3006) on to third
parties together with the guides mentioned above.

Product description

Two LNB antenna models are available: a directional antenna with high
sensitivity and an omnidirectional antenna. Both antennas include a down-
converter that converts the millimeter wave band from 24.25 GHz to
29.5 GHz into the SRM-3006's receive band. This means that the RF cable
between antenna and basic unit only transmits frequencies up to a
maximum of 6 GHz, which greatly reduces the cable loss compared to a
20 GHz cable. In addition, due to the fact that the downconverter is inte-
grated in the antenna, it can be used with all SRM-3006 devices without any
hardware modifications. Only a firmware update is required, which easily
can be done by the user.
The LNB antennas have a built-in battery, which is independent from the
basic unit. Thus, the runtime of the SRM-3006 is not affected by the opera-
tion of the antennas. The battery can be charged via an USB-C socket.
Connected to a USB power bank, long-term measurements can also be
performed.
Narda recommends to generally connect the antennas to the SRM-3006
using an RF cable.
