Installing the RadioFrame System
12
Wire the RFS
All components of the RFS are connected using standard CAT 5 cabling installed
in existing raceways or conduits when available. Use only RJ45 connectors for
system components. The NCU may also be connected to a wireless LAN
(WLAN), and in iDEN installations, the NCU must be connected to the iSC
(integrated Site Controller). All wiring specifications, including acceptable run
lengths and termination points, are listed in the Site Design Specification (SDS).
Wire the RFS according to the Site Design Specification
1 Run CAT 5 cabling between RFS components, and terminate the cabling
according to the SDS.
2 Label all termination points according to the SDS.
3 Test the cabling as specified by the SDS.
Unpacking the RFS
Each NCU, ACU, and RFU is shipped in its own box, and RadioBlades are
shipped several to a box in individually wrapped anti-static packaging. In iDEN
installations, an Ethernet Media Converter may also be provided in its own
container with the cables necessary to install it.
Unpack each unit only at the time of installation—leave items in their shipping
containers until ready for use. Unpacking instructions are contained inside each
shipping container.
