Installation
Introduction
This chapter contains unpacking, inspection, and installation instructions for installing and powering up the
Nexus FT 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.
Unpacking and Inspection
This equipment has been operated, tested, and calibrated at the factory. Carefully open the container to
remove the equipment. Retain all packing material so it can be reassembled in the event the unit must be
returned to the factory. Perform the following steps:
Visually inspect equipment for damage that may have occurred during shipment. If possible, in the
presence of the delivery person, if possible.
Check for evidence of water damage, bent or warped chassis, loose screws or nuts, or extraneous
packing material in connectors.
If the equipment is damaged, file a claim with the carrier once the extent of the damage is assessed.
If the equipment must be returned to the factory, please contact the factory for a Return Material Authorization
(RMA). See Chapter 4.
