Regulatory Considerations for HSUs
Regulatory Considerations for HSUs
When installing an AC powered HSU: To maintain Overvoltage
(Installation) Category II, install a suitable surge suppressor device in the
branch circuit to limit expected transients to Overvoltage Category II
values.
The limits are based on IEC60664 and are also located in Table 2H of
Warning
UL60950 (for mains ≤ 150V, the transient rating is 1500V; for 150V < mains
≤ 300V, the transient rating is 2500V; and for 300V < mains ≤ 600V, the
transient rating is 4000V).
For operation of the RADWIN 55xx HSU under FCC/IC Regulations:
When operating the device with certain 29 dBi dish antennas, the Tx power
may be no more than 23 dBm in the frequency channel 5845 MHz for 5 and
10 MHz channel bandwidth. Please check with RADWIN Customer Service
Caution
for antenna models subject to this requirement.
All other frequencies may operate using maximum Tx power of 25 dBm.
Hardware Installation Workflow for a RADWIN
5000 Sector
Installing the Base Station
Site Survey
The Site Survey is carried out as described in Chapter 3. Recall that the Site Survey has three
main steps:
•
Stage 1: Preliminary Survey
•
Stage 2: Physical Survey
•
Stage 3: RF Survey
Site preparation
Site Preparation includes ‐
•
Obtaining any necessary legal and statutory permits for installation of radio equipment
•
Clearing physical obstructions as far as possible
•
Erecting a mast or tower if required. A mast‐sited ODU typically uses a pole attached to
the mast.
•
Installing a pole on a building wall if required
•
Constructing a weather‐proof cabinet to house a PoE device if it is not to be housed
indoors
•
Ensuring availability of power, typically standard local AC power
•
Ensuring that there is a LAN cable in place from the user's switch to the PoE location
