Installing the RTN 310
4
Installing the RTN 310 at a 2x(1+0) Aggregation Site
1.
Cover unused ports with caps/PG covers. Retain removed caps for future use.
2.
Before installing the RTN 310, remove the protective cover and film on the antenna port. Otherwise, signal transmission will be affected.
3.
Different methods can be used to change the polarization direction of antennas. If the method provided in this document is not suitable for the type of antennas you have, use the method provided in the installation manual delivered with your antennas.
4.
The default polarization direction of antennas is vertical. If the planned polarization direction is horizontal, change the polarization direction to horizontal.
5.
If an antenna with a diameter of 0.6 m or less is used in a direct mounting scenario, you may install the RTN 310 on the antenna and then hoist them both into position on the tower.
6.
Before installing a cable, bind the cable section that links the cable connector to the pole. This will protect the cable connector from damage. Be sure that the length of cable running from the binding point to the RTN 310 is sufficient to attach the cable connector to the
Ethernet service port on the RTN 310.
Installation procedure
1
Follow the antenna installation guide to
install the antenna.

Install a GE cable.
•Install a GE cable.
• Select a ground point for the GE cable.
• Install a ground clip.
• Lay out the GE cable.
•Attach a yellow label to the cable
according to the plan.
