SLR 5000 Series Installation
12.1
Pre-Installation Considerations
Proper installation ensures the best possible performance and reliability of the repeater.
Pre-installation planning is required. This includes considering the mounting location of the equipment
in relation to input power, antennas, and system interfaces. Also to be considered are site environment
conditions, the particular mounting method (several available), and required tools and equipment.
It is highly recommended to read the following before installing this type of equipment for the first time:
• this entire installation section before beginning the actual installation, and
• the Motorola Solutions Quality Standard Fixed Network Equipment Installation manual, R56 (which
can be obtained by ordering CDROM 9880384V83), specifically refer to the information on ground
connection for lightning protection.
12.1.1
Installation Overview
The following information is an overview for installing the repeater and ancillary equipment.
Step-by-step procedures for each of the major installation tasks are then provided beginning in
Mechanical Installation on page 127.
• Plan the installation, paying particular attention to environmental conditions at the site, ventilation
requirements, and grounding and lightning protection.
• Unpack and inspect the equipment.
• Mechanically install the equipment at the site.
• Make necessary electrical and cabling connections, including the following:
- AC input cabling
- Coaxial cables to transmit and receive antennas
- System cables
• Perform a post-installation function checkout test of the equipment to verify proper installation.
Proceed to the Optimization procedures to customize the repeater parameters per customer
specifications (such as operating frequency, PL, codes, and so on.)
12.1.2
Site Environmental Conditions
CAUTION: If the repeater is to be installed in an environment which is unusually dusty or dirty
(and so does not meet the air quality requirements), the air used to cool the repeater modules
must be treated using appropriate filtering devices. Dust or dirt accumulating on the internal
circuit boards and modules is not easily removed, and can cause such malfunctions as
overheating and intermittent electrical connections.
The repeater may be installed in a suitable, restricted access, indoor enclosure in any location suitable
for electronic communications equipment, provided that the environmental conditions do not exceed
the equipment specifications for temperature, humidity and air quality.
