2.2 SITE PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
2.2.1 SITE PLANNING
Site Considerations
Outdoor equipment is designed to be waterproof, rainproof, and with snow protection. Temporary protection
should be taken when the equipment enclosure is opened for installation or maintenance in an outdoor
environment. The equipment must not be opened for installation or maintenance in bad weather (e.g., gale
storm, rainfall, extreme temperatures, and high humidity)
Installation Location
Mounting surface shall be capable of supporting the weight of the equipment.
To avoid electromagnetic interference, a proper mounting location must be selected to minimize interference
from electromagnetic sources such as large electrical equipment.
Environmental
Humidity has an adverse effect on the reliability of the equipment. It is recommended to install the equipment
in locations having stable temperature and unrestricted airflow.
The installation location for the product should be well ventilated. The equipment has been designed to operate
at the temperature range and humidity level as stated in the product specifications in the datasheet.
Direct sun light exposure to the equipment should be avoided. Provide additional shelter if necessary.
Power Supply
The power supply unit (PSU) provides power to all modules within the equipment. Depending on the product
variant it is recommended that the PSU be operated on a dedicated circuit breaker or fused circuit.
Grounding Requirement
Verify that the equipment has been well grounded. This includes antennas and all cables connected to the
system. Ensure lightning protection for the antennas is properly grounded.
Cable Routing
Depending on equipment configuration, a variety of types of cables are required. Where applicable, ensure
cables are properly routed and secured so that they are not damaged.
Manual Handling
During transportation and installation, take necessary handling precautions to avoid potential physical injury to
the installation personnel and the equipment.
