MM-015039-001, Rev. A 1 REGULATORY AND SAFETY INFORMATION 1.1 SAFETY SYMBOL CONVENTIONS The following conventions are used throughout this manual to alert the user to general safety precautions that must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the product. M/A-COM, Inc.
MM-015039-001, Rev. A 7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. 8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong.
MM-015039-001, Rev. A 1.3 MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS DO NOT TRANSMIT with this base station and antenna when persons are within the MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE) Radius of the antenna. The MPE Radius is the minimum distance from the antenna axis that ALL persons should maintain in order to avoid RF exposure higher than the allowable MPE level set by the FCC.
MM-015039-001, Rev. A To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, do not operate the base station in a manner that would create an MPE distance in excess of that allowable by the FCC. CAUTION This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy.

MM-015039-001, Rev. A 3 INTRODUCTION The MASTR V Base Station is a P25 Phase I capable transceiver. The station is fully upgradable to P25 Phase II. The MASTR V Base Station is a digital, IP based, LMR communications base station operating within a compact shelf design. It supports IP-based remote code uploads and configuration. IP-based programming may be accomplished using the Device Manager programming tool.
MM-015039-001, Rev. A 4 MASTR V BASE STATION OVERVIEW 4.1 MULTI-CHANNEL BASE STATION SHELF ASSEMBLY The MASTR V multi-channel base station shelf assembly is a unified subrack design providing 14 identical vertical module slots.
