UltraWAVE Micro BTS Installation and Commissioning Guide, Version B 53
Connecting Antennas
The subsequent sections identify the cable routing for the different Micro BTS
antenna configurations that you identified in Chapter 1 - Unpacking and
Configuration Verification. You must install the antennas such that the general
population is kept at least 164 inches from the main beam of the antenna. For
more information on the RF radiation properties of the UltraWAVE, refer to
Section 2.7.6.
Proceed to the appropriate subsection to connect your site-specific antenna cable
configuration.
All RF cabling must be completed with the chassis powered off
and, preferably, with the power cable disconnected from the
cabinet.
Do not disconnect RF coaxial connectors on the Alvarion
equipment or antenna systems while the radio equipment is
operating.
Never place any body part over or look into any RF
connector while the radio equipment is transmitting.
RF signal levels that give rise to hazardous radiation levels can
exist within the transmitter, power amplifiers, associated RF
multiplexers and antenna systems.
