Installation requirements 3 Installation requirements This chapter specifies the preparatory requirements for the installation of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station. 3.1 Checking the site The cabinet installation phase requires that the site is properly surveyed and prepared, and that all the required external services are correctly installed. The site survey must identify any special requirements for the installation.
Requirements for Installation and Operation 3.2.1 Nokia MetroSite Base Station dimensions and weight Figure 1 presents the external dimensions of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station. 870 mm (34.25 in) 114 mm (4.49 in) 310 mm (12.20 in) Figure 1. 215 mm (8.46 in) Dimensions of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station cabinet The Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station with four TRXs installed weighs approximately 40 kg (88.4 lb). The mounting rack weighs approximately 2 kg (4.4 lb).

Requirements for Installation and Operation • to remove units from the BTS when it is installed on a wall or pole • to remove and replace the cover when the BTS is installed on a wall or a pole • for cables and for cooling under the BTS Refer to wall mounting instructions in Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station: Installation for more information on using the cardboard template. 3.3 Mounting locations and positions The Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station can be mounted on a wall or on a pole.
Installation requirements Incline by 2 - 3 A) Vertical mounting º B) Horizontal mounting Figure 3. Mounting of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station Note If there is a risk that lumps of snow or pieces of ice can fall onto the BTS (from the antenna or microwave radio pole, for example), an effective roof must be mounted to shield the BTS.
Requirements for Installation and Operation 3.4 Requirements for wall and pole installation The installation wall or pole must be inspected by qualified personnel before mounting the BTS. This is to ensure that the mounting is strong enough to bear the weight of the BTS (maximum 40 kg / 88.2 lb) in its operating environment. Pole mounting kit An optional pole mounting kit is required for pole installations. This kit is ordered separately if required. The pole diameter can be between 60 and 300 mm (2.
Installation requirements 3.5 Grounding To protect the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station from damaging over voltages through antenna equipment, communication cables, or power supply lines, grounding cabling must be planned and installed before installation of the base station. To avoid interference, it is recommended that large grounding systems be designed case-specifically. A electrical plug with a ground connection is not sufficient for the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station.
Requirements for Installation and Operation 3.6 Mains power WARNING The power switch on the power supply unit (PSU) of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station does not disconnect it from the power network (AC or DC), but leaves it in a stand-by mode. The switch has two positions: ON and stand-by. A separate main switch on the site is considered to be the disconnect device for safety and service purposes. Follow the national legislation when working with the power supply.
Installation requirements • BTS configuration • ambient temperature • direction of the temperature change The power consumption is higher when the ambient temperature is decreasing and the heating power of the BTS is increasing. When the ambient temperature rises, the heating power reduces. Consequently, the power consumption of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station at a given temperature varies according to the direction of temperature change.
Requirements for Installation and Operation 3.6.2 Acoustic sound power The fan unit of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station generates acoustic noise. The level of acoustic sound power is dependent on the following factors: • ambient temperature • rate of the temperature change • output power The acoustic sound power level is higher when the ambient temperature is changing rapidly. See Figure 5 for the range of acoustic sound power levels at different ambient temperatures.
Installation requirements 3.6.3 Connectors, cables, and fuses for cable protection Note Prefabricated mains power cables can be ordered from Nokia. Note If you use the prefabricated mains power cable supplied by Nokia, make sure that the power distribution box (mains power supply) is located no further than 10 metres from the BTS’s power supply unit. Table 6 presents the requirements for power supply cables and the recommended mains fuses.

Installation requirements Caution Do not use any paints that contains alkalis, esters, ketones, or aromatic, chlorinated, or fluorinated hydrocarbons. These chemicals may damage the cover and paint containing them can only be used if approved by the manufacturer for painting polycarbonate objects. The selected paint must be UV and weather resistant, and suitable for temperatures ranging from -40°C to +50°C (-40°F to 122°F). For environmental conditions, refer to ETS 300 019-1-4:1992 class 4.1.
Requirements for Installation and Operation 3. Remove any stains and dust from the surface of the cover with an alcoholic or acidic wash, or with water and a mild washing agent. Do not use washing agents that contain alkalis, esters, ketones, or aromatic, chlorinated, or fluorinated hydrocarbons. 4. Rinse with water to remove any residue of cleaning chemicals. 5. Dry the cover parts by blowing ionized air on them to remove electrostatic charges and dust particles. 6.
Installation requirements 8. Spray paint over the outside surface of the cover. Spraying should be done at room temperature with relative air humidity of 50-65%. Note The maximum thickness of the paint should not exceed 100 µm. 9. Dry the parts either in an oven or let the paint dry at room temperature according to the paint manufacturer’s drying instructions. Note The temperature of the drying oven must not exceed 90°C (194°F). 10.
