1.4 

 Prerequisites 

 

1.4.1 Before you Begin  

 

Before installing the Savari StreetWAVE™ Roadside Unit, please ensure that the shipped kit

1

 

contains the contents as described in the 

section 

Various Parts and Functions

 in this guide.  

 

Then, ensure the following: 
 

  The components provided with the RSU are not damaged. The components supplied 

are based on the contents of the order but will at a minimum include the mounting 
hardware. 

  Pull the Ethernet cable up from the cabinet through the conduit to the mounting location. 

  All antennas and Ethernet connectors are disconnected from the enclosure. 

 

The Savari SW-1000 RSU is compliant with the v4.1 US-DOT RSU Specification. It can be 

powered by using any 802.3at compliant PoE device. For any setup efforts related to PoE, refer 

to the setup guides for those specific models (PoE switch and/or injector). 

1.4.2 Identify the Mounting Location(s) 

 

To ensure optimal communication and reach, the RSU requires 'Line-of-Sight' to every 

approach when used at an intersection. If this is not possible with a single unit, multiple units 

may be used (deployed in a hub-spoke topology). For example, one unit can provide north-

south coverage and another unit can provide east-west coverage. Refer to the user guide for 

configuration of RSUs in a hub-spoke topology. 

When procured, by default, Savari supplied antennas are omnidirectional. From time to time, 

Savari may on request supply directional antennas. Before installation, please check the 

antenna specification for optimal installation if a directional antenna is to be used. The 

recommended orientation of the antennas is vertical, pointing to the sky. Site surveys and 

designs are not part of the installation document.

 The Savari stock kit accessory will consist of the RSU mounting bracket. The choice of all 

other accessories is left to the customer.
