General Hazards
Topic Explanation
Chassis Earthing
The G1 chassis earth must be connected directly to the DC supply system earthing conductor, or to a bonding jumper from an earthing
terminal bar, or bus to which the DC supply system earthing is connected.
Protection from RF
Exposure When installing, servicing or inspecting an antenna always comply with the following:
• Locate the antenna such that it does not infringe the RF Exposure Limit Distance, relating to the Compliance Boundary General Public.
• Stay aware of the potential risk of RF exposure and take appropriate precautions.
• Do not stand in front of or look into an antenna without first ensuring the associated transmitter or transmitters are switched off.
• At a multi-antenna site ask the site owner or operator for details of other radio services active at the site and for their
requirements/recommendations for protection against potentially harmful exposure to RF radiation.
•
When it is not possible to switch transmitters off at a multi-antenna site and there is potential for exposure to harmful levels of RF
radiation, wear a protective suit.
Fiber Optic Cables •
Handle optical fibers with care. Keep them in a safe and secure location during installation.
• Do not attempt to bend them beyond their minimum bending radius.
•
Protect/cover unconnected optical fiber connectors with dust caps.
Grounding Connections Reliable grounding of the G1 chassis must be maintained.
Mains Power Supply
Routing
G1 DC power is not to be routed with any AC mains power lines. They are also to be kept away from any power lines which cross them.
Maximum Ambient
Temperature
The maximum ambient temperature for the G1 product is 55 degrees C. To ensure correct operation and to maximize long term component
reliability, ambient temperatures must not be exceeded. Operational specification compliance is not guaranteed for higher ambients. G1
should be mounted in such a way as to permit the vertical free flow of air through its cooling fins.
Mechanical Loading
When installing the G1 on a tower, ensure that the tower is securely anchored. Ensure that the additional loading of devices will not cause any
reduction in the mechanical stability of the tower.
Power Supply
Connection
G1 operates from a nominal -48 VDC power supply.
Power Supply
Disconnect
An appropriate power supply disconnect device should be provided as part of the installation.
Rack Mount
Temperature
Considerations
G1 is designed to operate in an outdoor environment with no significant obstructions in front of the radome. Do not install G1 in a closed or
multi-unit rack assembly, because such a closed rack would impede the propagation of the RF signals. The maximum ambient temperature
applies to the immediate operating environment of the G1 product.
