Installation Guidelines
5.1
Important Installation Guidelines
•
The PS71090E Signal Booster is designed for indoor use only.
•
The PS71090E Signal Booster must be installed in a vertical orientation (i.e.
Connectors on the bottom of the unit).
•
Inadequate isolation between the outside and inside antennas may cause
regenerative feedback in the system.
This feedback can cause the amplifier to emit a continuous signal at maximum
amplitude, and, in some cases, interfere with normal operation of the donor site.
Careful consideration of the layout and placement of the system is imperative to
minimize this possibility and to minimize the amount of signal leaking from the
building.
•
Do not disassemble the Signal Booster.
DANGER!
•
Refer to the 1.3 Safety Guidelines section for proper antenna selection and
installation. To avoid serious injury, death and/or damage to the Signal
Booster, do not install donor or server antennas near overhead power lines
or high power components. Allow enough distance so that falling antennas
would not come in contact with those components.
•
Electric shock may occur if the Signal Booster is installed in close proximity to
water.
WARNING!
•
Amplifier or handset damage may occur if a handset is connected directly to
the Signal Booster or to the coax that leads to the Signal Booster.
•
The PS71090E Signal Booster must be connected to ground for protection.
•
We recommend that installers do not wear jewelry or metal accessories
when installing this Signal Booster.
•
Do not place cables or tools that may damage the Signal Booster in close
proximity to it.
•
Check the installation site for hazardous conditions such as water-covered
floors or badly worn or damaged cables prior to installation.
