Figure B. Typical 7170 IP-Link Transceiver Installation
All wiring and installation must comply with relevant UL installation standards and local
buildings codes. Transformer and its wiring must be protected in conduit and in an AES
1640-ENCL enclosure. Unit must bonded to Earth Ground via the ground lug on PCB.
Customer shall be responsible for design of site-specific conduit detail including but not
limited to the usage of enclosures to house the IP-Link and Surge Suppressor for the
purpose of protecting transformer wiring in conduit.
A. 7170 IP-Link Transceiver:
The 7170 IP-Link Transceiver acts as a remotely installed hub or receiver that forwards
all the signals received from a cluster of AES Subscriber Units to an AES MultiNet
Receiver via a LAN, WAN, the Internet or a backup modem. The MultiNet receiver then
forwards the signals to the appropriate system. This allows the customer to expand their
geographical market reach without direct radio connectivity to the Central Station
Receiver. For AES customers with busy networks, the MultiNet system provides
significantly increased capacity for their IntelliNet system without adding a new
frequency. It also allows adding a new frequency to a RF congested area.
It is housed in a rugged NEMA style enclosure for positioning near the antenna. This
assures minimal RF loss from longer coaxial cables. A battery for backup is located in
the same enclosure. The battery powers the IP-Link Transceiver in event of a power
failure. It also, more efficiently provides extra current the transceiver needs when
transmitting. As with any AES central station receiver a Surge Suppressor is
recommended. Flanges are provided for wall mounting. Approximate enclosure size is
14”h x 11.5” w x 6”d.
