Repeater Installation
2-4
Ambient temperature in the area where the unit is installed should not exceed 45°C. Be sure that unit
is positioned upright to permit adequate air flow and that nearby equipment does not discharge hot
air directly on the unit. The installation should allow a free flow of air around the outer surfaces of
the chassis. Access to the bottom should be allowed so that input and output connections can be
conveniently made or changed if desired. The unit weighs 19 pounds and may safely be carried and
installed by a single person.
The preferred mounting of the R1910 is on 16” center studs. See mounting bracket installation at end
of manual. If mounting to other surfaces, be sure to use appropriate hardware able to carry 19 lbs.
Before mounting to wall, verify AC power outlet is within 10 feet. Attach the mounting brackets to the
repeater. Screw in the bottom two ¼” X 1 1/2” bolts into studs. Slide in repeater and mark top two
bolt locations. Remove repeater and install remaining two bolts. Slide in repeater and tighten bolts.
Route cable between repeater and lightning suppressor. When routing cable, be careful not to kink,
cut or damage cable. Install connectors using the appropriate tool and connect to lightning suppressor
connector labeled “Protected” and repeater connector J3 Donor. Install connector on cable from
Server antenna and connect to repeater connector J4 Server. Connect power cord.
2-5.5 R1920/30/40 Installation
First verify that the repeater to be installed is within 10 ft of A/C power and POTS line junction box.
The maximum current rating of the branch circuit should be 20Amps. Install mounting plate 450420
to 2 pieces of channel mounted horizontally to tower, using 4 3/8” bolts. If installing optional
battery backup, attach two 12” pieces of channel vertically to horizontal channel directly behind
450420 mounting plate. Attach S-218 shelf to each 12” channel after mounting plate is securely
fastened. Mount repeater to mounting plate and secure using provided bolts. A 12-ft A/C power
cord and modem cable are also supplied with the repeater.
