NSTALLATION
1.2.1 Environmental / climatic requirements
The Base Station is designed for outdoor operation, such that it can be placed in the antenna
mast close to the antennas.
The Base Station is designed to be able to operate at severe environmental conditions.
The Base Station is guaranteed to operate under ambient air temperatures from
–25°C to
+55°C Celsius. Maximum BS422 cabinet temperature is +85°C. Storage temperature for the
BS422 is from
–40°C to +85°C.
Note that the guaranteed MTBF data is valid only within the standard specified temperature
range
Screening of BS422 to specific customer defined temperature range (from -40°C to +55°C
ambient air temperature) is optional upon request.
The Base Station encapsulation complies with IP65
1.2.2 Placement
The recommended placement of the Base Station is as close to the antennas as possible to
reduce cable loss. The placement of the Base Station shall be such that it is securely fastened
to a mast or building that is able to carry the weight of the BS422 and withstand the local
environmental conditions. All cables, antennas etc. shall be properly fastened to the mast or
building using appropriate fixtures as to avoid damage to the equipment and possible injury to
persons.
