INSTALLTHERFMODULE(S)

ThefollowingsectionsguideyouthroughtheinstallationofanRFModuleintoaPRUchassis.Theprocessto

installthefourdifferenttypesofRFModulesisbasicallythesame;however,differencesarenotedandshouldbe

followed.

NOTE: Inthefollowingsteps,theRFcablesandconnectorsarereferredtoasMODNTX0/RX0andasMODN

TX1/RX1whereNequalsA,B,C,orD.

NOTE: WheninstallingRFModules,populatetheRFModulesfromhighestfrequencybandtolowestwithinthe

PRU.Likewiseforpoweroutput,populate

fromthebottombaytothetop;higheroutputtolower

output.Thatis,foradeploymentwith210040W,190040W,85020Wand70020WMIMO,installthe

RFModulesasfollows:

• 210040WRFModuleinBayA

• 190040WRFModuleinBayB

• 85020WRFModuleinBayC

• 70020WMIMORFModuleinBayD.

SafetyPrecautions

CAUTION! Thisisrestrictedaccessequipmentandonlyqualifiedservicepersonnelshouldserviceandoperatethisequipment

usingappropriatetools.

CAUTION! Wetconditionsincreasethepotentialforreceivinganelectricalshockwheninstallingorusing

electrically‐poweredequipment.Topreventelectricalshock,neverinstalloruseelectricalequipmentinawet

locationor

duringalightningstorm.

CAUTION! Alwaysallowsufficientfiberlengthtopermitroutingofpatchcordsandpigtailswithoutseverebends.Fiber optic

patchcordsorpigtailsmaybepermanentlydamagedif bentorcurvedtoaradiusoflessthan2inches(5.1cm).

CAUTION! ExteriorsurfacesofthePrismRemoteUnit

maybehot.Usecautionduringservicing.

CAUTION! Servicepersonnelmustconfirmthattheperimetergasketanddoor‐to‐doorgasketsareinplacewhenclosingthe

Prismdoorsafterservicing.

CAUTION! ThisequipmentusesaCla ss1LaseraccordingtoFDA/CDRHrules.Laserradiationcanseriouslydamagetheretina

oftheeye.

Donotlookintotheendsofanyopticalfiber.Donotlookdirectlyintotheopticaltransceiverofany

digitalunitorexposuretolaserradiationmayresult.Anopticalpowermetershouldbeusedtoverifyactivefibers.

AprotectivecaporhoodMUSTbeimmediatelyplacedoverany

radiatingtransceiveroropticalfiberconnectorto

avoidthepotentialofdangerousamountsofradiationexposure.Thispracticealsopreventsdirtparticlesfrom

enteringtheadapterorconnector.

CAUTION! ThissystemisanRFTransmitterandcontinuouslyemitsRFenergy.Maintain3foot(91.4cm)minimumclearance

fromtheantennawhilethe

systemisoperating.Whereverpossible,shutdowntheRANbeforeservicingthe

antenna.
