Confidential & Proprietary 7/57 Alliance-TR
Safety & Certification Notice
Only qualified personnel should handle and install the DAS equipment. Any person involved in installation
or service of the DAS should understand and follow these safety guideline:
1. Obey all general and regional installation and safety regulations relating to work on high voltage
installations, as well as regulations covering correct use of tools and personal protective
equipment.
2. The power supply unit in repeaters contains dangerous voltage level, which can cause electric
shock. Switch the main power off prior to any work in such a repeater. Follow any local
regulations when servicing repeaters. Never install or use electrical equipment in a wet location
or during a lightning storm.
3. When working with units outdoors, make sure to securely fasten the door or cover in an open
position to prevent the door from slamming shut in windy condition.
4. Use this unit only for the purpose specified by the manufacturer. Do not carry out any
modifications or fit any spare parts which are not sold or recommended by the manufacturer.
This could cause fires, electric shock or other injuries.
5. Do not operate this unit on or close to flammable materials, as the unit may reach high
temperatures due to power dissipation.
6. Do not use any solvents, chemicals, or cleaning solutions containing alcohol, ammonia or
abrasives on the DAS equipment. Alcohol may be used to clean fiber optic cabling ends and
connectors.
7. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber or directly into the optical transceiver of any digital
unit. Use an optical spectrum analyzer to verify active fibers. Place a protective cap over any
radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector to avoid the potential of radiation exposure.
8. Allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing without severe bend.
9. For pluggable equipment, make sure to install the socket outlet near the equipment so that it is
easily accessible.
10. SOLiD recommends powering the system through wiring installed in a normal building. If
powered directly from the main power distribution system, SOLiD recommends using additional
protection, such as overvoltage protection device.
11. Ground terminals located on the rear of a 1.0mm2 (16AWG) or more wires using permanently
connected to earth.
12. Ensure only authorized service personnel can gain access to the system and understand all
precautions related to handling or installing the equipment. SOLiD recommends using a lock and
key or other means of security to control access to the system.
