This following installation rules are based on the assumption that site survey and installation
planning (
including power requirements ) have been completed.
Installation Requirements
The infrastructure preparation consists of two main phases:
A. Floor Planning: Planning the distribution of the antennas on each floor to provide the
required coverage.
B. Telecom Closet Planning: Planning the layout of the devices and cables in the telecom
closet or shaft.
Coaxial Cable Connections
General Cable Installation Procedures
Observe the general cable installation procedures that meet with the building codes in your area.
The building code requires that all cabling be installed above ceiling level (where applicable).
The length of cable from the risers to each antenna must be concealed above the ceiling.
The cable must be properly supported and maintained straight using tie-wraps, cable trays and
clamps or hangers every 10 feet (where practical above ceiling level). Where this is not practical,
the following should be observed:
• The minimum bending radius of the supplied ½” coax cable should be 7”.
• Cable that is kinked or has a bending radius smaller than 7” must be replaced.
• Cable runs that span less than two floors should be secured to suitably located
mechanical structures.
• The cables should be supported only from the building structure.
