Equipment Location Guidelines

This section provides key guidelines for selecting the optimal installation
locations for the various BreezeNET B system components.
NOTE
ONLY experienced installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety codes
and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities should
install outdoor units and antennas.
Failure to do so may void the BreezeNET B product warranty and may expose the end user or
Service Provider to legal and financial liabilities. Alvarion and its resellers or distributors are not
liable for injury, damage or regulation violations associated with the installation of Outdoor Units or
antennas.
Select the optimal locations for the equipment using the following guidelines:
The outdoor unit can be either pole or wall mounted. Its location should
enable easy access to the unit for installation and testing.
The higher the placement of the antenna, the better the achievable link
quality.
ODU units with a detached antenna (D model) should be installed as close as
possible to the antenna.
The ODU outdoor unit with its integrated antenna (or the detached antenna)
should be installed to provide a direct, or near line of sight with the antenna
of the other side.
The indoor equipment should be installed as close as possible to the location
where the indoor-to-outdoor cable enters the building. The location of the
indoor equipment should take into account its connection to a power outlet
and the CPE.
