Network port distributors
Regarding the network ports provided by the equipment, suitable optical (or electrical) network
port distributors should be available.
The exact location of the network port distributors, as well as the network ports to reserve, should
be known prior to installing the equipment.
Also, all the reserved ports on the network port distributors should be qualified and tested before
realizing the network connections with the equipment.
Outdoor Grounding system
An appropriate, low-resistance grounding system as specified by the local regulations is required.
A grounding point (designated GND) should be located close to the mounting position of the
equipment.
The equipment will be connected to this grounding point, via the supplied grounding cable. This
will provide protection against harmful lightning conditions.
Cable conduits
Appropriate cable conduits should exist for the routing of installed cables.
Outdoor installation requirements

mounted on a mast or on a tower.

The pole, onto which the PoE will be mounted,:
Should have up to 50 mm outer diameter for mounting PoE device onto pole.
Should be perfectly perpendicular to allow correct alignment of the antenna.

Each antenna should point toward the antenna of the remote station, according to the
planned co-ordinates. No obstacles should exist between
the antennas’ beaming lobes.
DC Power requirements for PoE device
The PoE box requires connection to a DC distribution board accommodating one Magnetic
Circuit Breaker (MCB, single-pole, 6 A,80 V dc, B-curve for Telecom Applications).
Power consumption and input DC voltage range are as specified by the manufacturer of the
equipment.
