Proper installation can ensure optimum performance and reliability of the HQT repeater and, therefore,
pre-installation planning is required. This includes considering the mounting location of the equipment
in relation to input power and antenna. Also to be considered are site environment conditions,the
particular mounting method (several available), and the required tools and equipment.
If this is the first time installing this type of equipment, it is highly recommended that be sure to read
the following installation requirements and instructions carefully before beginning the actual installation.
General Installation
Pre-Installation Overview
The information below is an overview for installing the HQT repeater and auxiliary equipment.
Pay particular attention to environment conditions at the site, ventilation requirements, and
grounding and lightning protection in pre-installation.
Unpack and inspect the equipment.
Mechanically install the equipment at the site.
Make necessary electrical and cabling connections, including the following:
-
AC input power cable.
-
Connect coaxial cables to TX and RX antenna.

Perform a post-installation function check test of the equipment, to verify proper installation.
Environmental Conditions at Intended Installation Site
The repeater may be installed in any location suitable for electronic communications equipment,
provided that the environmental conditions do not exceed the equipment specifications for temperature,
humidity and air quality.
Operating Temperature Range
-30°C (-22°F) to +60°C (+140°F) – the temperature surrounding the repeater. (It refers to the temperature
in the cabinet if the repeater is mounted in a cabinet.)
Humidity
At or below RH of 95%, non-condensing at 50°C (122°F).
Air Quality
Air quality (rack mount): Airborne particulates level must not exceed 25
μg/m
