Installation Instruction The Remote Unit, Extension Unit or Master Unit has to be mounted by proffessionel / special trained installer. 1.1. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 1.1.1. Health and Safety for mechanical installation Read and observe the notices in chapter 1.3 Health and Safety. 1. Caution: Risk of injury by the considerable weight of the unit falling. Ensure there is adequate manpower to handle the weight of the system. Caution: Risk of serious personal injury by equipment falling due to improper installation. The installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the electronic equipment and all attached hardware and components. Only use sufficiently dimensioned screws for mounting and make sure the mounting material is adequate for the mounting surface. 2. 1.1.2. Property Damage Warnings for Mechanical Installation 1. Attention: Do not install the unit in a way or at a place where the specifications outlined in the Environmental and Safety Specifications leaflet of the supplier are not met. 2. Notice: Due to power dissipation, the unit may reach a very high temperature. Ensure sufficient airflow for ventilation. When mounting the Node AM4 into a train, a temperature test in maximum configuration (i.e. 4 RF cards) must essentially be made. A minimum air flow of 50 m/h is required where the maximum air flow of the Node AM4 is 220 m/h which will be reached at an environmental temperature of around 45C and above. We suggest to supply the repeater at the air inlet with fresh air and to conduct warm air at the air outlet off the Node AM4 without feedback in order to avoid a 'thermal short-circuit'. 3. Notice: It is recommended only to use the mounting hardware delivered by the manufacturer. If any different or additional mounting material is used, ensure that the mounting remains as safe as the mounting designed by the manufacturer. Ensure that the static and dynamic strengths are adequate for the environmental conditions of the site. The mounting itself must not vibrate, swing or move in any way that might cause damage to the unit. The specifications for stationary use of the unit must not be exceeded. Note: Exceeding the specified load limits may cause the loss of warranty. 4. Notice: Only use sufficiently dimensioned screws for mounting and make sure the mounting material is adequate for the mounting surface. 5. Notice: Observe that for M12 connectors the nominal torque is 1.0 N-m. 6. Notice: When connecting and mounting the cables (RF, mains, ...) ensure no water can penetrate into the unit through these cables. 7. Notice: Do not operate the repeater without terminating the antenna connectors. The antenna connectors may be terminated by connecting them to their respective antennas or to a dummy load. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by CommScope, CommScopes general limited product warranty
