3-5.2 Mounting of the WAVEXpress/BTS Within the Enclosure
Step 1
Opening the door of the enclosure reveals a swing frame. Opening the swing frame exposes a plate to
which an L-bracket is mounted. This L-bracket is used to hold the WAVEXpress/BTS in position within
the enclosure.
Step 2
Before mounting the WAVEXpress/BTS, ensure that the door of the WAVEXpress/BTS is removed and
that the intra-module cabling within the unit has already been installed. If this is not the case, please
refer to Chapter 2 for a description on how to install the intra-module cabling.
Step 3
Spacers must be added to the WAVEXpress for it to sit flush against the mounting frame. To do this,
mount the two 3/8” thick spacers to the left side of the WAVEXpress using two 10-32 screws for each
plate, as shown in Figure 3-16 : "Mounting of the spacers to the WAVEXpress (only 1 spacer shown for
clarity)" on page 53.
