Network port
distributors
 Suitable electrical network port distributor should be available.
 The exact location of the network port distributor, as well as the network
ports to reserve, should be known prior to installing the equipment.
 Also, all the reserved ports on the network port distributors should be
qualified and tested before realizing the network connections with the
equipment.
Power supply
cable routing
Routing of AC or DC power supply power cable should be implemented as
prescribed by the local regulations regarding outdoor electrical installations.
Cable conduits
Appropriate cable conduits should exist for the routing of installed cables.
Grounding
Ensure the following:
 To make a protective earth connection, use the grounding point located
close to the radio unit.
 A grounding point (designated GND) should be located close to the
mounting position of the radio unit (0 to 2 m max).
 The grounding point must be connected to grounding cable at least
16 mm
2
diameter.
 An appropriate, low-resistance grounding system as specified by the local
regulations is required.
 The equipment will be connected to this grounding point, via the supplied
grounding cable. This can also provide partial protection against
Lightning-induced current. For additional protection against lightning LSPs
required to be used. For more information regarding the installation of
LSP/PSP please refer to item 1 of Reference manuals on page 14.
Lightning and
surge
protection
In case additional protection against lightning is required for the radio the
following should be applied:
A: For Ethernet (S-FTP) Cables:
Lighting surge protection device (LSP) is required to minimize equipment
damage from lighting induced surges.
B: Power Supply Cables (for power injectors):
A power surge protection device (PSP) is required to avoid equipment
damage from lightning induced surges or power supply surges.
For more information regarding the installation of LSP/PSP please refer to
item 1 of Reference manuals on page 14.
