May 15 Page 15 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
In a wall mount installation, it is recommended that at least 20 cm of clear space is allowed above and below
the equipment for ventilation.
Equipment rooms as a whole should be checked for adequate ventilation so that they do not overheat.
Correct operation of internal fans should be checked prior to completion of the installation.
Any secondary ventilation equipment (rack fans, grills etc.) should be checked for correct operation and to
ensure that they are free from blockage. Filters are not recommended on enclosures unless they can be
regularly maintained.
MOUNTING LOCATION
A clean and dry location that meets the above ventilation requirements should be chosen for mounting the
equipment. The unit should not be sited where it will be exposed to long periods of direct sunlight.
Provision should be made for bringing the antenna feeder(s), IP cables, station earth and the AC and/or DC
supply leads to the installation. These cables must be firmly anchored, in accordance with good installation
practice and comply with all local mandatory wiring requirements.

fully equipped.
