UL Information The equipment must be properly grounded according with NEC and other local safety code requirements. Reminder to all the BWA system installers: Attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as is practical. AirSpeed 2900 gNB is designed to operate in environmental conditions complying with IP65 and relevant standards. Lightning Protection WARNING: The following notes are general recommendations for the system. The wireless equipment should be installed by a qualified professional installer and must follow local and national codes for electrical grounding and safety. Failure to meet safety requirements and/or use of non-standard practices and procedures could result in personal injury and damage to equipment. A direct lightning strike may cause serious damage even if these guidelines are followed. All outdoor wireless equipment is susceptible to lightning damage from a direct hit or induced current from a near strike. Lightning protection and grounding practices in local and national electrical codes serve to minimize equipment damage, service outages, and serious injury. Reasons for lightning damage are summarized as:
8 Copyright Airspan Networks Ltd., 2021 P/N DUG01085 Rev. A, Nov 2021 AirSpeed 2900 gNB 5G OD Installation Guide
- Poorly grounded tower/antenna sites that can conduct high lightning strike energy into equipment.
- Lack of properly installed lightning protection equipment that can cause equipment failures from lightning induced currents. A lighting protection system provides a means by which the energy may enter earth without passing through and damaging parts of a structure. A lightning protection system does not prevent lightning from striking; it provides a means for controlling it and preventing damage by providing a low resistance path for the discharge of energy to travel safely to ground. Improperly grounded connections are also a source of noise that can cause sensitive equipment to malfunction. A good tower grounding system disperses most of the surge energy from a tower strike away from the building and equipment. To limit the equipment damage due to a lightning strike, the following practices are recommended for the wireless system:
- Provide direct grounding from the antenna mounting bracket, the radio and antenna and the lightning/surge protectors to the same ground point at the base of the tower or a ground bus on the building. Use the grounding screws on the antenna bracket and the radio and antenna for terminating the ground wires.
- The AC wall outlet ground must be connected to the same grounding system as the eNodeB. Outdoor Ethernet Cabling
- Ethernet cable connected to should be outdoor grade with UV protection.
- Use shielded out CAT5e (minimum) cabled terminated with metallic RJ45 connectors.
- In order to protect any indoor units, install surge protection circuits on all copper cables on their entrance to the building.
- Surge protection circuit must use a minimum 16AWG grounding cable.

Locate the serial number of the terminal and record this on your registration card for future reference. Also record the MAC address, located on the product sticker. UL Information The equipment must be properly grounded according with NEC and other local safety code requirements. Reminder to all the BWA system installers: Attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as is practical. AirSpeed 2900 gNB is designed to operate in environmental conditions complying with IP65 and relevant standards. Lightning Protection WARNING: The following notes are general recommendations for the system. The wireless equipment should be installed by a qualified professional installer and must follow local and national codes for electrical grounding and safety. Failure to meet safety requirements and/or use of non-standard practices and procedures could result in personal injury and damage to equipment. A direct lightning strike may cause serious damage even if these guidelines are followed. All outdoor wireless equipment is susceptible to lightning damage from a direct hit or induced current from a near strike. Lightning protection and grounding practices in local and national electrical codes Copyright Airspan Networks Ltd., 2022 P/N DUG01085 Rev. A7, May 2022 9 AirSpeed 2900 gNB 5G Installation Guide serve to minimize equipment damage, service outages, and serious injury. Reasons for lightning damage are summarized as:
- Poorly grounded tower/antenna sites that can conduct high lightning strike energy into equipment.
- Lack of properly installed lightning protection equipment that can cause equipment failures from lightning induced currents. A lighting protection system provides a means by which the energy may enter earth without passing through and damaging parts of a structure. A lightning protection system does not prevent lightning from striking; it provides a means for controlling it and preventing damage by providing a low resistance path for the discharge of energy to travel safely to ground. Improperly grounded connections are also a source of noise that can cause sensitive equipment to malfunction. A good tower grounding system disperses most of the surge energy from a tower strike away from the building and equipment. To limit the equipment damage due to a lightning strike, the following practices are recommended for the wireless system:
- Provide direct grounding from the antenna mounting bracket, the radio and antenna and the lightning/surge protectors to the same ground point at the base of the tower or a ground bus on the building. Use the grounding screws on the antenna bracket and the radio and antenna for terminating the ground wires.
- The AC wall outlet ground must be connected to the same grounding system as the eNodeB. Outdoor Ethernet Cabling
- Ethernet cable connected to should be outdoor grade with UV protection.
- Use shielded out CAT5e (minimum) cabled terminated with metallic RJ45 connectors.
- In order to protect any indoor units, install surge protection circuits on all copper cables on their entrance to the building.
- Surge protection circuit must use a minimum 16AWG grounding cable. DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY Declaration of Conformity with Regard to the R&TTE Directive 2014/53/EU Czech:

UL Information The equipment must be properly grounded according with NEC and other local safety code requirements. Reminder to all the BWA system installers: Attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as is practical. AirSpeed 2900 gNB is designed to operate in environmental conditions complying with IP65 and relevant standards. Lightning Protection WARNING: The following notes are general recommendations for the system. The wireless equipment should be installed by a qualified professional installer and must follow local and national codes for electrical grounding and safety. Failure to meet safety requirements and/or use of non-standard practices and procedures could result in personal injury and damage to equipment. A direct lightning strike may cause serious damage even if these guidelines are followed. All outdoor wireless equipment is susceptible to lightning damage from a direct hit or induced current from a near strike. Lightning protection and grounding practices in local and national electrical codes serve to minimize equipment damage, service outages, and serious injury. Reasons for lightning damage are summarized as:
8 Copyright Airspan Networks Ltd., 2021 P/N DUG01085 Rev. A, Nov 2021 AirSpeed 2900 gNB 5G OD Installation Guide
- Poorly grounded tower/antenna sites that can conduct high lightning strike energy into equipment.
- Lack of properly installed lightning protection equipment that can cause equipment failures from lightning induced currents. A lighting protection system provides a means by which the energy may enter earth without passing through and damaging parts of a structure. A lightning protection system does not prevent lightning from striking; it provides a means for controlling it and preventing damage by providing a low resistance path for the discharge of energy to travel safely to ground. Improperly grounded connections are also a source of noise that can cause sensitive equipment to malfunction. A good tower grounding system disperses most of the surge energy from a tower strike away from the building and equipment. To limit the equipment damage due to a lightning strike, the following practices are recommended for the wireless system:
- Provide direct grounding from the antenna mounting bracket, the radio and antenna and the lightning/surge protectors to the same ground point at the base of the tower or a ground bus on the building. Use the grounding screws on the antenna bracket and the radio and antenna for terminating the ground wires.
- The AC wall outlet ground must be connected to the same grounding system as the eNodeB. Outdoor Ethernet Cabling
- Ethernet cable connected to should be outdoor grade with UV protection.
- Use shielded out CAT5e (minimum) cabled terminated with metallic RJ45 connectors.
- In order to protect any indoor units, install surge protection circuits on all copper cables on their entrance to the building.
- Surge protection circuit must use a minimum 16AWG grounding cable.
