Safety Information

Section 1.3.1

RF Exposure

The WiN5100-series and WiN5200-series ODU CPEs are compliant with the requirements set forth in CFR
47, section 1.1307, addressing Radio Frequency (RF) exposure from radio frequency devices as defined in
OET Bulletin 65. The emitted radiation should be as little as possible. To achieve minimum RF exposure, install
the CPE when it is configured not to transmit and set it to operational mode remotely, rather than enabling
transmission by the installer on-site. For maintenance of the CPE, or other operations which require RF
exposure, minimize the exposure time according to the regulations set by the FCC or the regulations relevant to
the country of installation.
For WiN5149/WiN5249 and WiN5158/WiN5258, always install the antenna at least 0.65 m from people and
public areas. For other models, always install the antenna at least 0.39 m from people and public areas.
Section 1.3.2

Lightning Protection

When the ODU CPE is installed in an outdoor location, all indoor components (Ethernet connections and power
supply) should be connected through a lightning protector.
Lightning protection is intended to protect people and equipment located indoors from lightning that might strike
the ODU CPE or its outdoor cables. The lightning protection device should be installed indoors, as close as
possible to the point where the cables enter the building. The lightning protector can be installed outdoors as
long as the cables leading from it to indoor equipment are well protected from lightning between the box and the
building entrance.
Section 1.3.3

Power Cord Protection

The ODU CPE should always be connected to a supported Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector.
NOTE
The WiN5100-series and WiN5200-series ODU CPEs are non-standard PoE devices. Do not attempt
to use third-party PoE injectors. The use of any other type of connection or application of the ODU CPE
and/or WiN1010 data adaptor is not permitted.
Route all power supply cords so that people cannot walk on them or place objects on or against them, which can
pinch or damage the cords.
