Re-installing the left side access panel
This procedure explains how to re-install the left side access panel. Be sure you have read and
understood Understanding the cabinet installation process
on page 50 before continuing.
Requirements
• 5/32 inch tamper-resistant hex driver
• Thread tapping set with 1/4-20 bit for 3/4 depth
Procedure
1. Retrieve the 12 tamper-proof screws and rubber washers that you set aside when removing the panel.
2. Ensure the left side access panel is undamaged:
Examine the inside edge of the access panel. The gasket on the inside edge must be intact to ensure a
proper seal.
3. Position the access panel and start all screws by hand. See Understanding access panels
on page 9.
Thread the rubber sealing washer on the screw shank before inserting it in the access panel screw hole.
4. Use a torque wrench with a 5/32 inch tamper-resistant hex drive bit set to 18 inch-pounds to tighten all
screws evenly.
At this point, the cabinet is installed on the concrete pad and the left access panel is re-installed.
This procedure is complete. Go to Routing power and backhaul cables into cabinet and closing right side
access panel on page 64.
NOTE
The right side access panel will remain backed away from the
cabinet in order to install power and backhaul cables and conduit.
WARNING
Screws should be started by hand. It is possible to damage the
thread in the cabinet if you use a hand tool or a power tool.
Damaged threads must be repaired or the cabinet will be
improperly sealed and the IP-RN 8000 can be damaged. Use a
thread tapping set to fixed damaged threads. If the thread is
damaged beyond repair, contact Airvana.
WARNING
If access panels screws are not tightened with the correct torque,
water intrusion may occur causing equipment malfunction.
