6.
Attach the WBSn-2450 base station unit (and connected extenders) to the base station unit.
7.
As you tighten the screws, verify that the tilt and direction of the base station unit are correct for the
coverage area required.
Note: In an urban setting, with a high-placed installation, a slight downwards tilt (approximately
8-10 degrees) will help reduce noise and interference.
8.
For extra security, thread the iron cable through the corner hole on the post-clamp, and the middle
hole on the WBSn-2450 unit, securing it with the Caribena provided.
Note: This will provide extra physical security for the WBSn-2450 unit.
Wind Loading Considerations
The Wavion WBSn-2450 weighs approximately eight kilograms, including all mounting hardware. When
the Wavion WBSn-2450 is mounted on a pole, the sail area of the WBSn-2450 is approximately 0.11 m
2
.
The Wavion WBSn-2450 can load a pole with a maximum load of 3400 Newton in wind conditions of 264
km/h (165 mph).
You should evaluate the static and dynamic load bearing capabilities for each assembly and
installation individually.
Connecting Power and DATA
The following describes how to apply power and data to the WBSn-2450 .
Prior to connecting power to the WBSn-2450, ensure that you have read and performed all instructions in
The Wavion WBSn-2450 is equipped with two ports.
•
Use the ETH port to connect the PoE cable.
•
The USB port is for engineering purposes only. Ensure that the USB port is properly sealed with a
plastic cap.
Please also note the following:
Warnings
You must always install an external grounding wire. Make sure you have completed
grounding before you connect power to the WBSn-2450 unit.
This is not a mid-span powered device. Do not attempt to daisy-chain PoE devices.
Note:
National Electrical Codes (NEC) Article 800 requires the use of an Agency Listed (UL/CSA)
Building Entrance Protector for all power and communications cables entering a building.
Article 800 is intended to protect the building and occupants from fires caused by transient
voltage and current surges.
To connect to the data port:
1.
Connect a grounding cable to the grounding terminal and tighten the grounding screw firmly. See
Grounding the Data protection device
for a connection diagram.
2.
Connect the other end of the cable to the nearest grounded metallic body.
3.
Ensure that the power is turned off for the designated circuits.
4.
Unscrew the plastic cap and the cap cover from the Wavion WBSn-2450.
5.
Run a shielded Category 5 Ethernet cable (appropriate for outdoor use) through the cap.
Warning! Ensure that no network cable is plugged into the IN port of the PoE injector.
6.
Connect one end of the Category 5 cable to the OUT port of the Wavion PoE injector.
7.
Connect the other end of the Category 5 Ethernet cable to the ETH port on the Wavion WBSn-2450.
Note: Use a shielded RJ45 8-pin modular plug to terminate the cables at the required length.
