is the maximum permissible exposure for radio transmitters between 1.5 to 100 GHz for uncontrolled environments.
The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such that it does not emit RF fields in
excess of the FCC recommended limits.
For more information, refer to the Federal Communications Commission guidelines on radio frequency safety, accessible
through their Web site: www.fcc.gov.
2.1 Unpacking the Unit
Carefully remove the equipment from its packing material and set it on a solid surface, such as a table or desk. If it appears
damaged in any way, notify the carrier, and keep all packing materials for inspection by the carrier’s agent.
2.2 Operating Environment
The MA4367 system includes an active cooling fan tray which forces cooling air from the bottom through to the top of the
chassis. For adequate ventilation, a space of 1U (1.75”) should be left in the rack, directly above the MA4367 chassis for warm
air exhaust. It is designed to operate at temperatures ranging from 10 to 40
o
C (50 to 104
o
F). As with all electrical equipment,
operation at excessive temperature accelerates the deterioration of components. For this reason, measures should be taken to
prevent the build up of excessive heat in the rack.
Antenna Requirements
The MA4367 is operated with a user-supplied antenna. Please consult table 2.2A for further information. Mount the antenna
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

( Caution: The antenna(s) used for MA4367 Agile MMDS Transmitter system is to be installed in an
outdoor fixed environment. The antenna is to be mounted on an outdoor permanent structure with a
minimum separation distance of 1.5 meters between the antenna elements and nearby persons.
RF exposure compliance is addressed at the time of licensing.
( The maximum recommended antenna gain is 18 dBi.
