RF EXPOSURE STATEMENT
A separation distance of at least 30 cm must be maintained
between the antenna and the body of the user or nearby
persons. When the unit is used consistant with the previous
notice, it conforms to the requirements of FCC Rules and
regulations, sections 1.1307 & 2.19091, as required by section
90.1217.



       WARNING: Use of antennas with gain above 2.1 dBi may
       exceed Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits.

       NOTE: This device is for occupational use only. Oc-
       cupational users are those persons who are exposed as
       a consequence of their employment, provided these
       persons are fully aware of and exercise control over their
       exposure

for use inside buildings, in urban areas, and
in other applications where multipath would
normally cause video tearing or breakup.
All Palladium II Series transmitters are                                                                     PD2

channel spacing. Approximately 400 carriers
are used to transmit video and two channels
of voice and data. Palladium transmitters may
be located on adjacent channels without a
guard band. AES 128-bit encryption ensures
users of secure communications.
The Palladium 5000S is a small, modular
transmitter with a 5W RF power output. It’s
ideal for OEM concealments and short to
mid-range robotic and UAV applications. The
package is only 10” x 10” x 3.625”. All connec-
tions are conveniently located. The Palladium
5000S incorporates a power amplifier bring-
ing total power output to 5W.                                                              9 Pin Connector

Using your Palladium II Transmitter
Follow the instructions given in the Quick Start section on pages 6-7. When power is first ap-
plied to the Palladium, the unit reverts to the indicated channel and RF ON state. The Alarm LED
may be ON, which indicates that there is no active video input.
Changing your Transmitter Configuration
The Palladium Transmitter can store up to 8 different configurations, which can be selected
with the Channel Control. The frequency channels are preprogrammed please contact your
local Sales Manager for more information
