Installation Prep:
 Unpack the Installation Kit and review its contents:
 Verify you have received the correct equipment for the installation.
 Once contents have been verified, begin labeling the cables for installation.
 Record serial numbers for MEU and CMU.
CMU Installation:
This step will only be performed if the site is using a CMU and a MEU III. Skip this step if
you are installing an MEU I. The following steps are needed for the CMU installation.
 The CMU is normally installed near the Store’s LAN cabinet. The exact location will
vary by Retailer.
 The CMU/MEU power supply and cable will be plugged into an available uninterrupted
power outlet in the immediate vicinity of the CMU.
MEU Temporary Placement:
This step will only be performed if the site is using a CMU and a MEU III.
 The MEU or MEU(s) will be temporarily placed and powered up within 12’ of the
location of the CMU for testing.
Cable Pulls:
Coaxial cable will be run throughout the store from the permanent location of the MEU to
the location of each one of the Tx/ATA and Rx/ARA antennas. The number of cable pulls
for a store should be minimized by combining pulls whenever possible. Perform the cable
pulls as efficiently as possible. The following standards must be followed.
 All cable pulls must adhere to the Retailer Specific installation requirements.
 All cables must be run through the roof girders or as required by the Retailer.
 Industry cabling standards should be followed.
 All equipment installed in the ceiling requires secured, self supporting service loops.
 The maximum supported cable length for transmitters is 110 feet.
 The maximum supported cable length of receivers is 135 feet.
 If two cables are joined together an F to F BNC coupler must be used and properly
secured.
