EE5000 EchoStream High-Power Repeater
Installation and Operation Manual - 03907E
1 Overview
EE5000 high-power repeaters receive, decode and retransmit signals at enhanced power from
Inovonics Wireless nodes. They act as range expanders for any valid Inovonics Wireless
transmission, including signals from other high-power repeaters. Repeaters can be layered as
necessary, allowing Inovonics Wireless systems to scale from small commercial sites to
complete campuses consisting of several buildings.
For applications that require a weatherproof enclosure, the EE5000 may be placed in the
Inovonics weatherproof plastic housing, part number ACC640.

Note: If mapped to an output, the high-power repeater will send the AC loss message to the
receiver or network coordinator when receiving power from the backup battery.

2 Installation and Startup
2.1 Connect Power Cabling
Before beginning startup, power must be connected to the high-power repeater. To connect
power to the high-power repeater:
1. Use a small screwdriver to press the housing release tab on the top or bottom of the high-
power repeater (Fig. 2); separate the housing.
2. Connect power cabling to the Vs and GND connections (Fig. 2).
• Wire should be two-conductor 20AWG (or larger) stranded-tinned copper with PVC
insulation rated to 300 volts at 26°C (80°F). Wire length should not exceed 100 meters
(328 feet).
2.2 Connect Battery Power
The high-power repeater is shipped with a fully-charged backup battery. You will need to
connect the battery:
1. Plug the connector cable from the backup battery into the battery connector (Fig. 2).
2.3 Register the High-Power Repeater
Although the high-power repeater is functional upon startup, Inovonics Wireless strongly
recommends you register it using your receiver, network coordinator or control panel.
Inovonics Wireless recommends all high-power repeaters be supervised.

2.4 Mount the High-Power Repeater
Caution: Mount the high-power repeater in a location removed from metal. Metal objects
(duct work, wire mesh screens, boxes) will reduce RF range.
1. Use the provided anchors and screws to mount the high-power repeater in a location
accessible for future maintenance.
• In large installations, high-power repeaters should be mounted so that every
transmitter has multiple transmission paths to the serial receiver or network coordinator.
This kind of redundancy preserves system integrity in the event of temporary interruptions
of any transmission path in the system.
• For maximum efficiency, high-power repeaters should be mounted with as few obstacles
as possible between it and the receiver, netword coordinator or control panel.
2. Perform a walk test, activating each transmitter assigned to the high-power repeater and
ensuring an appropriate response.
