    3 Installing the FlexiPacket MultiRadio

    3.1 PrecautionsThe radiation emitted by the antenna is low-power radiation and does not exceed the safety regulations. If the radio is operated without the antenna, the safety limit is exceeded near the waveguide openings.

    f WARNING! RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY. THIS PRODUCT MAY NEED TO BE INSTALLED ON A HIGH-RISE STRUCTURE SUCH AS A TOWER OR MAST. WHEN INSTALLING THE PRODUCT, WEAR A SAFETY HARNESS AND OTHER RELEVANT PROTEC-TIVE GEAR. IN ADDITION, FOLLOW ALL OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY REGULATIONS APPLICABLE TO THE INSTALLATION.

    f WARNING! DO NOT LOOK INTO AN OPEN WAVEGUIDE WHILE THE EQUIPMENT IS OPERAT-ING. DAMAGE TO THE EYE MAY RESULT.

    Before starting the installation, verify that you have the correct equipment (correct Flex-iPacket MultiRadio frequency and subband, correct antenna) and that the equipment has not been damaged during transportation.

    Also note the following prerequisites for installation:

    Transmission and installation have been planned. The far-end radio is installed or the installation space for the far-end radio has been

    planned.

    The following restrictions shall be considered before installing the FlexiPacket MultiRa-dio:

    The weather conditions must be taken into account when installing the FlexiPacket MultiRadio. The maximum and minimum temperatures at the installation location must remain within the acceptable range. For cable installation temperatures, refer to the cable manufacturer's specifications. For detailed information, see the chapter Environment in Product Description for Nokia Siemens Networks FlexiPacket Multi-Radio.

    The mounting pole structure must be stable enough to keep the antenna within its 3 dB beam-width in all foreseeable wind conditions.

    Do not install the FH FlexiPacket MultiRadio at a location where an unauthorised person can have access to the antenna radiation region or to the equipment itself.

    When the FlexiPacket MultiRadio is installed in regions where the temperature falls below zero degrees Celsius during the winter, ice can accumulate on installation tower structures. Take precautions to avoid the breakage of antennas due to falling ice. Suitable protection can be achieved, for example, by installing a metal grating above the antenna.

    HW Install Installing the FlexiPacket MultiRadio

    3.2 Needed partsThe following parts are needed in the normal installation of the FlexiPacket MultiRadio:

    FlexiPacket MultiRadio FlexiPacket MultiRadio antenna Ethernet cable with a Amphenol connector (waterproof) and cable ties Power Supply cable with a Amphenol connector (waterproof) and cable ties 1 grounding kit for FlexiPacket MultiRadio 2 grounding kits for Ethernet cable: outdoor and indoor sides (in addition 1 ground-

    ing kit each 30 m cable lenght after the first 40 meters) 2 grounding kits for Power Supply cable: outdoor and indoor sides (if this cable has

    been provided) (in addition 1 grounding kit each 30 m cable lenght after the first 40 meters)

    t The FlexiPacket MultiRadio can be connected to the Indoor Device by using: 2 cables (1 cable for the Ethernet interface to be connected to the Ethernet connec-

    tor and 1 cable for the Power Supply to be connected to the PS connector). 1 cable only to be connected to the Ethernet connector, if the Power+Ethernet

    solution has been used. In this case the Power Injector must be installed (refer to Chapter 7 on page 115) or the FlexiPacket MultiRadio must be connected to an Ethernet powered port of the Indoor device.

    In case of configurations with 2 FlexiPacket MultiRadios the two FlexiPacket MultiRa-dios must be interconnected with an ODU-ODU cable. Refer to chapter 6.2 Connection example.

    For the Packet application only in case of 1+1 Hot Stand-by and 2+0 XPIC configura-tions the single cable solution can be installed (refer to chapter 6.2 Connection exam-ple):

    1 Ethernet cable connected to the Master ODU 1 ODU-ODU cable between the 2 ODUs 1 Power Supply cable connected to the Slave ODU.

    t The Power Supply cable connected to the Master ODU is an option, depending on the Power Supply solution.If FlexiPacket MultiRadio is installed with a separate antenna, the following additional parts are needed:

    Steps

    1 Use M10 screws and washers to fasten the antenna pole mount on the pole.Remember to fasten the main support part from the other side as well (see figure Figure 6 panels 1 and 2). Do not tighten the screws totally until the antenna align-ment is finalised.

    2 Loosen the mast bolt nuts and twin bolt nuts to set the clamp around the installation pole, then close the twin bolts.

    3 Rotate the whole pole mount towards the far-end station if needed.4 Tighten the nuts using a 13 mm spanner.

    Tighten the nuts to a torque of 22 Nm.

    5 If the vertical deviation to the far-end station is more than 20 Then

    Change the position of the coarse vertical adjustment locking screws (see Figure 6 panel 3) of the pole mount to the upper or lower position, depending on the direction of the deviation. Do this before installing the antenna, if the deviation is known.

    6 Antenna offsetThe pole mount can be installed on either side of the pole by by simply turning the antenna pole mount around (see Figure 7).

    Figure 7 Antenna offset

    4.1.2.2 Changing polarization of the antenna

    SummaryIn order to change polarization of single polarized antennas from vertical (factory pre-set) to horizontal, it will be necessary to rotate the ODU translation plate. This is done by loosening the attachment screws until transition can rotate freely, rotate the transition 90 deg. clockwise and re-tightening the attachment screws.

    t This step can be performed beforehand on the ground to ease the installation.

    f WARNING! - The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to intrabuilding or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 5) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protec-tors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
