RF Connector Durability
The GSP-1620 modem RF connectors meet all performance
requirements after 500 connect/disconnect cycles at a
maximum rate of 12 cycles per minute.
Materials
The GSP-1620 modem is manufactured of non-nutrient
materials with respect to fungal growth.
Shipping
The GSP-1620 modem as packaged for shipment meets the
pre-shipment test procedures specified in the National Safe
Transit Association, Project 1A.
Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA) Environments
Since the GSP-1620 Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA)
communicates with Globalstar satellites, it must be
positioned outdoors where it has a clear view of the sky.
As a result, environments affecting the DRA include
temperature/humidity, thermal radiation, icing/freezing
rain/snow, altitude, vibration, and mechanical shock. This
section also discusses RF connector durability, materials, and
shipping.
Temperature/Humidity
Operational
The DRA operates as specified during exposure to the
operational temperature/humidity envelope shown in Figure
7-10.
