Typical connectorized radio deployment
An ePMP connectorized radio site typically consists of a high supporting structure such as a mast, tower or
building for the radio, and an equipment building or moisture-proof enclosure for the indoor equipment
(power supply, Cluster Management Module), as shown here in a typical mast or tower installation. If the
radio/antenna is to be mounted on a metal tower or mast, then in addition to the general protection
requirements (see section
), the following requirements must be observed:
The equipment must be lower than the top of the tower or its lightning air terminal.
The metal tower or mast must be correctly grounded.
