5 Mounting the ProST
This section describes the mounting procedures for the 1ProST and the optional 1SDA-4S adapters.
Caution: The ProST device is an outdoor radio unit and therefore, must only
be mounted outdoors.
Caution: Mount the ProST in an orientation such that its 15-pin D-type port
(located on the bottom panel) faces downwards. This prevents rain water
from settling on the port, and thereby, avoiding damage to the unit such as
corrosion and electrical short-circuiting.
The ProST offers two optional methods for outdoor mounting:
¾
1Wall mounting
¾
2Pole mounting
For either mounting methods, the ProST provides mounting holes molded into its back panel for
attaching the wall or pole-mounting brackets, as displayed in the figure below.

Note: The standard ProST kit provides wall-mounting brackets. To pole
mount the ProST, contact your nearest Airspan distributor for pricing and
ordering of pole-mounting brackets.
Note: A minimum of 3-meter separation is required between mounted
ProSTs and existing customer radio equipment when transmitting on different
sectors (see figure below). However, only a 1-meter separation is required
between ProSTs when on the same sector and transmitting to the same base
station radio without requiring shielding (see figure below).
The figure below illustrates the minimum separation between mounted ProST's when transmitting
on different sectors:
