Steel Pole Installation Using Steel Banding
CAUTION! Always wear safety goggles when working with metal banding and when using tensioning tools.
CAUTION! This section describes how to secure a PRU to a steel pole using steel bands. In high earthquake risk
areas, CommScope advises in addition to banding, bolts should be used redundantly to ensure
mechanical mounting capable of surviving severe seismic activity. Typical areas where this attachment
method are suggested are Earthquake Risk Zone 4, per Bellcore GR-63-CORE, section 4.4.1.1. If you have
application specific questions, consult the Wireless Technical Assistance Center (TAC) for technical
assistance (see "DCCS Global Technical Support” on page 124). For information on bolting, see "Pole
Mount Installation Using Bolts” on page 46.
