Installation Guide

AirSpeed 2900 gNB 5G OD Installation Guide

- Poorly grounded tower/antenna sites that can conduct high lightning strike energy into equipment.

- Lack of properly installed lightning protection equipment that can cause equipment failures from

lightning induced currents.

A lighting protection system provides a means by which the energy may enter earth without passing

through and damaging parts of a structure. A lightning protection system does not prevent lightning

from striking; it provides a means for controlling it and preventing damage by providing a low

resistance path for the discharge of energy to travel safely to ground. Improperly grounded

connections are also a source of noise that can cause sensitive equipment to malfunction.

A good tower grounding system disperses most of the surge energy from a tower strike away from

the building and equipment.

To limit the equipment damage due to a lightning strike, the following practices are recommended

for the wireless system:

- Provide direct grounding from the antenna mounting bracket, the radio and antenna and the

lightning/surge protectors to the same ground point at the base of the tower or a ground bus on the

building. Use the grounding screws on the antenna bracket and the radio and antenna for terminating

the ground wires.

- The AC wall outlet ground must be connected to the same grounding system as the eNodeB.

Outdoor Ethernet Cabling

- Ethernet cable connected to should be outdoor grade with UV protection.

- Use shielded out CAT5e (minimum) cabled terminated with metallic RJ45 connectors.

- In order to protect any indoor units, install surge protection circuits on all copper cables on their

entrance to the building.

- Surge protection circuit must use a minimum 16AWG grounding cable.
