Installation
Introduction
This chapter contains unpacking, inspection, and installation instructions for installing and powering up the
RMR.
Site Survey
Powerwave recommends that a site survey be performed prior to equipment ordering or installation.
Performing a detailed site survey reduces or eliminates installation and turn-up delays. Pay particular
attention to power plant capacity, cooling needs, floor space, and RF/DC cabling/breaker requirements.
Cabinet dimensions and weights are listed in Chapter 5.

RMR Rack Location
The RMR is designed for use in an indoor, temperature controlled environment mounted on a 19 inch rack as
supplied by the customer. A preferable site for the RMR is a location free of obstructions, easily accessible
and allows for proper air-flow and ventilation.
Connections
This section describes general examples of how to connect the input and output ports on the RMR.
Main Power and Grounding

EN and UL/cUL regulations. This is, however, only valid if a classified power cord is used. For the Nexus FTto
meet these regulations you must select one of the following classified and approved cord types:
❑ EN – H 05 W5 - F HMR
❑ UL – AWM Style 2587
❑ CSA– AWM 1 A/B 11 A/B
WARNING: For RMRs supplied from the main power source, the main outlet must be
grounded.
