6. Installation
The PA516 is designed to be installed into standard 19inch rack mount frames or cabinet spaces and is intended for
indoor use only.
Power connection to the unit must be made via the rear IEC connector with the required power capacity. The
equipment must only be used with a properly earthed mains supply.
Cooling air for the unit is drawn in from the front of the unit and is expelled at the rear. Adequate provisions must be
made to ensure that the air flow is not impeded at either the front or rear of the unit. Under no circumstances should
the unit be allowed to become wet.
Ensure that the power source is disconnected before removal of any covers.
Installation Summary
Lightning protection, grounding, and the appropriate torqueing of connectors and the sealing of terminations are all
important facets of any system installation. Careful attention should be given in these areas.
The type of coaxial feeder cables that may be used with the PA516 may vary, but generally their type will be
determined by their length (and resulting insertion loss) and associated jumper/tail requirements.
Always follow engineering best practices for equipment installation.
