Preparing for installation
This section describes the checks to be performed before proceeding with site
hardware installation.
Use the installation report to determine which installation options are required. Refer
to PTP LINKPlanner on
page 2-8.
Unit pre-configuration
It is common practice to pre-configure the units during staging before site installation
by performing the following tasks from Chapter 6 Configuration and alignment:
Connecting to the unit on page 6-3
Upgrading firmware version on page 6-10
Using the installation wizard on
page 6-14
If the units are to be pre-configured during staging, the safety precautions below
MUST be observed.
Safety precautions
All national and local safety standards must be followed while developing a site,
installing equipment, or performing maintenance.
WARNING
Ensure that personnel are not exposed to unsafe levels of RF energy.
The units start to radiate as soon as they are powered up. Respect the
safety standards defined in Compliance with safety standards on
page 4-22, in particular the minimum se
paration distances. Observe
the following guidelines:
o Never work in front of the antenna when the ODU is powered.
o Always power down the PoE power supply when connecting and
disconnecting the drop cable from either the PoE power supply or ODU.
