ELECTRICAL DOWNTILT CONTROL

E
For multiband antennas, electrical downtilt for each band can be controlled separately.

T
A colored knob at the end of the tilt indicator allows change of the tilt without need of a tool. The knob color is identical
Manual Electrical Tilt (MET)
to the corresponding connector color. The manual tilt 'override' function is always available with no need to remove the
Control

A
physical RET motor.

Remote Electrical Tilt (RET) The remote control of the electrical tilt is managed by a Multi-Device Control Unit (MDCU) or a Multi-Device Dual Unit

D
Control (MDDU) inserted in the bottom of the antenna. See details below and refer to the ordering options to see which

I
actuators are available with this particular antenna. A single actuator individually controls the tilt of each band (no need
for daisy chain cables between the bands). This module does not add any additional length to the antenna.

ND
A
RET ACTUATOR

C
Amphenol's RET-READY antennas are delivered with the RET Actuator already installed and pre-commissioned with all antenna parameters. Every
RET device is factory configured and calibrated so the antenna is ready to be used once delivered to the site which means that there is no need for
further installation of RET devices or for programming their configuration or for running a calibration process.
