Record Keeping
After installation, record the following items for ongoing maintenance and future troubleshooting.
Keep a record for each end of the radio link and store a copy of these records at the radio location, at
the opposite end radio location, and a central record storage location.
• GPS coordinates for antenna locations at each site
• Antenna heights above ground level (AGL), as mounted
• Antenna model numbers, serial numbers, and specifications
• Antenna polarization as mounted
• Length/type of primary transmission lines at each site
• Model number and serial number of RF lightning arrestors
• Length/type of secondary transmission line(s)
• Transmitter output power setting as installed at each site
• RSL as measured after antenna alignment at each site
• Designed RSL per original design at each site
• RSL reading with far-end power off (from each end)
• Spectrum analyzer plot with far end off at each site
• Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR)/return loss at radio’s antenna connector at each site
• Radio’s network management IP address at each site
• Radio’s network management gateway address at each site
• Radio’s operating frequency, bandwidth setting, and mode of operation
• Optionally purchased extended warranty and/or emergency service contract details
In addition, certain information may be desired for central record-keeping only:
• Link security codes and log in passwords (stored in a secure place)
• Photographs of complete installation
• End-user sign-off/acceptance documentation (if any)
• Photo of product identification label (part number, serial number, MAC address information)
• Electronic copy of radio’s configuration file
• Electronic copy of radio’s installed software
